Chapter 407

The only difference now was that Soren was my boyfriend.

The question I’d been holding onto resurfaced. “Why are you so good at taking care of people? It almost feels like you’ve had practice.”

Soren smiled while smoothing healing cream onto my injuries. “Are you wondering if I picked up this skill from my last relationship?”

“That’s not what I was thinking,” I said.

Again, I was caught off guard by how plain and heartfelt his answer was. But he was right. How hard could it be to care for someone? All it really took was the will to do it.
