After Adam left, I followed Sadie into the mansion and there in the luxury living room, I found Lydia pouring herself a glass of white wine.

The moment I saw Theon's caller ID, my heart did a somersault and I took a deep breath before answering.

"Hello?"

"Security said you never came home, where are you?"

"At Sadie's." I answered, glancing at my friend. "Her parents invited me to dinner."

paused, feeling hope on the horizon of my heart. "How soon?"

"Any moment from tomorrow considering there are no hiccups along the way."

"I'm sorry, no." He said and my hope deflated. "Is anything the matter?"

'No. Not at all." I blurted. "Carry on and... thanks for everything."

"And one more thing.."
