Kaia stared blankly for a second, her brain taking a moment to catch up. Then, suddenly, her eyes lit up with excitement.

“Same city? Wait, you’re not leaving for the next six months?” Her heart was pounding as she asked the question, breathless with hope.

In this tug–of–war of a relationship, he’d finally surrendered. He simply couldn’t stand it anymore–six months apart had been

unbearable.

Kaia was overwhelmed, too full of emotion to speak. So she expressed it the only way she knew how–by wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him into a long, deep kiss.

Luna waved a hand without even lifting her head. “Just give him a formula. I’ve dried up.”

Serena didn’t dare argue, though she distinctly remembered Luna’s supply had been fine.
