Cedric nodded.

“I promise. Now, could you please let me go? Let’s just sit down and talk.” Why was he still holding her hands when they were just having a chat?

“You’re learning fast.” Cedric teased.

She was getting better at identifying his loopholes. He eventually relented and let go of her.

“Maia, you should try their fruitcake cookies.” Aiken quickly took the seat that was next to

Maia.

Maia nodded. As she was about to reach for the cookies, Cedric grabbed one and tossed it into his mouth. Then he turned to her and instructed in a surly tone, “You can’t eat them.”

“They are my gifts. Why can’t I eat them?”

“There’s mango in them, and you’re allergic to mangoes.”

Aiken immediately apologized. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know you had a mango allergy.”

“Who told you that?” Maia refuted and grabbed a cookie.

Cedric stopped her by grabbing onto her wrist. “I know you’re just doing this to spite me, but you shouldn’t joke around with your health.”

His frown deepened as he snatched the cookie out of her hand.

Maia knew exactly what he meant. She bit her lower lip as she recalled being hospitalized from

accidentally eating mangoes.

That day happened to be Cedric’s birthday. Zera had bought a mango cake for him. Maia knew very well about her allergy, yet she still ate a slice of the cake.
