Raegar ordered the food and watched the server rush off just as Dominique spoke first. ''So why did you choose me? Out of everyone, I thought it would've been Dahlia or Za.''
''Because I feel like I've neglected you,'' he admitted.
A guilty expression appeared on his face as the young woman reached over and grabbed his hand. ''I understand why we haven't done it yet and don't hold it against you, Rae.''
''Really? I mean, everyone else had their turn, but not you.''
''Don't worry about it, handsome,'' Dominique waved him away, a bright smile crossing her pretty face. ''Just make it up to me.''
Raegar nodded, relieved. ''I will and promise not to keep doing it.''

''Our Aethers resonate, and she seems to be interested in me, unlike some of the other girls will be when we return to Drakenwood.''
