Chapter 29: The Necklace
So, this awkward silence between them felt more strange than the water holding Nadeira in its glow.
She stayed in the pond, her nightgown was clinging to her skin, the moonlight brushed over her shoulders…exposing the shining parts.
The three princes were at the edge…they looked at her like she was some hidden treasure they had stumbled upon.
Orrisian's gaze felt like it was burning holes into Nadeira.
Caspian was quiet but searching her face, like he wanted to read her thoughts without asking.
Nyxmaris, of course, just moved his head with that wicked grin that always made her blood react.
And then, he whistled low. "Well, well. If this is what you look like drowning in moonlight, little flame, you should do it more often."
"Shut up," she snapped, as her cheeks started heating. The water was up to her chest, but it didn't matter since his stare burned hotter than the glow around her.
