"Bound to one fate and by one fate," he whispered.
Elion smiled. I looked at both of them in confusion. What was that about?
"What do you think of the ring?" he asked, moving it back to me.
I stared at the golden ring for a while—brilliant, simple, and elegant, with the simple stone on it catching the light.
"It's beautiful," I said.
Though it looked simple on the surface, I was sure it had cost a fortune… maybe seven or eight zeros.
"Elion, you did a very nice job. I really appreciate it," Adrian said.
I lifted the ring from the velvet. My gaze fell on the inside. "You carved on it?"
"As the Supreme requested," he answered, his low voice inclined as he finished before he strengthened again.
I nodded in understanding, then read the inscription in surprise.
Usually, when names are carved on rings, it has to be the male carved on the female's and female on the male's.
But this ring had our names combined: 'Adella.'
