After the disaster of the previous evening, today had to be a better day I told myself as I stepped from the shower. This was my moonlit figure in white, I reminded myself. She had come back for me. We were going to be married. We were just having a few bumps in the road was all. I mean, we had been waiting this long to find one another again, what were a few hiccups along the way to perfection, right?
I dried myself and picked my clothes from the walk-in wardrobe before there was a heavy banging upon my door. A flicker of excitement rippled through me. Had Grace decided to come and find me? Maybe she, too, had seen that last night had just been a slight veer off the road to where we wanted to be?
'Because life is that easy.' Varr chuckled, just as a voice I did not want to hear disturbed my thoughts.
