Aurora Blaine's eyes twinkled, "What?"
"I didn't come looking for you quickly because I wanted to take the time to be sure if you were the one for me in this life." Ryan Pierce said.
Aurora Blaine paused in her steps.
Ryan Pierce tilted his head to look at her, his smile unchanged, "Now, you know the answer to that question, don't you?"
Aurora Blaine smiled softly, "Yes, that's why I'm back."
She returned regardless of everything for two reasons.
Maverick Knight and her dreams.
No matter what happens in the future, she doesn't regret this decision.
Ryan Pierce mused, wondering when sweet love would come to her. Today, once again, she found herself envying others' fairy-tale romances.
They arrived at Rosalind Thorne's room door.
Ryan Pierce knocked, "Rosalind."
About a minute passed, and the door opened.
Rosalind Thorne was wearing pajamas underneath a coat, appearing somewhat pale.
Seeing them, Rosalind Thorne showed a faint smile, "You're here, Happy New Year."
