#Chapter 28 (Boris) – Runaway Luna
Watching Arina from across the ballroom, Boris knew he was in trouble. She found the paintings that Emlin had done and from her reaction, she knew her mother painted them. Once she noticed the watermark she was stumbling backward and looked to be almost sick.
The only reason she would react like that is if she knew something was going on.
Boris couldn’t get over how much of Emlin was inside of Arina: personality, interests, even her looks.
Arina’s eyes scanned the ballroom until they found Boris.
He thought back to the last day he saw Emlin. It was the day she painted that photo. Nikini was out of town at a conference and Emlin was staying over for a few days. Arina, at the time, was just an infant.
After Boris’s and Emlin’s first night of passion, it was something that neither of them wanted to end. Emlin felt safe with Boris and Boris had felt something he hasn’t felt in a long time.
Happiness.
