CHAPTER 187
Xavier remained unblinking as he stared at her. Their relationship began but Sky was already matchmaking them and speaking of marriage.
She knew how to always get ahead of herself, didn't she?
"We haven't decided yet but, she confessed to me." He had declared that with so much pride and joy in his heart.
That was the only joy since that morning and waking up to find her in his arms.
"Congratulations Your Majesty." Xavier returned her smile. She knew how to lighten one's mood. "And I am happy you are no longer gloomy."
"I..."
"I will be on my way now. I cannot miss a chance to have Raven give me the full details."
She did not wait for him to speak and rushed past him when Xavier called out to her.
"Skylar."
"Yes?"
"I am sorry to disappoint you but it would not be a happy story." His eyes held his emotions. She could see the pain deep in his eyes.
