Ivonne's POV
Tobias was returning the next day and I couldn't understand how excited and happy I was feeling. In the few months we had been together it was totally crazy how well I had gotten comfortable with his presence.
Even to the point where I missed him in his absence. My feelings toward him had softened and I found myself relying on him as time went on. He was such a strong and stern figure anyone would love to have.
It all made sense why his people loved him regardless of how severe and brutal he was foretold to be. However that side of him was a part I hadn't had a pleasure of meeting yet.
Dusk had settled in and the night insects creaked in the distance. The song summertime by Benjackson Troy was playing through my phone's speaker.
I was the only one in the house except for the guards who were stationed outside. I had sent Lora and Annalise on a last minute errand. Janetta was close by attending to the flowers while I was in the kitchen.
