Zephyr winced. Cordelia caught the flash of dejection on his face.

She smiled cheekily, her eyes bright like stars, as she asked softly, “Wait for me do what?”

“Wait for you to say yes,” he answered.

“Did I say no?”

Zephyr stared at her.

What did she mean? Did she want him to “force” her?

Cordelia’s blush became more intense, and she whined, “Never mind if you don’t understand it!”

Josiah patted his shoulder. “Hey, Z, what riddle are you two on?”

Zephyr was confused.

“It’s just staying together! Do you have to guess here and there? Since when did you two need so much effort to talk!?”

Realization struck Zephyr. It felt like a jackpot hit him… but he still warily checked Cordelia’s expression. Calming down his thumping heart, he asked her, “Really?”

Cordelia smiled and held his face to look at him.

For someone who was so decisive and authoritative to the outsiders, he acted like a child walking on thin ice in front of her, afraid to upset her.

She suddenly felt a pinch in her heart, and happiness brimmed within her.
