Chapter 13

Alek paced outside the apartment nervously, hoping this all hadn’t been a mistake.

He cared for Talia immensely, and even though he hadn’t gotten any closer to figuring out what was bothering him, he wanted to take the next step in wooing her.

Wanted to give her the finest of everything. Wanted to make her his queen.

But how could he when he wasn’t king of anything?

Still, when she looked up at him with those sparkling brown eyes, he suddenly felt like he had all the magic in the world, even with his powers gone.

He pulled at the collar of the uncomfortable suit he was wearing. The man who sold it to him had insisted on tailoring it to fit perfectly. Alek had never felt anything like it and wasn’t sure he was sold on modern clothes if they made him feel this confined.

But when the door finally opened to reveal Talia, he forgot any discomfort at all.

If her outfit was the female match to what he was wearing, he’d wear them anytime at all.

She was stunning, but then she was always stunning. But tonight, she looked completely different from before. She was wearing a dress that hit just below her knees, baring perfect little calves and ankles tucked into little leather boots. The dress was red, showing off her olive complexion, and she had a little black jacket over it as well.

Her dress was cut low in the front, revealing generous cleavage, and Alek couldn’t resist a protective look around to make sure no one in the vicinity was watching.

Talia was for him alone.

How he would keep from being a jealous beast until they were safely alone in a quiet corner of the restaurant, he didn’t know.

It didn’t help that her dark curls were pulled back from her face and drawn into an elegant knot at the side of her neck so that her face was beautifully framed.

Her lips were full and glossy with red paint of some kind, and her cheeks held extra flush. Something glittered just above her eyelashes, making her gaze look bright.

She was a fully modern woman, and she completely had his heart.

He put out an arm for her, wondering if he was in a dream to wake up in another time and have someone so beautiful by his side.

All thoughts of being lord of winter seemed to vanish as he got to be just Alek who was in love with Talia.

She took his arm and walked down to the car he’d hired, a long, black one that Chelle had insisted would wow Talia.

The driver got out to open the door, and Alek tried not to glare at him as he made sure to be the one to hand Talia in. When he got in after her, he had to admit Chelle had a point about the vehicle. The seats were soft, and there was plenty of room to sit together and talk. He could even sit across from Talia, as he was now.

Watching her sitting there so beautiful, he felt something like trepidation.
