CHAPTER TEN

The time was flying by far too fast for Derek. The crazy stunts with Kiera mostly consisted of doing parkour moves throughout the forest and performing their best flips and three-sixties off a waterfall into a cold lake. Ellery had been incredible with Kiera, just as he’d known she would be. He had been missing out on his sister and all of his family for far too long. Being here confirmed it was past time to move back. The castle held a lot of memories of his mum and that was hard, but it was also happy. They were fabulous memories, and his mum had loved him deeply.

The family dinner and time together last night had been ideal. Curt and Aliya had come, and after a delicious dinner and lots of laughter and fun conversation, they’d all used the spa together and messed around in the pool. He and Ellery had even bested Ray and Macey a couple times in chicken wars and Kiera had been ecstatic. T seemed to be doing really well with his healing and was back to working long hours with their dad as the crown prince.

They worked out together, teasing and having fun as always, then ate a leisurely breakfast in the solarium before using the spa for a couple hours, swimming laps, and then they ate lunch near the pool.

After lunch, they went on a long hike to one of the waterfalls he loved. They’d jumped off and swam even though it was freezing cold. Ellery was so great that way. She didn’t care about getting her hair wet, cold water, or her makeup running. He thought of that model, Jaylene, who’d been so snotty behind Ellery’s back. That event had pushed him to love Ellery. She was perfect for him.

Now to convince her of that.

They returned to the castle, showered in their respective suites, and then he walked her down to the garage. She was wearing a beautiful summery dress, white with pink polka dots and fluttery sleeves. It showed off her fit body and gorgeous skin. She’d gushed about all the clothes in her closet. He needed to thank Arianna for doing such a fabulous job. He appreciated seeing Ellery dressed up and being so cute about it, but he thought she was gorgeous sweaty, her hair in a ponytail, no makeup, and in workout clothes.
