Meanwhile, he couldn’t wait to put his plan into action. Harley would be so astonished and hopefully delighted. Connor would ensure that his plan could proceed smoothly. He was determined that it would be memorable and unforgettable for Harley. 6


Harley spent the next morning and afternoon doing more research at the library, but he wasn’t as exhausted. In fact, he felt energetic by the time he was ready to leave at half past four in the afternoon. He searched for Connor, and eventually discovered the angel occupying one of the tables in a rather secluded corner. Connor beamed at him, and Harley almost lost his breath. There was something comforting about angel, but Harley couldn’t pinpoint exactly what. It felt as if he had known Connor a long time ago, which didn’t make sense. After all, they had accidentally met each other only a few days ago.


“Are you ready to leave?” Connor asked as he stood and returned the book to the empty spot on a nearby shelf.
