Spontaneous Smiles

Aakifahlynn quickly flew off the bed. After eating, she brushed her teeth, showered, and dressed for the day. She wanted to return to visit her parents to tell them where she really was yesterday and give them the news about Jarrod, her father's friend, and Alpha, who was presumed dead.

She knew her father would be thrilled that his old pal was indeed alive. However, she did not want Demarion to know about that development just yet, simply because she wanted to keep some things to herself. Goddess knows how much Demarion has been keeping from her.

Aakifahlynn also planned to keep busy because there was a gala soon, but she had no intentions of attending.

Meanwhile, last night was the most restless night Demarion had experienced, and he had been around for centuries, so that's saying a lot.

And it was not because he slept by Aakifahlynn's door; that had been his norm since she arrived. No, that was not it.
