Chapter 130
Snow and I stepped out of the car, and as Snow escorted me to my room, I couldn’t shake the warmth that had settled in my chest.
Was this love?
I mean, I once loved Ivan, but after his cruel betrayal, I saw myself as level-headed with my feelings but meeting Snow proved I had more work to do on myself.
The mansion was quiet as we climbed the stairs, proof that Aira and Storm weren’t back or even if they were, sleeping would be the best course of action given that Storm had school the next day.
When we reached my door, he paused, his gaze lingering on me. "Goodnight, Zara," he said, his voice low.
"Goodnight, Snow," I replied, watching as he turned and walked away.
I stepped into my room, closing the door behind me. Tonight was unforgettable, and as I crawled into bed, my heart felt full in a way it hadn’t in a long time.
Suddenly my phone screen lit up, signalling a text message I hadn’t expected and from...
"Zade," I gasped almost in shock. I wasn’t expecting him to contact me but I guess our conversation left quite an impression on him.
Zade: I had a wonderful day. Thanks, Zara, it was nice talking to you.
My eyes brimmed with joy as I typed a response.
Zara: Same. Happy to be of help. Have a good night, Zade.

~Zara’s POV~
The soft morning light poured through my window as I stretched lazily in bed. The events of the previous night still swirled in my mind—the meteor shower, the laughter, and that unexpected text from Zade.
I had barely finished my breakfast when my phone buzzed again. Picking it up, I noticed Zade’s name flashing on the screen.
"Good morning," his voice came through warm and steady.
"Morning, Zade," I replied, smiling despite myself.
"Are you free today? There’s something I think you’d enjoy seeing."
I hesitated, glancing toward the hallway as if expecting Snow to appear. "What is it?"
"It’s a surprise," he said with a chuckle. "You’ll love it. I’ll pick you up in an hour."
Before I could respond, he hung up, leaving me slightly puzzled but intrigued. True to his word, Zade arrived exactly an hour later; his car pulling into the driveway smoothly mirroring his personality.
As I stepped outside, he leaned casually against the driver’s side, his sharp blue eyes scanning me briefly before nodding in approval. "Ready?"
I nodded, climbing into the car.
Snow’s POV
Then, as though his anger shifted, Glacier narrowed his eyes at me in or subconscious. "What’s the matter, Snow?" he teased knowingly.
"It’s nothing," I muttered, returning to my chair. "She’s just getting some air."
"Right," Glacier replied, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "Well, friend or foe, that fresh air doesn’t sits well with us. She’s ours."
To Glacier’s surprise, I sighed, my mind flashing back to the memory of her telling me about how I do not own her in the contract. freewёbnoνel.com
"Being married to me doesn’t remove her right to mingle."
"But not when Zade excludes us and Zara didn’t inform you."
"Fun, right," Glacier scoffed. "Fix this, Snow. Either claim her or lose her. And I won’t sit for the latter either. Do the right thing or I take over and do it for us."
