Chapter 332

~Zara’s POV~

It had been a few days since Kane and Ivan’s deaths, and yet the air around the house was still heavy.

Gloomy.

Even with no immediate threat from Thorned Crescent, there was this unshakable feeling that we were all just waiting.

Waiting for the next storm to hit.

For once, I just wanted things to feel normal again. I blinked, trying to shake off the sleep.

I stirred awake, groggy but slowly pulling myself into consciousness. The bed beside me was empty, the warmth of Snow’s presence already faded.

Frowning, I sat up, rubbing the sleep from my eyes.

Just then, the bedroom door swung open and Snow walked in, holding a small cake in one hand and a magazine in the other.

I blinked. "What’s this about...?" I asked, eyeing the items suspiciously.

Snow smirked, walking toward the bed. "With everything that’s been happening, I figured it was time to lighten the mood."

I raised an eyebrow. "With cake and... reading material?"

He chuckled, setting the cake down on the nightstand. "Not just any reading material." He held up the magazine. "I recall I promised you a honeymoon. I haven’t forgotten."

My heart did a little flip.

Before I could say anything, he sat beside me and placed the magazine in my lap.

"Pick anywhere you want to go," Snow urged. "I’ll make it happen."

I stared at him, warmth spreading through my chest.

After everything we had been through—the fights, the betrayals, the chaos—he was still here, still thinking about making me happy.

A slow smile tugged at my lips. "Anywhere?"

"Anywhere," he confirmed.

I flipped through the glossy pages, images of exotic beaches, towering mountains, and luxury resorts staring back at me.

"I can’t even remember the last time we had a real vacation," I admitted, running my fingers over a picture of a tropical island.

Snow hummed. "That’s why I’m making it happen. Just you and me, away from everything."

His hand reached out, tilting my chin up so I was looking at him. "We deserve this, Zara."

Something in my chest tightened.

We did but... Snow must have sensed the hesitation in my eyes and he quickly held my hand in his.

"My love, I know."

I shook my head. He couldn’t just assume what I wanted to say. "Snow... Thorned Crescent and Shadow Clave are up to no good. I can feel it and I know so. Danger is coming."

His hold on my hand tightened. "Zara love, we’ll always have danger around. But would that stop us from living our lives and covering in fear?"

I shook my head. "No, we can’t."

"Yeah. Exactly love, we cannot allow someone else take turns determining what our lives would be like. I owe that to you and ever since I first promised you that, Thorned Crescent Bastards have been in our lives like a thorn in our flesh."

"Okay. Okay. You have a point."

"A big one, darling. Now, am I Snow Zephyr or what? Can’t I take care of my own?"

I smiled, closing the magazine and setting it aside. "You sure as hell can, baby. Alright. Let’s do it."

Snow’s grin widened, and he leaned in, brushing a soft kiss against my lips.
