Looking at this face that I once both loved and hated, my emotions churned, and for a moment, I didn’t know how to react.

Our breath fogged up in the cold air, blurring our faces.

Caspian took a step forward, his gaze both affectionate and cautious. “Scarlett, it’s really you. Thank God… you’re alive!”

The years had taken their toll on him, he had changed dramatically.

He looked gaunt and haggard, with a scruffy beard. His suit hung loosely on his shoulders, and he reeked of stale smoke and alcohol, a very unpleasant smell.

My tone was cold. “Sir, you have the wrong person.”

I couldn’t be mistaken. You are my Scarlett!” Caspian, seemingly not expecting my rejection, his eyes reddened.

I acted first, grabbing Rhys’s tie, standing on my toes, and kissing him straight on the lips.

thys was nearly a head taller than me. The moment I leaned in, his body stiffened, then he bent down slightly, wrapped his arm around my waist, and leepened the kiss.

His lips were soft and warm, and they tasted of sweet lavender honey cake.

When the kiss ended, my cheeks felt like they were on fire, impossibly red.

ty heels touched the ground again. I looked at Caspian and continued, “And besides, I already have a boyfriend.”
