The Luna Queen's Rebirth (Ellie and Dominic) novel Chapter 318

Chapter 318

“There’s a part of me that wants to give this marriage a chance,” I said quietly. “Even if it feels dangerous. Even if I’m terrified of what might happen. I think… I think I owe it to both of us to at least try.”

Something shifted in Dominic’s expression. The wariness that had been there since I walked in melted away, replaced by something softer. Relier, maybe. Or hope.

“Okay,” he said. “I’ll make it special. I promise.

“You’d better,” I said. “Because if you screw this up, that’s it. No more chances.”

He smiled wryly. “Understood.”

I turned to leave, but he caught my hand.

“Ellie,” he said. “Thank you.”

I looked down at our joined hands, then back up at him. “Don’t thank me yet. You still have to prove yourself.”

“I will,” he said. “I’ll prove my loyalty to you. I swear it.’

I pulled my hand away and walked out of the room before I could change my mind.

Vivian’s POV

I was halfway down the stairs when I heard them talking in the sitting room.

I froze, one hand on the banister, and listened.

Ellie’s voice came through the door, muffled but clear enough to make out the words: “Make it magical. Plan something special.”

My stomach dropped.

I crept closer, pressing myself against the wall beside the door. Through the crack, I couldn’t see her face with her back turned to me, but I could see Dominic’s. He was smiling like she had just handed him the

moon.

“I’ll make it special,” he said. “I promise.”

I bit down on my tongue.
