The days passed, and I forgot about Brightâs warning. He didnât show any open hatred through his gestures, but definitely preferred Jane as his princess, showering her with gifts and treats.
But it was his choice!

We were habitual of sharing the blissful moment of peace with a mug of coffe to unwind, so I offered him. But Bright stopped me seriously.
âNo, thanks. We need to talk, Laura!â
