“What?”
River started to blush.
Blush
? She’d never seen him do that before.
“This is, er, the first time I’ve seen your hair wet.” He shrugged, trying to downplay the comment.
Legacy fought a smile. “You’re going to use the wet hair in some fantasy now, aren’t you?” she teased. She figured it was better to tease him about it than feel uncomfortable.
He laughed. “Maybe.”
“
Maybe
?” She chuckled.
“Definitely.”
We both laughed, and then River stood up.
“Where are you going?”
“Home. Adin’s car is outside, so I figured he’s around here somewhere. No need to overstay my welcome.”
“You know you’re welcome here anytime, River.”
“I know, and thanks for calling me this morning instead of running over to my house. My mom’s back.”
“
Great
.”
“Not really. She was home last night and saw the fight. Legacy, she wants me to find out how you were able to shock me.”
“Hmmm…” She shrugged.
There was only one explanation for that—she was going to be more powerful than he realized. The explanation, however, was one she couldn’t share, but she knew River was smart enough to uncover the truth by himself. He was the one who enlightened her most about where she came from through his own due diligence.
All he needed was a little time, and this goddess secret would be a secret to him no longer. She could not allow that. She needed to redouble her efforts to ensure he never learned of her true abilities.
Her life depended on it.
The End
Author’s Note
Thanks for reading this book! If you enjoyed it, I would be very grateful for a review on Amazon. As an independent author without the backing of a large publishing house, attracting new readers is difficult and marketing is expensive. Customer reviews are extremely important on Amazon to help better position a book within search results and to help other readers select their next book.
I will have a contest starting in April where leaving a review on any book in this series will get you lots of points… it’s the least I can do to show my appreciation for you taking the time to help spread the word about me.
Thanks again for reading this book, and I hope you enjoy reading about Legacy’s journey as much as I did writing about it.
