Stepping out of the shower stall, Seraphina went to stand in front of the wash basin and stared at her reflection in the mirror while toweling her body dry. Slowly, a smirk curled upon her lips as she thought about the sudden opportunity that she had created for herself.
She really had not planned on asking Elijah to marry her. It was only because of the dream that she saw and her own conflicting thoughts regarding Elijah that she ended up asking him if he would marry her.
Seeing how serious his face had turned and how panicked he looked, she had tried lighten the mood by lying to him that this was her way to distract herself. But who knew that her lie would work this way. She had an idea that Elijah had deep and very genuine feelings for her but she did not know the truth depth of his feelings.
