Chương 232: I'm not ready yet

The moment Leora spoke the words, "Your perfect match is Lise," something inside me shifted. Relief flooded my veins, mixed with a sense of wonder so profound that I could barely breathe. My heart swelled, and I felt like I might burst with happiness.

Lise was my perfect match. Lise, who had fought for me, who had been by my side through every terrifying moment, who had looked at me with such intensity that I thought I might drown in her gaze. She was mine. 

I stole a glance at her, and she was already looking at me, her eyes wide with a mixture of surprise, joy, and something deeper something raw and vulnerable. I had never seen her like this, and it stirred something inside me.

The world felt like it had narrowed down to just the two of us. My pulse quickened, and my skin tingled with anticipation. I could hardly believe it.
