#Chapter 32 - New shoes

“I can’t believe you,” Ada says to me. “After everything, you still betray our mate.”

“I would never do that. Ethan and I are friends.”

“Then I suggest you make that very clear to him.”

“Uh oh, what did I walk into?” Joy asked as she entered the villa. “You can cut the tension in here with a butter knife.”

“Nothing,” I say, adjusting my clothes. “Doctor Ethan was finishing up my appointment.”

“Looks like you two were doing more than what is needed to make sure that you’re alright,” Maggie said.

I glare at her, but it slowly fades. “You said it yourself, Mags. It’s not like I can pretend that he isn’t handsome and with everything that he told me today, I guess I just got swept up in the moment.”

Joy lays across my bed and probs her head up with her elbows. “Oh…what happened? Spill.”

“Apparently, Ethan knew me before his first visit. He said that he used to attend my performances from age twelve until five years ago, right before I left Blue Moon.”
