A small smile tugged at my lips, and warmth unfurled in my chest at his words. Taking a deep breath, I decided to venture further into the mysteries surrounding us. “Why did you agree to marry a girl you’ve never seen or met?” I asked, my words slow and careful like someone tiptoeing across thin ice.
