Twisted Ambitions
Before leaving, she didn't forget to warn me, "Stay out of sight, and don't ruin this for me."
Estel and I were twins, and she was worried my presence might distract Julian's attention. But her concern was unnecessary. I was more than happy to keep my distance from her.
Otherwise, I feared that when trouble struck her, I'd end up caught in the crossfire.
Moments later, Estel chuckled softly and added, "Then again, with that face of yours, it wouldn't really matter if you showed up."
Her laugh carried a deeper meaning, and I understood it all too well.
