Chapter 87

• Strangely, though, she had missed him. She had Diana and Ben with her, but it didn't change the fact that she still noticed his absence whenever he was out. But right now, Anna didn’t intend telling Cedric that!
• “So I have,” he murmured ruefully, his arm bending slightly behind her as his fingers began to play with the loose tendrils of hair at her nape. “Did you think of me while I was away?” he added gruffly.
