Chapter 53 Seren

• Alejandro led me from the training field, my hand held firmly in his. I found myself smiling as I looked across to his handsome face. He had turned my birthday around for me in the end. It had sure not gone the way that I had hoped earlier in the day, that was for certain, but being treated so sweetly all evening has been quite unusual, I have to admit, and I think I might have enjoyed it.
• Alejandro caught me looking at him, and he winked, bringing a hint of colour rushing to my cheeks. “You liking what you see there, angel?” He teased, and I rolled my eyes.
• “Whatever.” I stuck my tongue out at him, and he chuckled, using my hand to pull me a little closer.
