Chapter 207 – A Perfect Night

• “I don’t know yet,” Juniper murmurs, her eyes going distant as she stares off into space. “But…something big. I want to do all of it. I want…I want to do everything, feel everything. See…the whole world.”
• Cora lets her hand drift away from Juniper and both she and my mom look at my little sister with a great deal of soft love in their eyes. But they let Junie have her space, turning away with each other to open another bottle of wine.
• When they’re gone, I step closer to Junie, slipping an arm around her waist and pouring more of my wine in her cup. “Don’t write off mates so fast, June,” I murmur. She turns to me with a frown, combative. But as usual, it just makes me grin. “You know, the goddess wouldn’t give you a mate that wasn’t suited to your hopes and your dreams, your fate. If you want a big life, your mate will too.”
