The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 91

"Earlier today, you didn't answer my question about what happened."

I got into bed. "I said I didn't want to talk about it."

"I do, if you won't then I'll spend the night at my Moms." She threatened. "She'll talk to me." I had no choice.

-

I took a deep breath and got ready to explain. "Fine, I went to go see a friend about a job, but you know that don't you because you used one of the gemstones to spy on me then you sent Cade."

Aqua glared at me. "You're avoiding the question. Yes I used one of the gems, but I didn't send Cade. I told him who you were with and he felt the need to confront you. I told him he didn't have to go and that I trusted you, but he went anyways."

"Viv put her hand on my shoulder and gave me quick peck on the cheek. That's all," I explained.

'The conversation didn't sound like that was all,' she thought.

"You can hear what you see with your third eye?" I didn't realize that she could hear our whole conversation, that put me in an awkward position.

She sat down on the bed. "Only with the gem, you're constantly reading my mind which I'm fine with, but I can't read yours if we're not together." She sighed. "This is stupid, this isn't worth fighting over. Why do you have a problem with me reading your thoughts and seeing you when we're not together? Help me understand, I'm not mad about Viv. I trust you." I didn't understand.

"Why do you trust me?"

She scrunched her eyebrows. "Why wouldn't I? Because you cheated on Sadia? That was obviously different. You wouldn't cheat on someone you love."

"What did you hear?"

She turned her back to me. 'I can't say it out loud, but I heard her offer. I know you turned her down.'

"If I don't tell you Cade probably will. I wouldn't say Viv is my ex because we never put a label on it, but we used to like each other on and off until I got engaged to Sadia. We didn't see each other often but when we did we'd basically go on a date then... you know. She was my first."

She felt uncomfortable but she didn't show it. I always knew Aqua was a bit emotional, but I didn't realize how emotional she was because she doesn't show her emotion half the time. "I guess she just wanted it to continue..."

"Are you okay with me working with her?"

Aqua nodded. "I'm fine with it." For the first time she blocked me from feeling her emotion and reading her mind. I didn't realize how isolating it felt.

The next morning, we met Cade at the coven house, but we couldn't go it. We were forced to be alone since she had to run in. "Did you tell her?"

"I did," I answered.

"She's okay with you working with your ex?"
