"It's too much."

The room was for someone else but here we were sharing. Him gifting it too me. The food, the drinks, the trinkets were collected over the years for one lady.

"Knight."

"It's for you."

I paused and gave him the look.

"Please, take it. You've earned it. Just stay safe and think everything over. Here have a drink, love."He said pouring me a gla.s.s of wine.

"Thanks,"

"The pleasure was mine, love." He said smiling.

I tried hard to stop my heart from breaking. The magical moment was over. I was back to being Cinderella looking at my stepsisters going to the ball and my fairy G.o.dmother had used up her magic. There was no second chance for me.

"One more thing, I really don't need to know anything of the details but I really need to know how long there is a we?"

"Gene, come here."

He smiled and my heart broke, my chance of happily ever after was gone. His real mate was going to take him back. The potion had made me attached to him, I was mated for a while and it will have to be enough for me. Fate did give me a chance at my dreams.

"Sorry, I don't know. Nothing is final. I know I have to give you some information if anything was to happen. Your aunts were kind enough to a.s.sist me in my quest. If anything happens they would contact me."

I was shocked speechless.

I was not expecting him to be close to my aunts.

I was not ready to know everything but I need to know.

"A few years maybe, if all goes well my mate would be safe. I hope this would not be our last meeting but this room is yours to keep, love. Until we meet again take care." He said sliding a key over to me.

I leaned back and closed my eyes, then shook my head. For once I was out of words. He was very generous and it made me want to forget.

The last thing I wanted was to watch as Knight Walk away but I watch anyway. After all, he was all I ever wanted and even if what we had was borrowed I would always treasure it.
