Kaelos' POV
*****
Seeing her laugh and spin happily while we shopped in the mall, especially after everything we discovered this morning... brought a soothing warmth in my chest.
I have to admit... I hated the idea of getting into a pink hoodie in broad daylight in a popular store where CCTV cameras were probably watching our every move.
But as long as it helped her get her mind away from the fact that she was connected to a source of chaotic magic underneath the continent... Then all is good.
As long as she smiled... All good!
As long as I felt her happiness swarm into me through our mate bond... All fucking good!
"Hekate, have mercy, this is actually cute!" Odessa giggled, placing her right hand on her stomach as she drew out her phone and took pictures of me.
Her maid, Caroline, held the shopping bags silently, a small smirk on her face as she watched Odessa.
I clicked my tongue but then smiled for the camera.
