Aurora POV
The first thought in my mind when I see Thorne: I’m safe now.
The second thought in my mind when I see him: I’m not three meters away from Jackson.
Thorne’s Beta stands at his side, watching the scene with wide eyes. He shoots me a look of concern, but it’s the calm and collected expression on Thorne’s face I’m captivated by. There’s no trace of anger on his face, at least not that I can see.
Is he about to explode? It could be like the calm before the storm… but that wouldn’t make sense. He doesn’t care about me that much.
“Thorne, thank the goddess that you’re here,” Jackson says with faux relief. All eyes, including Thorne’s move to the man speaking, “She doesn’t deserve to work here. I came to get some coffee, and she threw herself at me.”
“What? I didn’t—”
