As Damon drove away, Nyla slipped her marriage certificate into her bag and flagged down a taxi. Her destination: the restaurant where she had arranged to meet Alexander.
When she arrived, she found herself 30 minutes early. Yet, Alexander was already there.
"You're here," he remarked, standing as she approached.
"Yes," she replied, seating herself across from him.

"What did you want to talk about?" Nyla drew a steady breath before speaking. "I thought about what you said after I got home. You're right—she's my mother. I can't cut her out of my life completely.

"So I need you to promise not to do anything to him. If you do, I'll never forgive you or her." Both knew precisely who "her" referred to.
"You have my word," Alexander assured her. "But if you return to Meristate, you and Damon will be worlds apart in life and status. Your mother will never accept him." JUMS Nyla's gaze turned icy.
