Her sister was only eighteen, a college freshman. Was she supposed to spend her beautiful, vibrant youth living in constant fear at Shanley's side?
Ebony Fox knew all too well what it was like to be hunted, and she would never let her little sister suffer the same fate.
"I do," Juniper nodded.
"And you still…" Ebony Fox's brow furrowed in confusion. "Did Shanley force you into this?"
"It was my choice," Juniper said, shaking her head. A faint smile touched her lips as she looked directly into her sister's eyes. "The guys didn't approve at first either. But… I like Shanley."
"Juniper, you're only eighteen," Ebony Fox said softly, her eyes filled with concern. "Are you sure it's really love? What do you even like about him?"
"I don't know," Juniper admitted after a moment's thought. She couldn't pinpoint a specific reason. A corner of her mouth lifted. "If I had to say, it's because he's good-looking."
"What?" Ebony Fox’s eyes widened in disbelief.
She was drawn to his face? On second thought, the man was undeniably handsome. Her sister was at that age, susceptible to… being seduced.
"How did the guys ever agree to let you be with him?" Ebony Fox asked, genuinely curious. It was obvious how much they doted on Juniper.
"Money," Juniper said calmly, wiping her hands on a napkin before peeling a large purple grape and offering it to her sister. "To prove his sincerity, Shanley transferred all of his personal assets to my name."
"All of his assets?" Ebony Fox knew Shanley was the richest man in Borealia, backed by the century-old powerhouse of the Schwartz Group.
