Emmaline POV
I cannot believe I am competing for Daelan's attention.
Of all the absurd things to happen, this has to be at the top of the list.
I fold my arms, glaring at the handsome menace sitting across from me, making himself entirely too comfortable in my home.
Choi Jihun.
A man who, in the original timeline, was supposed to be Evan's rival and eventual best friend. They were supposed to bond through near-death experiences, grow stronger together, and push each other past their limits. Tell me why this walking plot armor is here—again.
He's been coming to the Morne estate every single day for the past week.
Why?
Shouldn't he be off doing main character things like saving the world, fighting dragons, or—I don't know—being in the actual storyline?
Instead, he's lounging here, smirking at me like he owns the place.
"Sister-in-law, don't look at me like that," he says, flashing that signature cocky grin.
I send an ice spike flying in his direction without hesitation.
