Chapter 25

My lips part and I can’t help but stare at Adam in awe. I’ve been fighting my feelings for him since the beginning, but a gesture this minor somehow manages to melt my barriers.

I noticed the looks of envy in the eyes of the girls who were praising me just a few minutes

ago. They all want Adam to themselves; him showing any affection towards me would stir the jealousy within them. Yet, they still try to fake their friendliness towards me.

My parents chose that exact moment to butt in. “Amiera,” my father says, glaring at Adam.

“Let’s go home.”

Adam folds his arms and looks the least bit bothered by my father’s nasty glare.

Tavoid eye contact with him as I nod my head and follow my father out of the crowds and towards our car, where my brother and sister are waiting for me.

Belle runs to me and gives me a long hug. “Congratulations, little sis, you’ve made us all

incredibly proud!”

Noah shuffles my hair, “I always knew that you were special. I’m glad that everyone else is

finally able to witness this.”

“You’ve made not only your family proud today but every single person from our kingdom.” My mother praises me. “I’m so proud of you sweetheart, come here,” she says as she pulls me in for a hug..

“We will host a grand event in a few days to celebrate your achievement. You’ve done

what no one in any of the kingdoms has ever been able to do. You’ve been revealed as our long-awaited flaming whisperer. You’re a blessing to us all, my child.” My father praises.

It’s weird to hear my parents praise me this much; I’m so used to them correcting my

mistakes.

When we enter the car, however, I’m hit with a very frustrating question.

“I don’t think that you’ll do anything to upset us,” my mother says. “But I still have to ask. Is there anything going on between you and that dark whisperer?”
