Zoey breathed a sigh of relief. Knowing it wasn't entirely his doing made it somewhat more palatable.

"But your call last night, you clearly said it was your arrangement..."

"I had sinfluence over their dinner plans, yes, but the woman making moves was beyond my expectations. Don't you trust

me?"

Looking into his eyes, Zoey felt a pang in her heart.

"It's not that | don't trust you."

Fitch embraced her, hiding the turmoil in his eyes from her view. He had been careless, a mistake he vowed not to repeat.

"I've arranged for your parents to take a trip to Hilltop and made sure they were looked after. | wanted to ensure their safety and

see if they were enjoying themselves. When | met you in Zion City, you were too dependent on your family. If they were around,

you wouldn't have givena chance, wouldn't have followedto Greenfield. Honey, I'm sorry, | did employ stactics. You

can be mad, yell at me, just don't ignore me."

He was so humble, a side of him that would astonish anyone familiar with his usually ruthless demeanor.

After everything he said, what could Zoey possibly hold against him? He admitted to his manipulations, all to bring her to

Greenfield. In the end, it was all because he cared for her.

"Is there anything else you're hiding from me?" she asked, turning to face him. "If there is, you need to tellnow. Otherwise, I'll

be really upset when | find out."

A flicker of something passed quickly through Fitch's eyes, but he replied, "That's all."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Zoey relaxed, finding herself able to accept the things he had done so far. Their ttogether had stirred feelings in her as well,

but she had her limits.

"We shouldn't involve others unnecessarily. If anything comes up, we should discuss it together. We're in this together now; nothing

should be off-limits. Fitch, | don't like being lied to."

Fitch felt a squeeze around his heart, his expression darkening. If he could, he would keep her in this mansion forever, away from

everyone else. But then, Maja had called several times, and so had lan, suggesting he take Zoey out for a meal, for a formal

introduction.

That night, their intensity reached new heights, with Zoey eventually pleading for a break.

"Can we rest now, honey?" she asked, exhausted.

After showering and returning to bed, he held her tightly.

"Don't ever doubtbecause of someone else."

Too tired to argue, Zoey mumbled her agreement.

"And don't you dare leave on your own."

She sensed he was hiding something, something significant.

"l won't."

"What if you do?"

"I really won't. Let's sleep."

"Honey, think about Nolan. He's really taken to you."

Still, Fitch felt uneasy.
