Chapter 0560 "I'l keep an eye on her," Julian said, holding his brother's gaze.

"Thanks," Nicholas said. He placed his hand over mine on his arm, then, gently, pulled my hand away from him." I'll be back as soon as I'm able." | could see the determination burning in his eyes. | didn't want him to go but | knew he wanted to see this through for himself. He didn't trust anyone else, except maybe Julian, but Julian hadn't seen what Nicholas had seen.

Nicholas needed to tell the ambassador all of it.

I lowered my hand down to my lap.

Nicholas stood up slowly, like he had to physically force himself to leave me. He held my gaze for as long as he could, before turning and following Nathan toward the house.

Bridget rushed after him. "Nicholas! Did you see my win?" Nicholas didn't reply and all three disappeared into the mansion.

"I'm glad you're okay," Jessica said. She sighed. "I need a drink.” She turned toward the mansion too and started walking toward the deck.

*Prince Ronan?" Julian asked. Glancing sideways at Elva, he didn't dare say more.

"Pulled me down," | said, and refused to elaborate for the ‘same reason. Instead, | looked at Veronica. "Thank you. If it wasn't for you, | don't think Nicholas would have made it

in time."

A smile pulled at the corners of Veronica's mouth. "I did what | set out to do. Keep you alive was the goal." "Mission accomplished," Julian said. He gave Veronica an appreciate smile, coupled with a soft, warm look. *She teleported Ronan away from me," | said.

Julian's pride grew brighter. "Nicely done. A high leap from fruit to moving people." Veronica lowered her head, appearing somewhat bashful, though she didn't blush. "No choice in the moment. I'm just glad it worked." "Me too," Julian said.

"Me three," | agreed.

"Well, you should have seen Nicholas," Julian said, returning his attention to me. "The minute your head dipped below water, his shirt came off and he was running forward at a full-clip. I'm surprised he didn't rage shift, honestly,"

"He probably swims better as a human," Veronica said.

"He would have done anything to get to Piper quicker. And I'm glad he did. A few seconds later..." She didn't finish that thought because Elva began to cry. "Oh. Elva, I'm sorry." "Mommy..." Elva sniffed.

Veronica lowered Elva down to the ground and she rushed into my arms, burrowing herself against me.

Her tears flood. Her loud sobs made her words choppy and difficult to understand. "You... almost... drown...

died." I'held her to me and gently patted her back. "I'm okay, honey. I'm okay now." I rocked her in my arms, soothing her with whispered words. How scary it must have been for such a small girl to almost lose her mother.

Eventually, she cried herself to sleep.

Julian and Veronica stayed nearby the entire time. With Elva asleep, their whispered words grew louder to include me.

"But if your family planned this "Veronica started.

*That asshole prince was already angry on his own," Julian said.

"But would he have been able to find this island without help? And how would he have guessed the perfect time to snatch Piper?" Veronica shook her head. "It could be coincidence.” "Listen," Julian said, and | could see the spark of anger ignite within him. It was not directed at Veronica, but at ‘someone else, far away. "If my parents had anything to do with it, I'm going to find out."
