"Ms. Madison," Xavier's breath sank as he spoke softly, just enough for her to hear, "you look beautiful
today."
Maggie's face burned with embarrassment. Panicking, she hastily withdrew herself from his arms.
Jasper struggled to contain the overwhelming emotions within him. He hugged Alyssa tightly and
