My heart was racing but not in a good way. I didn’t think I’d ever have to talk to him again. “Yeah, I got your number from your mom.” I didn’t respond because it didn’t make sense to me. My mom didn’t know how aggressive or demanding Emilio was but she knew there was something between us. Why would she give my number to him when I’m with my mate? “Okay well, she didn’t exactly give it to me. She wrote it down to give to Vey’s mate and I caught a glance at it,” he explained. My mind was yelling at me to hang up. “Aria?” Grayson called for me after opening the door to the balcony. “I’ll be a second,” I said, trying not to sound panicked. “I couldn’t sleep.” “Is that your mate? The king?” Emilio asked. “Okay my love.” Grayson closed the door. “Why are you calling me??” I whispered.
