When My Ex's Worst Enemy Became My Sanctuary novel Chapter 292

Dorothea glanced over, curiosity plain in her eyes. “Where’d you learn how to do this?”

Latham kept his focus on her foot, his gaze steady. “I picked it up a while back. Thought maybe, if you ever got pregnant and your legs cramped up, I could help you.”

She blinked. That was the last answer she expected.

Soon enough, the spot he was massaging warmed up, her blood flowing again, the numbness fading away.

Dorothea turned toward the window. Outside, everything was quiet and black, the world wrapped in stillness.

Inside the car, warm orange light traced the sharp lines of his face, making him look even more striking.

She was lost in thought when the driver’s voice broke through. “We’re here.”

Dorothea quickly pulled her foot back and tugged her sock up.

“We made it. Let’s go.”

Latham double-checked her coat and scarf, making sure she was all bundled up before opening the door.

Cold air rushed in, stinging their faces and making them squint.

Under the moon, the snow-covered mountains shimmered with blue and white light. Above them, the sky was so clear and full of stars it almost made her breath catch.

“Look over there.” Latham pointed into the distance, and Dorothea followed his gaze.

The Milky Way stretched across the sky, and a faint green shimmer slowly brightened, spreading wider and wider.

Colors spilled across the sky, painting everything with light.

Dorothea held her breath. She’d watched videos, seen pictures, but nothing came close to standing here, right in the middle of it all.

The glow drifted right above their heads, swirling like a river.

“Happy New Year, babe,” Latham whispered against her ear.

She looked up at him, the aurora reflecting in his eyes.

“Happy New Year, love.”
