He looked down at her and asked, “Having fun?”
“Actually, yes I am,” she replied.
“Good,” he said. “How’s your conscience?”

“Things may appear to have not changed, but the truth has shifted our relationship. When we can understand why we stand where we do, it’s easier to move forward. Trust me. Be my friend, Cousin Grace, and I’ll try to be nice to Cam.”
“How will you amuse yourself?” Grace grinned.
Puck smiled back. “I’ll think of something.”
Grace threw her head back and laughed. “This is going to be fun.”
