“With his eyes,” Ethan said.
He cupped her face and leaned down to kiss her.
His voice was soft. “Austin is an adult. He won’t overthink it, okay?”
Dawn pped his hand away. “Is that the point? It’s rude for elders to see this kind of thing!”
Ethan sighed, thenughed. “What should we do? Want to leave some marks on me and let Austin see those instead?”
<i>What </i><i>kind </i><i>of </i><i>stupid </i><i>idea </i><i>is </i><i>that</i><i>? </i>
Dawn puffed out her cheeks. “I don’t care. You have to fix this!”
She crossed her arms, clearly not letting him off the hook.

Ethan lowered his gaze. Warmth flickered in his deep eyes. After a moment, he walked to the vanity and picked up the bottles, checking at them one by one.
“What are you doing?” Dawn asked.
“Which one is foundation?”
She nced at his face. “You’re going to cover it with makeup?”
<i>Honestly</i><i>, </i><i>that </i><i>might </i><i>actually </i><i>work</i>.
<b>“</b>That one<i>.</i>”
Dawn handed him the foundation and grabbed a sponge. “Here you go. Mess this up and you’re banned from my room for a whole
month.”
A whole month?
Ethan’s eyes darkened slightly. He calmly squeezed out some foundation.
He wasn’t skilled, but with Dawn guiding him, it turned out pretty well. The marks were mostly hidden.
They were halfway done when Raven’s voice suddenly came from downstairs.
Dawn ran to the stair rail and looked down. “Anna? Why are you here?”
Anna seemed to rx when she saw Dawn. “Dawn…”
Dawn forgot about everything and hurriedly went downstairs.
Anna looked terrible. Her eyes were bloodshot, like she hadn’t slept for days.
“What happened?” Dawn asked.
“I…” Anna pressed her lips together.

She hesitated for a long time before finally saying, “Dawn, can I stay here for a few days?”

Anna never asked for her help. If it were any other time, she would have moved in without a second thought. Seeing <i>her </i>so careful made Dawn uneasy.
Dawn held her hand. “Tell me the truth. Did something happen?”
Anna knew she couldn’t hide it.
“It’s Leon.”
She sighed. Her eyes filled with tears. “I think he’s lost it. I don’t know what to do. Please help me.”
For years, Anna had been deeply involved with Leon. It led to nowhere; it simply wore her down.
She wanted to leave. He wouldn’t let her.
He even tried to lock her at home.
“This isn’t the life I want,” Anna said quietly. “I want to leave him.”
‘Don’t worry. I’ll help you,” Dawn said, holding her cold hands. Her heart ached. “Leon is such a jerk.”
She didn’t know him well, but she knew enough. He was controlling and proud and hated being told no.
That kind of attitude might work at work, but never on Anna.
Dawn asked Raven to make some food so Anna could eat properly.
‘We’ve got a bodyguard heretely,” Dawn said gently. “He won’t find you. Stay as long as you want. Leave when you’re ready. Or don’t leave at all. I can take care of you.”
Anna looked at her, speechless.
How lucky was she to have a friend <i>like </i>Dawn?
With another person in the house, the happiest person was Dulce. At first she was curious, but soon she got close to Anna and kept calling her name, over and over. Anna was delighted.
They took Dulce outside to y ball. Before long, Dawn and Anna were both out of breath. Dulce, somehow, was still full of energy.
Ethan yed with her while Dawn and Anna sat down to rest.
“Having a daughter is really nice,” Anna said, watching them.
She smiled without realizing it. “Look at Dulce. She’s so cute.”
Her mood finally improved, and Dawn quietly rxed.
“Yeah,” Dawn said.
Then she turned and asked seriously, “How about you be her godmother?”
“Me?”

“You.”
“But…” Anna licked her lips anxiously. “Can you decide that casually? Are you sure about this?”
“You’re my best friend. If I say yes, it’s a yes.”
Dawn took a sip of water. “It’s settled.”
“Just like that?” Annaughed, rubbing her hands. “Well, if Dulce is my goddaughter, there should be a special ritual, right? I didn’t bring any gifts. I’d feel bad bing her godmother without one.”
Her eyes lit up. “Let’s go shopping tomorrow! I’m going to buy my goddaughter the best gift in the world!”
Dawn smiled. “Deal.”
The weather had turned cool, but not freezing.
When the wind brushed past, it felt like a thin veil against the skin. Dawn turned to look at the woman beside her. Anna looked fragile, like she might scatter with the breeze. The sight made Dawn’s chest tighten.
