Scarlett POV
“How much romantic feeling do you think I have to spread around?”
Jaxen dismissed the idea.
Looking back at himself, he seemed to believe that the man who initially fell in love was a clueless innocent who didn't know how to behave.
He couldn't imagine falling into the same love repeatedly.
“Isn't that a shame? Don't you want someone to love you just as intensely?”
“I do.”
He smiled and came up behind me, wrapping his arms around me and guiding my hands as he taught me how to shape the pastry.
“But one intense love is enough for me.”
The moment I heard him say he planned to pour all his emotions into me, my initial reaction was to think he was foolish.
Then, I reminded myself that he might just be saying whatever came to mind.
Jaxen wasn't even thirty yet.
