Cora POV
Xavier, I rolled that name over in my head. I liked it more than Gunner. I wonder what new name Father will give him? The name on Dad's cut below his title 'Prez' was Coins; I guess that related to him being rich. I noticed not all of Dad's men's road names were bike- or road-related; just like Dad being Coins, one guy was called Smartass, another Lost-it. Some were funny, and I liked that they didn't fit the norm; I have always liked things that were different.
What I hadn't expected was for Xavier to drop to one knee, holding out the most gorgeous ring I have ever seen; it wasn't huge and extravagant, it was four coloured stones, in a silver ring, and it had a look like a vine, the stones being the buds on the vine; it was intricate and feminine. I loved it.
Xavier was starin
