It’s not until he hits send that he realizes it’s half-past four. The last thing he wants to do is wake Bridget up, or worse, piss her off just in case she’s burning the midnight oil and is up writing. To his surprise, his phone buzzes.
Bridget
You are so full of shit, but I appreciate your lies.
Silas
Ouch! Here I am trying to compliment your skills, and you wound me.
Bridget
Lol. I do appreciate the compliment, however far-fetched it is. Okay, quiz time. Are you ready?
Silas
And waiting.
Bridget
What flower did Tyberious give to Queen Miranda before the battle of the Radyn?
Silas
You wound me again, baby. The answer is marigolds, now ask me something hard.
Bridget
Okay, who is Queen Isolde?
Bridget, why are you trying to play me?
Silas grins as he types his answer. It’s a trick question; Queen Isolde isn’t in Bridget’s books. She’s the main antagonist in Bridget’s friend Aimee’s book series,The Prince’s Journey.And she doesn’t think he knows that.
Silas
Why are you asking me about Aimee’s books?
Bridget
Don’t tell me you read those since you met me.
Silas
No, but I Googled her after I found a picture of you two on your IG.
Bridget
Which picture?
Silas
The one from that convention y’all went to a few months ago.
Bridget
Yeah, that was an interesting day.
Silas
