‘They’re going to eat my cake. I will kill them.’ I’d never loved my sister more than I did at that moment.
I was so happy I did a turning kick in the middle of the capsule and almost smacked Hunter in the head.
Amused, he pulled me back into his arms. ‘Happy birthday, Ninja.’
‘Thank you.’ I slid my arms round him, my present. My gift. ‘This was the best birthday.’
‘It isn’t over yet. This is just the beginning.’
As he brought his mouth down on mine, I closed my eyes, thinking that if this was the beginning, then the future was looking even better than my birthday cake.
