Second Chance Mate

**************CHAPTER 122

~Zara's POV~

Snow's voice rang out, cutting through the tension like a blade. "Zade."

The man turned, his sharp blue eyes lighting up as a slow smile curved his lips. "Snow," he drawled smoothly, the faintest hint of mischief in his tone. "Surprise."

Snow's expression softened into an uncharacteristic grin, and before I could even process the exchange, he moved forward, pulling Zade into a firm, brotherly hug.

Andrew chuckled at their interaction, his usual composed demeanour relaxing slightly. "I take it the reunion's going well?"

Snow released Zade, stepping back but keeping his hand on the man's shoulder. "It's been too long," he said. "And you show up here, of all places?"

Zade shrugged, the faintest smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth. "You know me. I like to keep things interesting."
