#Chapter 47: The New Boyfriend

Ella POV "I had no idea you were going to be so forward, Alexander," I said. Alexander smirked. "Did you think I was going to play games?" he asked with obvious amusement. "I'm afraid that's against my nature." "I have a feeling there's much I have to learn about your nature if we're going to move forward with this relationship," I replied. "I look forward to teaching you," Alexander said smoothly. I had come to the Capitol to visit Elizabeth, and luckily, I was able to slip away from my father’s guard long enough to meet up with Alexander in the shopping center. We were in the food court, surrounded by plenty of people. I had no doubt that someone would snap a photo of us together, so we were careful not to stand too close. It was necessary for us to meet. After all, we had to decide what our next steps were going to be. Alexander had publicly announced his interest in me, and I had to respond, but I wasn’t sure what the right way to do that was.
