The natural glaze of the moonlight illuminates his features as I stared into the eyes of a flawless Greek God. His wise words taking me by surprise, and I began to fall even more inlove with him. If that was even humanely possible. Join the journey of Delilah Rose and Blake Cooper. Enjoy ❤ ⚠COPY RIGHTED ALL RIGHTS RESERVED➡ Queen_Nabz ⚠Complete
