Phoenix Maplewood the seventh horcrux

What a dream - to have such a hunk so in love with you! Alya was, at once, jealous of her cousin. But she supposed she could not begrudge them their love. "I hope I can find something like that, one day," she said with a soft sigh. And then, with a look halfway between mischief and embarrassment, she admitted, "My sisters and I tend to scare most boys away."

She recalled both Bruges and Vaati's initial wariness of her, as well as all the men in between that had not been around for long. "I'm sure you'll be able to accompany us, when we go." How was she supposed to turn him down? It would be good for Andalusia to be able to see him again, anyway.
