"Of course, I would say Caspian is playing with fire," he bellowed, his voice booming with authority. Magnus's eyes widened at the mention of Sylvie's name. "Wait, your dad told you he wouldn't recognize me as your boyfriend because of Caspian?" He stuttered aloud, curiosity evident in her voice. Jenna cursed under her breath, showing no interest in Caspian. "I never planned to get into a relationship with him," she said firmly.
