Alexander Kingsley had a feeling of impending doom.
Eva Nightingale asked him to lend her a jacket, and it was as if he could already imagine how he would meet his end, how the Crown Prince would come for him!
Lucas Knight's expression darkened as well. He spread his arms, indicating for her to sit in his lap.
His cold, thin lips moved, "Woman, come obediently into my arms."
His voice was pleasant, very melodious.
Yet it carried a hint of bloodthirsty coldness.
Eva sat back in his embrace, holding onto Lucas Knight's neck, as if explaining, "Honey, I have a friend who's at the Nightfall Palace, and she doesn't have a jacket. I took the Admiral's coat for her, not for myself."
Carla Carr's relationship with Alexander Kingsley was close enough for borrowing a jacket...
Mostly, Eva wanted to create more opportunities for Carla and Alexander to meet.
More contact could only be a good thing.
Since she borrowed his jacket, it only made sense that Carla would return it herself,
