The storm from within (2)

I was in my study, going through the latest reports on Mona when I got a notice that Lazarus arrived.

I knew that he was eager to go on this date, but he came a few hours ahead of time. The guy is overdoing it. Well, at least he came to greet me first.

A low groan formed in my throat when I saw him with flowers and chocolates.

Is this how every father feels when suitors are buzzing around his daughter?

Lazarus, Fynn, Otto, Bert, those young men from the party in London. Did I miss any? Wherever we go, more and more men are sticking to Serina and I can't imagine how bad it would be if she didn't manage to control her pheromones.

"She is in the sunroom…", I grumbled and went back to the report.
