EVIE:
Her lips unconsciously lifted as she felt the familiar warmth of the King's body surround her. She was getting used to this. Her eyes closed, and she dwelled on the security that his embrace was bringing.
Despite that, Evie's subconscious self began to seep through her mind as she said to her, "You cannot trust anyone."
With that, reality sinks in through her. It was not the first time that someone showed his affection for her. Her eyes opened, making her see that there were other beings in that hut aside from them.
As usual, she couldn't comprehend what the woman was thinking, as she was covered perfectly. However, it seemed like the Duke was in a different mood as his critical eyes gazed at them with his arms over his chest. His head was slightly tilted to the side.
Seeing that Evie's attention was on him, his face turned back to that cheery vibe.
