The footsteps suddenly sounded more urgent to Juniper. Kai was too busy wrapping the towel around himself to notice Juniper’s shocked expression.
“Kai,” the familiar voice spoke, sounding even more severe and harsh. Juniper turned on her toes to see Dayton fully dressed in uniform. His eyes burned holes into Juniper for a split second before turning to Kai. “There has been an attack.”
Kai didn’t speak right away. Juniper looked from Dayton’s expression to Kai’s, noting they were having a silent conversation.
“Juniper, get dressed.” He barked the order, which told her their bliss was over, and it was time to maintain status. Kai left the room, and Dayton gave one more hard cold stare at Juniper before he followed behind. It was as if he saw her as more disgusting than before.
She wasted no time getting dressed and grunted pissy comments to herself about having to go back to the castle and deal with Dayton.
