Shifting Pieces?

Alden looked at Sorin quietly.

His mind was preoccupied with many thoughts.

Sorin Valcrest

Who was he?

He hadn't heard anything about him in the book. So he was probably an extra, but Alden was having a bad feeling about him.

He couldn't tell why, but it felt as if Sorin was dangerous.

He didn't really care about change as he was going to actively mess up the novel's plot, but…this change didn't settle well with him.

And then there was Nyx.

Alden had picked up on the minute reaction Sorin showed to her as if he knew who she was.

Who is she?

Finally, the change in Lucien.

Although it was good that he was changing, as his personality from the novel was very rigid.

But the reason for that change was unknown.

Alden didn't like unknown elements.

He looked at Lucien, who had just taken a seat.

His eyes were too deep with affection as he looked at Seles.
