Distracted

As Lydia pulled back the chair and sat opposite to Lucas, she noticed the man was in daze. His fork played around with the food on the plate with no intention of consuming it.

Her gaze then shifted towards Violet. She has her head lowered, wholeheartedly concentrating on the food. The silence between both of them was suspicious when they were responsible for being the loudest.

"What got you so disturbed? Did you get scolded by the Alpha so early in the morning?" asked Lydia.

Lucas's eyes fell towards Lydia. His lips parted. After a second of hesitation, he expressed the reason behind his shocked state: "Alpha and Princess are having an affair."

Violet choked on her food upon hearing that and immediately clarified in a panic.

"It's nothing like that. What do you mean an affair? Alpha was just being playful. That's all. Lucas misunderstood."

Lucas scoffed at Violet as if he was being played as a fool.
