Lukas's handsome face turned slightly grim, and his voice sounded stiff. "I was just asking casually. No need to overthink it."

Lukas almost felt like he was going to cough up blood. He had never felt so frustrated before. Why did it feel like he was desperately trying to have a conversation with Reese?

Reese furrowed her brow. "Another drinking session?"
