Selena glared at him, her anger boiling over, but she couldn't find the words to respond.

Lucas then cleared the small table and gently lowered the bed.

"You..."

He started to say something.

But Aveline simply closed her eyes, clearly not interested in talking to him.

Lucas pressed his lips together, his expression darkening, a heavy tension hanging in the air around him.

Selena huffed, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
