Chapter 448: The Secret Footage

Alaric Storm looked like a page ripped straight out of an old-world mafia movie, except he was far more cuter than should be.

He wore a jet-black trench coat that hung open just enough to reveal the tailored, double-breasted suit inside. His crisp black shirt was buttoned up tight, save for the top, where his pale, flawless throat teased the eye.

A black leather gun holster lay snug around his shoulder, while he held a toy gun for effect, and on his head sat a black beret-style flat cap, tilted just right to cast the faintest shadow over one eye.

To top it all, he had a cinger in his mouth to complete the aesthetic, blowing a puff of smoke like he’d been doing this his whole life.

"I wore a superman’s outfit." Asher argued.

Griffin scowled at him. "Try wearing mine."

Alaric removed the cigar with a slow grin. "Not my fault I cleaned up fine as a villain."

"Oh, go to hell," Roman muttered, flopping onto the couch like a scandalized Victorian woman.

"Guys, come on," Violet pleaded. "This is all for fun. Remember, I did wear the clothes each of you chose for me?" She reminded them.
