Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus)

Chapter 70

Magnus finally looked up, his gaze cold and impatient. He stared at her for a second, then promptly looked away.

That single glance took Lana's breath away.

All she could do was retreat awkwardly into her apartment.

She stewed in her embarrassment all night, still fuming the next morning. But as soon as she stepped out the door, she was shocked to see another man leaving Isadora's apartment.
