Chapter 213 The New Client

The memory of Kaia in that playful bunny outfit still lingered in Lucien’s mind, sparking all sorts of wild ideas that kept him distracted day and night.

When Alyssa noticed Kaia’s flushed cheeks as she selected a

crisp white blouse and sleek black mini–skirt, everything fell into place.

Kaia didn’t even bother trying them on. She just grabbed the smallest size and headed straight for the checkout.

Alyssa let out a mischievous giggle. “Oh, Kaia, one outfit? That’s not gonna survive the night…”

“Shush!” Kaia hissed, clapping a hand over Alyssa’s mouth, her face burning.

Seeing Kaia’s cheeks practically glowing, Alyssa relented, dropping the teasing with a grin.

They wandered through a few more stores, but Alyssa still hadn’t found a wedding dress that stole her heart.

Kaia gave her a reassuring pat. “No rush. You’ve got time before

the big day. Why not go custom at a studio?”

Off–the–rack dresses were rarely perfect. Alyssa nodded, conceding. “Yeah, you’re right.”
