His voice wasn’t loud. In fact, it wasn’t enough for Adrian on the other end of the phone to hear.

Caught between the two of them, Lysander couldn’t help but feel a wave of annoyance. She had already encountered enough trouble recently and neither had the time nor the inclination to waste energy on such trivial matters.

Adrian’s laugh had a touch of melancholy. “I understand what you mean. I’ll try to call you less in the future.”

Lysander opened her mouth, wanting to deny it, yet she found herself unable to utter words that would contradict her heart.

What she had just said, indeed, conveyed that meaning.

“All right, Lysander. I understand. I’ll give serious thought to what you just told me.”
