Kaia hesitated, her lips slightly parted, but no words came out.

So that was why he called. He was already outside.

No matter how reluctant she felt, she didn’t really have a choice. She got up and opened the door.

And there he was. His sharp features were softened slightly by the silver–framed glasses resting on his straight nose.

collarbone.

Kaia’s gaze landed on the small mole just below it, and for some reason, it felt….. seductive.

There was something dangerously precise about the way he looked–clean lines, quiet restraint, and an undertone that felt anything but harmless.

Her cheeks flushed. She quickly looked away and mumbled, “Why are you here?”

Kaia blinked. “Uh… I haven’t gone over in the past few days.”

Lucien nodded. “Alright. How about this weekend? I can go with you. Might be easier to figure things out and pick up whatever else you still need.”

And picking out furniture together was basically what couples would do.

But she nodded anyway. “Sure.”

Lucien raised his brows slightly. “Now… should I come in so we can talk about it, or do you prefer I just stand here?”
