Kaia braced herself for an interrogation, but Lucien simply nodded and said, “Alright.”

Alyssa scoffed, her tone dripping with sarcasm, “Oh, please, Alden. Kaia’s with Uncle Lucien now. Got something to say? Say

it to his face.”

Alden’s lips pressed into a thin line, his eyes flickering with hurt.
