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

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.
