    Thssa was brooding when out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a pair of piercing,


    deep-set eyes. She tried to look away, but Lysander''s icy gaze pulled her back.

    His eyes seemed to swirl with a blizzard, threatening to consume her very soul.


    Thssa''s heart pounded like a drum inside her chest. What had she done now to upset him?

    suddenly rang out.


    He was responding to Evelyn''s earlierment, offering her reassurance.


    Thssa was surprised. She turned to nce at him, his ruggedly handsome features sharp and


    resolute, exuding a potent masculine charm.
