"I need you t-"
"So all those times you deny approaching me saying that it was your friend—Mirel, who was the one trying to get close to me not you, all of that was a lie. I knew it, you were lying, from the very start!"
Jumping to conclusions, Thalia averted her gaze away and fanned her red face.
She was embarrassed that Lucivar would actually ask that.
Even though she said anything, she didn't expect him to ask for her like this.
Both of them barely knew each other.
"Look, I can't accept that—at least not now. We need to at least get to know each other first and start from there. I know you saved my life but I'm not a princess who would fall t-"
Out of nowhere, Lucivar placed his hand above her hand.
Thalia felt a shock of electricity from his touch, a spark of some sort but that sensation was short-lived when she saw Lucivar's disbelief mixed with a pitiful face. He was looking at her as if she was an idiot who couldn't be cured.
