Angelica was surprised to find him in a bookstore.
He stared at her hand on top of his and Angelica quickly removed her hand away. He picked up the book from the shelf before looking at her.
"I'll take it," he said.
Well, it is not like she could fight him to get it.
She nodded. "Do you like reading?"
"No. I am buying it to put it on my bookshelf."
Angelica smiled, realizing that he was being sarcastic. He always seemed annoyed.
Eva watched them from a distance, looking worried.
"Then maybe you can lend it to me. I'll read it fast and give it back to you so you can put it on your shelf."
He narrowed his eyes. "Do you like to read about monsters?"
She nodded, "Yes. It seems like we have the same taste."
Angelica wondered why he picked this particular book. She could hear him say the title 'the monster is me' in his dark husky voice. She would have believed him had he said so.
