"This is already the second time tonight that a woman has kissed me forcefully."
Looking at Luviya, Shard touched the corner of his mouth and then said with a smile. Although tri-colored moonlight entered his eyes, only silver moonlight reflected back.
"The other one, was that the Duchess?"
The girl with purple eyes asked softly, but she seemed completely indifferent to it.
"Yes, it was Miss Galina."
"It's okay, you don't have to tell me these things."
"But I like you."
Somehow, under the moonlight, as he looked at Luviya Fiocchi Annette who stood against the moonlight, the words slipped from Shard's mouth.
Luviya's expression seemed to change for a moment, and yet it seemed not to change at all. Her purple eyes stared into Shard's eyes, as if they could see into his soul.
