"Who said I did it for Asher Quinn? I did it because I am Cosette Blac. I didn't appreciate that he interrupted me, Cosette Blac, from teaching my friend a lesson that would haunt him forever."
Cosette drew a deep breath as she looked away from him. She cocked her head back, gazing at the night sky full of stars.
"I think you already know this, Ash, but your family name only works for others. Who cares if you're a Quinn or a descendant of Satan himself? I am Cosette Blac, and for me, my family name is more intimidating than the Quinn," she continued with a tinge of confidence and playfulness. "Isn't that the reason you're drawn to me and mistook it as love?"
Her lips curled up into a short smile, facing him. "Because among the people surrounding you, I am the only person who wouldn't care if you're a Quinn since I am a Blac."
And that was true.
