"W-What did you say?" Lucian asked acting as if he was still unclear of her words.
Ariana was shamelessly staring at Lucian snapped out of her thoughts when he questioned her.
'Can this floor split into two and swallow me up' Ariana felt like crying as she mentally cursed herself for being this audacious.
Gasping like a dying fish Ariana tried to come up with an excuse but couldn't as she found it hard to even utter a word. He was so close that she felt nervous.
Lucian watched her cheeks turn pink and once again the corner of his lips lifted as he heaved out an amusing smile knocking her embarrassment flat and watched as she quickly averted her eyes from him.
"N-nothing... I didn't say anything" She lied and started playing with the pen in her hand nervously.
Ariana just wanted to dig a hole for herself and hide there until Lucian was out of her sight.
