"Love?" Felix repeated after her as if she had just said a strange word and he smirked. He looked a bit mischievous with the smirk on his face even though it was completely serene.
"What's wrong with that?" She asked feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Nothing at all. You should know that Lothaire is too heartless for that, it's only the mating bond that's at work here." He said and she felt her chest tighten.
If he was right, then neither of them were in love but what was she thinking anyway, she couldn't just fall in love with someone she met a couple of weeks ago.
But still, what she felt for him was...Undescribable. Felix watched as sweat garnished her forehead and he wondered if he shouldn't have told her that but it was the truth anyway.
"He's not heartless." She managed to say with a firm but small voice as she looked at the plants.
