Their journey back to the mansion was suffused with silence. Damian stared at the void beauty's face blatantly, unworried by the funny gazes he received from the remaining girls. Which meant, for the girls to have noticed, there was no way the lady being stared at wouldn't have sensed his gaze.
"Why are you staring at me that way?" Claire asked, her flustered voice sounding so low it could pass for a whisper.
Hearing this, an amused smile couldn't help curl up Damian's lips. Then he replied:
"Because you are too beautiful."
His response took Claire by surprise. She paused for a moment, voicing out the only thing that came to her mind.
"Wh…what?"
"I said because you are too beautiful. What did you expect? Showing off like that in the presence of a big bad wolf like me? I can barely stop myself from gobbling you up right now."
