In the silence the couple kept in the car, Evelyn's mind wandered. It went back to the origin of the debt Daemon was using as an argument, and her lips twitched, almost curling into an amused smile. It was a debt she had accepted out of pride, a pit dug for her by her own ego.
Evelyn felt amused, before she was reminded of Daemon's smirk that day when he accepted her demand almost too swiftly. She sent a glare Daemon's way, then looked away before he could reply with an eyebrow raised in confusion.
The atmosphere in the car would have been very entertaining for Dinaia, but it was interrupted by the sound of a notification going off.
The surprised Evelyn turned her head to look down at the armrest supporting Daemon's arm. Then she raised her head to look at him, before seeking to clarify her confusion:
"Is that my phone?"
