Urmina's breath got stuck in her throat, and her eyes went as wide as they could the moment she heard Alex's words.
'Love? Me?'
Wtf?!
She couldn't believe it.
'Yeah, maybe I heard it wrong.'
In an instant, thousands of thoughts flashed past her mind, until she settled on this one.
Alex was a ruthless monster who killed anyone who so much annoyed him; there was no way he would ever fall in love with someone.
Yet, as she turned to look at Alex, all she found was him avoiding her eyes like a maiden in love. That look gave her goosebumps.
It was totally unexpected.
Not in her dreams had she ever imagined that the cold-faced Alex could ever make that expression.
'Wait a second...'
'Yeah, no. Please no... don't tell me he's blushing as well?!'
Alex, as if feeling her gaze on himself, hurriedly moved his gaze away from this side, back to surveying the surroundings, leaving Urmina to her demise.
