The ride to Vlad's castle was an awkwardly quiet one. Evelyn's head was lowered to her fingers, rethinking what happened earlier, and trying to digest it.
Apparently, this man sitting across from her in the carriage was Lord Vlad, the same man they desecrated his sanctuary.
Alright.
Markkus rejected her and marked Miranda as his mate. She understood that part as well…
But what does this man mean by she was his mate? Perhaps, he said so to save her from getting killed…maybe he felt sorry for her…or he mistook her for someone else?
But none of that made sense.
Evelyn slowly lifted her head to take a quick look at him, but she quickly averted her gaze when their eyes met.
This man scares her, and being in his presence makes her want to run away. Even though she averted her gaze, she could still feel his intense gaze on her.
