Transmigrated as the Cuck.... WTF!!!

Evelyn drifted to my side, her presence graceful as always. She nudged me lightly with her elbow, a teasing smile dancing on her lips. "That's quite the change, Cassius... especially for you."

I turned to meet her gaze, flashing her a confident grin. "People evolve, Evelyn. I suppose I just decided to stop being the background character in my own life."

She let out a soft laugh, lifting her hand to partially hide her face—an oddly elegant gesture, almost flirtatious. "Well, it suits you. This version of you—confident, assertive—it's a good look."

Then her tone shifted. Her gaze sharpened, laced with curiosity. "Even the way you carry yourself changed. You don't shy away anymore. You used to avoid eye contact like it burned."

I raised a brow and tilted my head slightly, smirking. "You've been watching me pretty closely, huh? Am I your secret crush or something?"

Evelyn's eyes widened in brief surprise before narrowing with a sly grin. She stepped in closer and laid a hand lightly on my shoulder, her fingers cool and steady. "What if you are?" she asked, her voice lowering just a notch. "What would you do then?"

Without missing a beat, I placed my hand over hers. My other hand silently found it's place near her waist, closing the distance between us. I leaned in, my breath grazing her ear. "That depends... What do you want me to do?"

She tensed for the briefest second, a subtle shiver running through her frame. And then, just as quickly, she stepped back—composure regained, but not before a faint blush had bloomed across her cheeks.

"Careful," she murmured with a slight smirk, "you're getting good at this."

Before I could press further, a loud gasp broke the moment.

"Wowww," Lilith drawled, practically sliding into the scene like a cat catching her prey mid-pounce. "You two sure are getting freaky, huh? Right here in front of everyone? Scandalous."
