Chapter 44: Sona and Adam
As Adam absorbed Sona's words, he felt a shock race through him, unable to comprehend the revelation she had just casually shared. "Wait... are you saying you can read my mind?" he stammered, still processing.
Sona blinked twice in surprise, slightly tilting her head, her wings fluttering gently.
"Did I say something wrong, Lord Adam?" she asked innocently, a trace of confusion in her voice.
Adam shook his head quickly. "No, not at all," he replied, but curiosity got the best of him.
A mischievous thought flickered across his mind. Let's see if she really can read minds.
He looked at her, thinking, You're adorable, Sona.
Sona, who had been hovering just in front of him, flushed and looked down, nervously fidgeting with her tiny fingers. "Th-thank you, Lord Adam," she stammered, her face turning a soft pink, clearly aware of his thought.
Her reaction confirmed it for Adam, and he let out a small chuckle.
"Alright, Sona," Adam said, trying to maintain a firm tone, "from now on, don't peek into my thoughts unless I call your name first."
Sona immediately saluted, her wings giving an excited buzz as she swirled around Adam's head in a playful circle. "As you wish, Lord Adam!" she replied, her joy apparent as she darted around him like an excited sprite.
