Chapter 180: A day out (2)
By the time the carriage stopped, Selene had calmed down from the moment between her and Xavier. Now, Selene looked forward to walking around and getting what else she needed.
Xavier was the first to exit, offering his hand to offer for her to get out of the carriage.
"Thank you," Selene said, still holding onto his hand when she was safely out. Her eyes met with Lucas and as she expected, Lucas could not meet her eyes for long.
Xavier didn’t understand the look he received from Selene like she wanted to scold him. She reminded him of a very angry little kitten and now he wondered if Selene’s time on the estate would be better if she had a pet.
Xavier never cared for them since they required too much attention and it would be pointless with him going to sleep but Selene might care for it. When he would be out of the estate, a pet should keep Selene company.
The issue was there would be too many to choose from. If it was a pet for him, Xavier would capture a shapeshifter and voice them to remain as a bat but Selene wouldn’t like it.
Xavier watched Selene, trying to understand how two people with different hearts worked so well together. He enjoyed torturing others while Selene would be the one to take pity and try to free others.
Despite their differences, Xavier didn’t have any intentions of letting go of Selene so even now, he held onto her hand to not let her slip away from him.
"Where must you go first?" Xavier asked.
