Chapitre 98: Clash of the titans (1)

As Lina steadied herself and quickly set herself at a safe distance from the stranger holding her, she turned around to get a look at him. 

Mana was silent as a mouse, simply astounded at the man facing them. 

A little pool of drool began to form at the side of her mouth. Suddenly she had forgotten all about the dessert stalls. 

Lina's face turned dark, as her eyes fell upon the man's silky long hair, confident, yet lazy smile and his steely eyes. 

He casually slipped his hands into the pockets of his black pants and let his gaze linger on Lina. 

"Are you okay, miss?" his low, soothing voice asked her softly. 

"I'm fine." Lina replied monotonously.

Mana quickly pulled Lina aside and bowed graciously to him. 

"Thank you so much for helping us, really. We're very grateful!" 

Lina looked at her friend, confused. 

'Why is she acting so subservient to him? He held me without my consent!'
