"What do you think?" Endo asked Lauriel.
The man could only pinch his forehead. All this was giving him a headache. He was now convinced that Aleksis did have a special relationship with the leader of Rhionen Assassins.
Thinking about the fact made him very sad. Why did Aleksis, whom he helped raise and educate as a smart and independent girl, allow herself to be involved with that underworld organization?
Now, seeing the attitude of Takeshi, who easily gave in because Endo used Aleksis' name, he realized that Aleksis' relationship with Rhionen Assassins and their leader might be far deeper than what her family had expected.
What if Aleksis had fallen in love with him? Did the young girl know what love really was? She had only turned 20!
Lest Alaric Rhionen brainwash her ... so Aleksis became like that.
