Bab 61: || Chapter 58 || The Lord's Lover?!

A deep chuckle, laced with amusement entered Moulin's ears. It was deep and almost enticing.

"You seem quite attached to that little book in your hands" His eyes glanced at the clasped notebook in Moulin's hands.

Moulin's eye twitched. His grip tightened on the book behind him. Inwardly, he was growing hostile.

Hadrian deepened his smile, "Your vigilance makes me want to wrench the secret from your hands. What do you want to hide to put on such an expression?"

"It's none of the Lord's business. Each of us carries a secret in our hearts. What makes me no different?" Moulin took a step back. It took an effort to relax the crease of his brows and straighten his expression. Calmly, he bowed to the Lord respectfully. "I welcome my Guild Lord. What owes me the pleasure of seeing the Lord in my room?" There was a hint of sarcasm in his voice as he spoke.
