Keira glanced at him and nodded slightly.

She had already called her father, Uncle Olsen, and the Freeman Sect's leader. Both had responded promptly, showing just how fast things could move.

Since my reputation as a love-struck fool is already out there, I might as well embrace it."

Keira was at a loss for words.

Lewis was right. She couldn't overcompensate just to appease outsiders, or it would seem insincere.

Clearing her throat, Keira said softly, "Then I'm sorry for the trouble."

"Serving my wife is no trouble at all."
