Reign's momentary silence made Celine nervous.
Her heart began to race, and the tension in the room grew heavier by the second. She couldn't shake the feeling that whatever he was keeping from her was something serious, something she needed to know.
'Did... did he kill her?' Celine thought to herself, fear creeping in.
Considering how cruel Reign could be, it wasn't out of the question.
But then she quickly shook her head, pushing the doubts away.
'No, why would he do that? It doesn't make sense,' she reassured herself.
In her mind, he might be rough around the edges, but he wouldn't murder someone just because he felt like doing it—especially not Seki, who look so sweet and kind.
"We need to find her!" Celine finally broke the silence, her voice filled with urgency.
"I already did that. It would be a waste of time," Reign replied, shaking his head.
