Chương 550: 550. Revealing

Mauve opened her eyes and noticed Jael was not in bed. She frowned, sitting upright immediately as she rubbed her eyes.

Even though she was already aware of her surroundings, it took her a couple of seconds for her brain to process it.

She wondered where he could have gone and just as she was about to get out of bed, the door to his room opened and he walked in.

"You're awake," he said and she nodded.

Mauve frowned as her eyes rested on him, he looked like he had rushed out. His hair was in disarray and it wasn't in its usual ponytail. Mauve thought it gave him a gruff roguish look.

"What?" He asked at her intense stare.

"I was just thinking you should let your hair down more often," she whispered.

He chuckled, the familiar sound teased at her ears. "That's my line," he replied and got closer, standing at the side of the bed as he stared down at her.
