Chương 52: The Blurry Lines

 *Kiara's POV*

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw him standing downstairs, holding the fluffy, reddish orange bundle in his arms, almost completely oblivious to the fact that the creature was frightened...perhaps by him or the strange room.

I did know what it was,but it was red and red meant danger.Matching it with his black clothes didnt make it look any better.I shouldn't be so close to it.Or him.

"Hello Kiara." He greeted warmly.

"What is that?" I asked, narrowing my eyes at the ball of fur.

"A peace offering."

I raised an eyebrow brow "We are not at war."

My hands patted a bit of the animal's fur, and it raised its adorable, curious eyes to meet me. I recognized it immediately.

"Red panda?"

"The most beautiful one I could find."He answered,sending familiar signals to my body.

I fought back a rush of heat towards my cheek, but it consumed me and I had to lower my head to hide it.
