Chương 103: A Dress to Impress  

[EVE]

I woke up not to the jarring sound of my alarm, but to something thick and sticky being licked onto my face.

Groggily, I cracked open an eye to see Sebastian's big, cheerful face hovering over me, tail wagging in his typical, happy way.

"Mm . . . what? It's the weekend," I mumbled, pulling the covers up in protest. "Why are you waking me up this early?"

Sebastian was unbothered by my groggy state, and nudged his nose against the alarm clock on my nightstand, as if he were trying to point something out.

"What? Are you hungry?" I yawned, peeking at the clock. "It's only ten in the morning, Sebastian. Can't you let me sleep until eleven? It's the weekends"

Just as I started to close my eyes again, a sudden thought jolted me awake.

The auction!
