Chương 202: Lurking in the Dark

"Have you met someone you are so deeply connected to, Eve?" The Duke asked as the music progressed. Her body was glued against his as he started moving. His steps were light and soon, she was lost in the music.

"That's a bit depressing isn't it."

"It's not."

"Do you believe in soul mates, Eve?"

"No."
