章節 86: If You Want

In lieu of a response to her outburst, Evian stared into Ember's eyes. For the first time, he noticed pretty black specks in her brown pupils that appeared to be moving almost imperceptibly. 

Ember stared right back, a bit annoyed at how quickly his handsome face was distracting her from being appropriately upset. She let out a long sigh that appeared to pull Evian out of his observation.

"So," he said gently, "How mad are you?"

"What?"

"I mean, how angry are you still?" Evian clarified.

Ember shrugged,

"Not as angry as I was before, I guess," she said, "I think I got it all out."

Evian raised a brow in surprise as his lips turned up slightly in a smile,

"Really?" he asked.

Ember snorted,

"What, You want me to continue?"

"No, no. You got your point across nicely," he said with a nod.
