章節 170: A strange thought (R-18)

Till late into the night, Seraphina and Raven stayed at the shop, selling their freshly baked cookies. The festival continued outside, though the crowd had dwindled, with fewer people passing by.

Eventually, they decided it was time to close up. The air was still buzzing with celebration, but as the night wore on, the festivities were changing.
