章節 40: Desire For Him

"What is going on?"

Micah feels her heart clench at his voice, a strange sting of betrayal and anger possessing her.

She turns away from him as if she couldn't hear his inquiry but Lidea, ever so observant, replies on her behalf, "She runs into that book chamber." She sighs, her gaze sharpening as her eyes find Ken. "And it's all because of you, Ken. Didn't I tell you to lock it?"

It is now that Miach notices that Ken is standing right beside Severo, the boy's eyes widening in shock, "Oh my! I'm so sorry, I just forgot about it— oh hell how could I forget, I'm so sorry! It's so reckless of me." He rushes to Micah's side.

"Yes, how could you forget? I've always reminded you to keep that chamber closed if we are having guests." Lidea chides.

"I'm truly sorry. Unit just slipped my mind." Ken mumbles, his voice is small and words wavering.
