"Marry you? Where is that coming from? Are you sure you're alright?" Jared uttered, like a snake playing with its prey.
Feeling even more embarrassed, Kiara stormed forward, grabbed him by the arm, and pulled herself closer.
Though her face was beet red, she managed to cover it up with her determination.
"I don't know what in the hell you put in that kiss, Lord Jared... But you are going to take responsibility for it..."
Staring at her, Jared couldn't help but hold back his laugh.
The only reason he kissed her to begin with was to throw her off her game, make her see she wasn't the only one who could mess with him and get away with it.
Asserting his dominance in a way.
But this reaction...was far from what he was expecting.
"Cute," he blurted out, making sure Kiara heard it.
She flinched a bit, her gaze now on the ground.
But before she could say anything, Lucy showed up, positioning herself in their middle.
