Eden stiffened at the hand that wrapped around his waist. He turned to Adrian, who had his eyes on Leo.
Adrian smiled, "How sure are you that he doesn't have anyone else to protect him? Do you want to try?"
Leo understood what he meant, so he said nothing. Their eyes met while Eden panicked over the fact that people were watching.
Adrian comfortably had his hand on his waist, and it had drawn attention from people. People who were muttering and staring now.
"Oh?! The Grand Marquis is in as well?" a lady said, giggling to her friends.
"Oh dear. I didn't know this. Has his charm also gripped it?"
"I fear it has."
"Now there aren't only two teams, but three?" a noble lady expected.
"What if it's four?"
"Huh?"
"I mean, The Grand Duke is also here. You never know..."
"Yes! I see the vision. They'd also make a good pair. I think I love them better."
They discussed with eyes on them. Eden slowly removed Adrian's hand from his waist as he muttered to him, "People are watching."
