As Caden Lockwood spoke, a faint smile lingered on his lips, cloaking him in a layer of warmth that made him even more irresistibly handsome.
His gaze remained fixed on Evelyn Morgan as he raised his hand to straighten her disheveled hair, his fingertips brushing gently against her soft cheek, tracing a light caress.
Lightly parting his thin lips, he continued, "In your heart, there is only goodness and beauty. I will use my ability to shield you from evil and ugliness so that your everlasting beauty can continue. You have nothing to fear, just stay by my side."
Listening to Caden Lockwood's voice, rich and intoxicating like fine wine, Evelyn Morgan found her breath catching, her amber eyes reflecting his image, his deep affection almost melting her.
How long have they known each other, and how could he speak words that understand her so well?
Had she met him before?
