There was a suspicious shadow who’d been following him around for hours. An unknown opponent who irked his nerves.
Turning slightly on his heels in front of the entrance to the maze garden, he glared at the dark, concealing shadows around him.
Duke Lionel de Sentoren [ML]
You, girl. Don’t hide. Show yourself.
Earlier, Riv had silently tailed the two when Princess Marianne followed Duke Sentoren outside the banquet hall.
Riv Katana/ Olivia [FL]
[What do I do now?]
Just then, Duke Sentoren’s voice rang coldly in her ears.
Duke Lionel de Sentoren [ML]
You, girl. Don’t hide. Show yourself.
Riv’s entire body flinched upon being discovered.
Riv Katana/ Olivia [FL]
[How should I behave? What should I say to him?]
Duke Lionel de Sentoren [ML]
I think I told you not to keep hiding.
Riv Katana/ Olivia [FL]
[Did I really get caught?]
Riv had been hiding a considerable distance away from him, far enough that she could barely hear their conversation in spite of the princess’ loud yelling.
When Riv looked up, Duke Sentoren towered over her.
His blazing eyes pierced her, and Riv found her knees trembling uncontrollably in the face of his intensity.
Riv pulled herself together quickly, hiding her tremors by wrapping her arms around herself.
Riv Katana/ Olivia [FL]
[Don’t be afraid!]
Riv Katana/ Olivia [FL]
[Why is this man so tall?]
Riv felt baffled standing in front of him.
Duke Sentoren showed no signs of surprise, let alone amazement, upon seeing her.
He was even taller than she was.
Duke Sentoren’s rough-looking face displayed evidence of a brutal past, and his amber eyes glowed with anger.
In the face of such intense scrutiny and suspicion, Riv found it difficult to think, the tremor in her limbs growing worse.
