Evelyn’s POV I couldn’t help but lift my head up and stare blankly back at the man beside me. Kane seriously wanted my advice? My suggestion? “Really?” I asked dubiously. A short moment ago, I was thoroughly convinced that he was pissed off at me for having overstepped some unspoken boundary. I just couldn’t think of any other way to keep Alexander from picking up on the damn truth. Not for nothing, part of me still felt a bit of guilt for making such an impulsive move. I suppose I should consider it to be my penance. Well, that. And I was currently trying to repress the effects of that damned kiss we shared before. I never anticipated Kane to play into it so well. Kane half rolled his eyes and scoffed. “Well, it’s not as if how we were carrying on before was doing much good.”
