Chapter 49

• Recently, every time I looked at Valens, I felt my heart skip a beat. Every time I looked at him, I got a little breathless. Every time I looked at him, I noticed something new about him. For example, when he smiled, the corners of his eyes crinkled and completely took away the frosty edge around him. When he was tired, he’d close his eyes for a second and take a deep breath. He was also quite attentive to details so when I pushed a dish away, he made sure I never saw that dish a second time. Most of all, I noticed just how handsome he was.
• In the past, I liked blondes with boyish smiles, the kind that were warm and looked cute and harmless rather than hot. However, recently, I realized my type was more hot guys with brooding eyes and dark hair who repelled people with their suffocating and cold aura.
• “You keep staring at me,” he said and his deep voice made my stomach tighten. I touched my stomach and he raised a brow. “Are you uncomfortable?” I could not respond. Rather, I averted my gaze and shook my head, going hot all over. “You’ve been acting strange these days. What are you hiding?” He asked but I still could not look him in the eyes. It scared me that I may make silly googly eyes at him if I did.
