"You knew I was there that day, don't you?" Severine found it embarrassing to say it aloud, but she did it anyway. "When Emily was trying to seduce you."
If she had been in the same situation, she would never have let go of anything that could jeopardize her future.
But Killian had let her go. Not only that, he even gave her the illusion that she no longer needed to worry about the matter.
No wonder he was the ultimate villain. If he didn't show it openly, no one could guess what he was thinking.
"Why, though? At that time, we didn't even know each other."
Honestly, if she had awakened all of a sudden, she couldn't have guessed it either.
Her own senses were that sharp, so how could Killian's be any worse?
All he needed to do was take a normal walk around, and he would know someone was hiding nearby.
"I did know it was you, Severine. Along with someone else."
His gaze fell on his hand, or rather on Severine's fingers, absently tracing over his knuckles.
