"Thought so."
Lucian stood up and, without even looking at her again, turned around and walked away from the women.

[Affection: 1… 4% (Afraid, Hungry)]

[Fiona Hayes]
[Affection: 3…4% (Thankful, Slightly Afraid)]
A few of the women glanced towards Chloe.
She remained seated, blankly staring at the place where Lucian had been, her expression eerily darkened…

After giving the women a little more food to fill their stomachs, Lucian finally decided to stroll out of the basement, out of the warehouse, and into the area outside.
His gaze wandered across the warehouse and towards the storage room a little distance away from it.
Kanna walked quietly alongside him, having decided to accompany him rather than stay in the basement.
For a while, neither of them said anything.
