After dinner, it was already close to ten o'clock.
Rosaline spoke up, "It's getting late. Why don't you stay the night here and leave tomorrow?"
"Alright."
Alicia stayed downstairs with Rosaline for a while, watching television before eventually heading upstairs to wash up.
Alexander, meanwhile, was still working in the library.
Not long after, however, he began to feel dizzy. Closing his laptop, he stood up and returned to the bedroom.
The room was empty, but the sound of running water came from the bathroom.
Alicia was taking a shower.
Alexander's heart began to race as several images flashed through his mind.
His brows furrowed as an unusual warmth spread through his body.
He knew exactly what was happening.
Walking to the wardrobe, he grabbed his pajamas, intending to use the other bathroom to wash up.
But when he tried the door handle, he realized—
It was locked.
