"What the hell."
Nyx exclaimed, eyes wide as she stared at the scene unfolding before her.
She had expected something else—anything else.
Not this.
Not Alden practically on top of Amyra, their faces so close she could barely tell where one ended and the other began.
Her surprise quickly twisted into confusion… then suspicion… And finally—
Rage.
Just then, another voice interrupted her thoughts.
"See, Cecilia? I told you Alden's the real playboy."
Aziel's casual voice echoed through the room.
Playboy?
Right.
That was the word she'd been searching for.
Alden wasn't just a fool. He was a dangerous playboy.
Nyx had read about that kind of person in a novel she had been binge reading recently.
My Playboy, Dear.
It was a tale of heartbreak and betrayal.
It was about a girl—Page.
She was a cold and distant girl.
Everyone around her feared her.
But inside that cold facade, she was actually just a soft and innocent maiden.
She was just misunderstood.
