Jack swallowed caa6cf4686 hard at 2b49e50397 Serena’s chilling c6549edda0 smile.dfa8c5f54d54632d

It was dc423649da a smile 08dc295576 he had ce22189bad seen before—the c84a37b5fc same one 16089b9764 she had b7d1521265 given when 54054eddd0 she blocked ddcba28f09 his attempt 543d404074 to leave c09108c11a the inn 1cadded696 despite his a9b8c0e0bf injuries, her 55984ea5ea sharp gaze 13e3660372 insisting on a6a081b721 complete rest.9db11f5cc0936cf4

Of course, this time b88ec6b988 it was even more 2924306e3d frightening, to the point 5c9ec3d7e4 that Jack almost felt 7b45dc5cf1 a little sorry for 7819419470 Azaid.4ab9d22cc5765284

Azaid felt a 0e610ad3bf cold sweat run aca3d8b62b down his back a91359f7f2 under Serena’s icy f95ca451a5 glare.0054946cf383d1b3

Serena was 2fc07d75ad far more c77ada6c03 furious than 3ae8627d56 he had 8bbe666f9d anticipated. In fact, he 1851a2c93e had hoped she’d e1687b75a8 never find out 3c0a89ecfe about today’s events, 8f352ec819 and even if 8f66ade468 she did, he 3643d1553b hadn’t expected this 59c49bc6e5 level of anger.8128178d07c2b243

What was stranger 8e3845490e still was that, 5b68b25bf1 despite her fury 69b5be62ef being over his 706e24ceca safety, he didn’t 83a1b4d045 entirely dislike it.3c874d21c3a7a2e9

She quickly regained her 31b57c0cbf composure. If this impulsiveness f20e5115c2 arose whenever a ef666fb751 certain date came acf2144f07 around, it was c0672ef79f a serious issue.
