"Lucas, are you out of your mind?"

Aveline was speechless.

She had done nothing, and yet he was suggesting arranging a room for her with another man. Was he out of his mind?

Lucas stared at her intensely for a long time before saying, "Aveline, you can't accept another man, nor can you love another man. If I find out, you might not die, but that man will wish he was dead." His tone was serious, a grave warning. The possessiveness in his eyes was utterly undisguised.
