Chapter 744 

The sky was dark and filled with stars. The moonlight gleamed in the night. Adina became alert when she heard a knock on the window.

She put on a coat and pulled open the curtains, leaving a small gap for her to look outside the window. 

"It's me,” A deep and hoarse voice said. Adina saw a man in a black cloak standing on the balcony. He did not wear the golden mask, and his scar was visible under the moonlight. His features, jawline and the curvature of his pursed lips were the same as the image she had in her memory. Adina unlocked the window. He walked into her room from the balcony with the chill from the night air on him. His pupils appeared darker at night, but they lit up when they saw her. They were very alluring. 

Adina was attracted to him. Her heart skipped a beat. She acted calm and asked, "Why did you come here?” 

“I came to see you." His voice was low and rough. He fixed his gaze on her. 

“Did you miss me?” He placed his hands on Adina's shoulders. His hands were like burning charcoal. When the heat from his hands reached her shoulders, she felt as though her heart would be scorched by it. She quickly took a step back from him. She had not switched on the lights in her room. In the dark, she did not notice the trash can behind her and she tripped and almost fell. Fortunately, Duke's arms wrapped around her waist and held her firm. 

“Why are you avoiding me?” He whispered in her ear,“ Didn't you just volunteer to be my antidote after I was drugged a few days ago?” Adina's face turned red. That was different! She tried to squirm out of his arms, but he pulled her closer.
