Pival stood aside, listening to their familiar chatter with a look of utter displeasure on his face.
He had thought Aaron looked familiar from the moment he laid eyes on him, but he couldn’t quite place where he’d seen him before.
Now that Aaron and Vivienne were standing together, it became abundantly clear. The young man was practically a male carbon copy of Vivienne in his choice of attire
