Seeing Adam's sudden reaction, Edward's heart was gripped by a dark feeling.
The raven-haired youth turned his head in a certain direction, seemingly waiting for someone to arrive.
Edward waited, wondering just who was approaching. And the timing was… ominous to say the least.
Almost a minute passed, but he couldn't sense anyone.
Did he make a mistake? He couldn't help but think that.
Several more seconds passed, still, he couldn't sense anyone approaching.
Just when he was about to speak up, he finally heard the sound of footsteps.
And a few moments later, the silhouette of a woman could be seen walking along the marble path, approaching them.
Edward was stunned. Not by the identity of the approaching figure, but by how early Adam had sensed her arrival!
"What are you boys up to?" Came the melodic voice of the crimson-haired princess.
She approached the stone bench and took a seat beside Adam, glancing at them with a faint smile.
