Nova stood there as she stared at him stunned and his brows raised in surprise before he reflected back on the words she just said to him, one by one, to make sure he did not mishear her in any way or form.
Seeing him lost in his thoughts, her eyes narrowed as she lowered her gaze a bit and gritted her teeth.

She took a small step back, his eyes fixed on her every move. He knew she said something she was not supposed to. "Forget I said anything just now. Just forget it, alright? This has nothing to do with you. You are getting involved in something that you do not understand, something that could kill without thinking twice."
