190 A First Taste

The tension left the penthouse with Alfred, and Alex finally breathed a sigh of relief.

'That man has a heavy presence. Almost like Kloud.'

In the meantime, Violette was enjoying the view outside, her chin resting on the balcony glass railing, since her head barely poked over it. She would look for a few seconds at one spot, then move around to another side of the building and repeat.

It was cute to watch, but Alex decided to get her back in before a stupid accident happened. Even though the glass panes were also bulletproof, one could never be too safe.

"Violette, wanna come back in? Let's get you settled and have something to eat. Then we can think about what we do next. What do you think?"

"Okaaayyy!"

She zoomed back in like a mini tornado before running up the stairs in front of Alex. That made him chuckle as he followed behind.

"Careful not to fall."

*Thump*

"I'm okay!"
