822 Bashful Kary

Reaching the room first, Alex ran into the walk-in wardrobe and hid in a row of dresses that Kary had brought.

She wasn't fast enough to see where he hid and entered the wardrobe in fury, still whisper-screaming.

"Why did you invite her to lunch?! I'm trying to get her to leave. I barely had time alone with you, and people keep barging in on us."

Alex stifled his laughter before using a trick to send his voice away from him.

With a bit of wind magic, he made the air vibrate away from him, mimicking his voice.

"I know. But it would be rude to push her out now. After lunch, I'll ask her to leave. I promise."

Kary walked toward the voice and pulled the clothes apart. But Alex wasn't there.

She had gotten good at detecting magic on this side, but still couldn't pinpoint Alex's location.

"Stop hiding; face me like a man!" she growled.
