Talia opened her eyes to see an anxious-looking Lucas looking down at her. His forehead was beaded with sweat and eyes wide. 

"Lu –Lucas?" Talia immediately sat up when she realised who was inside her room. "What are you doing here?" 

"I heard a voice screaming and talking from outside of your room. I was worried that something happened so I stepped into your room to wake you up," said Lucas. 

Hearing this, instead of being relieved and saying her gratitude to him for waking her up, Talia became more uneasy. 

For a man to enter a lady's room, it was enough for a woman's dignity and reputation to be ruined! Even though they were currently guests inside Lord Grey's manor, who was Lucas and Lotte's cousin, it was still not a good thing for Lucas to enter her room. Talia panicked slightly as she covered her body. She was wearing her thin nightgown and had to grab the quilt to fully cover herself from his eyes.
