Hurried footsteps echoed in the hallway as Darius rushed towards his room. A maid caught his sight and went to inform him that Aurora asked to meet him.
"Tell her not now. I am busy." Darius dismissed the maid without even slowing down.
He needed to get to Lisa as soon as possible. He pushed open the door, and Lisa's head snapped in his direction. She was combing her hair in front of the mirror. As soon as she saw Darius at the door, she stood up, putting the wooden comb down on the table.
She felt something was different about him. He left early in the morning without telling her anything. And now that the afternoon had passed, he took a long to come back home.
"D-Darius?" She whispered, watching him striding towards her.
And before she could understand anything, he pulled her to his chest and crashed their lips in a passionate kiss. Lisa gasped but pulled herself together and let him have his way.
