My heart sank a little when I saw Marcellus strutting in.
He had a bright smile on his face, with one hand in his coat pocket and the other casually waving at me.
He actually looked good… thank the gods. I'd been afraid that the potion I used to drug him would leave side effects.
The playful glint in his eyes reminded me of the night we had last spoken. Which, unfortunately, had been right before I drugged him.
"Well damn, I was expecting a little more excitement," He drawled when he finally got in front of me, spreading his arms. "I haven't seen you in five days, and all I get is a gasp?"
"I..." My voice faltered as I took a step forward, glancing at Kaelos, who raised an eyebrow before I sighed deeply with guilt. "I'm sorry, Marcellus."
Marcellus blinked before he scoffed lightly. "What now?"
Damn, did the potion mess with his memories too?
