Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: What's Beneath Your Armor

Kai's POV

She giggled. "Instrumental? What a classic taste. My father loves instrumental music too, and we used to dance to it."

I smiled, as gentle as I could. "What about yours?"

She tucked her hair behind her ear, pleased by my attention. "I like romantic songs. Those that can give me butterflies."

"Hm…" I nodded, sipping on my water as I accidentally glanced at Kei and Zane.
