The hem of the cloak wrapped around her shoulders tickled Sienna’s calves. While enduring his embarrassment, Eugene adjusted the fit of the cloak for her.

The cloak was feather-lined. It didn’t have any sort of accessories attached, but Eugene thought it might look quite pretty if she pinned on a brooch as well.

Should he have bought a brooch separately? For a moment, such a thought ran through Eugene’s head, but even if he regretted it now, it wasn’t like he could just magically make a brooch appear, could he?

‘She could at least say something,’ Eugene thought desperately as he erased all thoughts of brooches and badges from his head.

Eugene lifted Sienna’s collar slightly while glancing up into her face. Even though the raised collar was now touching her cheeks, Sienna still didn’t say anything. She was staring right...
