The lavender-haired assistant stared at the payment in awe, her hands trembling slightly as she processed the transaction. "T-Thank you, Sir… This is… more than generous."
Aiden simply nodded, that ever-present smug smirk on his face.
She hesitated for a moment, then asked politely, "Do you have a carriage waiting outside, Sir? Or should we prepare one for you? There's quite a lot of items here…"
Aiden shook his head. "It's alright. I'll take them myself."
The assistant blinked in surprise, looking at the towering pile of supplies. "H-How…? There's so much. Even with levitation charms, it would be difficult to carry all of this alone…"
Aiden stepped closer to her, his tall 6'2" frame towering over her petite 5'3" body once again. He raised his index finger and gently pressed it against her soft lips, silencing her mid-sentence.
"Just watch," he said, voice low and commanding.
