The question hung heavily in the air, so thick it felt almost palpable.
Aliana could feel Gavriel's powerful muscles flex beneath his bespoke suit under her touch, and even in the midst of such tension, it still managed to send an involuntary shudder up her spine.
However, her eyes remained fixed on him, finally catching the moment his own eyes widened. It was a flicker of shock so slight that anyone else would have missed it, but Aliana managed to catch it with her close proximity.
On the other hand, Gavriel, for the first time, was genuinely thrown.
No one… and he meant no one had ever been able to see a being like Reve before.
Reve was an entity that even spirits failed to notice unless he chose to reveal himself. Only Gavriel and a few high-level beings were capable of seeing him.
So the question burned in his mind… 'Just how was this woman able to see him?'
