Missy could not stop herself from feeling restless.
Whether it was when Raven guided her into the most luxurious hotel in York, or when the receptionist politely greeted them like any other married couple, she simply could not focus properly.
And when the woman addressed her as Mrs. Ashcroft, Missy could only blink like an idiot whose mind had completely stopped working.
"This way, sir."
A staff member opened the door to the luxurious penthouse suite while another carried their luggage inside.
There...
Another dazzling room Missy had once experienced with Raven before.
Yet this time, it somehow felt entirely different.
Raven removed his coat before stepping closer to help her out of hers as well.
"It's warm in here. You can take it off."
Even now, hearing Raven speak near her ear sent a shiver down her spine.
Were they really...
Really going to do it?
Why did everything suddenly feel so different now?
She could not stop her heartbeat from spiraling out of control.
