Leaning into his embrace, Aurora Blaine smelled a faint scent of alcohol on Maverick Knight.
She cupped Maverick's face, turning him to face her directly.
Their eyes met, his deep-set eyes reflecting her face, with an intensity that seemed capable of swallowing her whole.
Aurora understood Maverick's feelings. Reina Thorne was right; anyone would be upset in his place.
Aurora tried to soothe him, "Don't be mad. I had no choice. Coaching is just a hobby for me. If I told them, with so many people in the club gossiping, it'd be trouble sooner or later."
In their relationship, Maverick was nonchalant, but she was different; it was not suitable for her to go public right after debuting.
It's not because a celebrity romance would cost her fans.
What concerned her more was that being Maverick Knight's girlfriend would overshadow everything else.
People would no longer see her ability, their first reaction would always be "Quinn Family's third master's girlfriend."
