Lorraine Hughes encountered Anthony during her morning run, returning from outside.
His eyes were bloodshot, with dark circles beneath them, clearly from overindulgence.
"Isn't this little sister Belle? Up so early? Want some breakfast?" Anthony hooked a bag of egg pancakes with his finger and offered them to Lorraine, his eyes fixated on her.
Lorraine walked past him without acknowledging his gesture.
Anthony suddenly moved closer, forcing Lorraine to back up against the wall.
He placed his hand by her ear, trying to enchant her: "Has anyone ever told you that you're very beautiful?"
Lorraine wasn't intimidated by his approach in the slightest, and calmly said, "Anyone with eyes would think so."
Her cool demeanor immediately ignited Anthony's fascination; he'd been with many women but rarely encountered such a stunning beauty.
A cold beauty exuded from within her bones.
