"Adapt-a-table?" South raised an eyebrow, chuckling, "Sorry, not equipped with that feature."
Nathan's gaze darkened as he looked at her.
South noticed Nathan's dangerous look, aware that it was a sign of his impending anger.

"Okay." Nathan agreed to South's request without even asking what it was about.
