Nina gazed at the pearl garment in Lex's hands.
In the past, she had never paid much attention to it. But now, as her eyes traced the countless pearls meticulously sewn into the fabric and jewelry, she finally understood just how much care and devotion had gone into every stitch.
A smile softened her features as she accepted the gift.
"Thank you. It's beautiful. I really like it."
The moment she took it, joy lit up Lex's eyes.
After a brief moment of thought, Nina retrieved a blue bracelet from her storage space.
"Give me your hand."
Lex obediently extended it.
Nina fastened the bracelet around his wrist.
"This is for you. The crystal embedded in it can help with training."
His hands were already elegant and striking. The bracelet only emphasized the smooth fairness of his skin and the graceful length of his fingers.
Lex stared at it in astonishment.
Nina had given him a gift. A gift meant specifically for him.
Sweetness spread uncontrollably through his heart.
