Sydney Sage + Adrian Ivashkov
"Comments on my weight are neither wanted nor appreciated," she replied primly, self-consciously brushing a hand down the front of her skirt. Sydney couldn't help but compare herself to Moroi girls thanks to the criticism her father had spent years heaping on her, and she was trying to get past it, but it was hard.
"I knew it would show if someone was lying, but I didn't realize it was sensitive enough to show bluffing." This was a much better conversation than discussing her appearance, in her opinion, and she was eager to continue it instead of the other...or at least she did, until he smiled at her and completely distracted her from her thoughts.
Really, if he could tell when someone was bluffing from their aura, why couldn't he tell how madly in love with him she was? Absently, she returned his smile. "Alright. I'll try to do that more often."
