"Hey, Marcus, you can't be taking all the best moments for yourself. I was about to say the same thing, but now it will just seem like I'm copying you." Quillon complained, showing a hint of envy.
Lyra was his lover after all, and he was feeling a tad left out as Marcus took the lead in comforting her.
"Sorry, you'll have to act quicker next time. Also, I'm Irene right now, not Marcus. I don't really care what you call me in private but try not to make that mistake when we're in public. It would be a pain to try and cover it up, especially down here.
Quillon's expression became flustered as Marcus chided him for his slip up. He had gotten caught up in the moment and completely forgotten about their current environment. Thankfully he had not made this mistake in the presence of any of the Lamias.
