The man brushed his fingers down her cheeks to her jaw before taking hold of her chin between his thumb and forefingers, making her look right into his eyes.
"Right, compensation. So, are you ready for that? I'll definitely forgive you."
Annalise opened her mouth but hesitated to speak for the next couple of moments.
"What? You don't agree?" Kenric asked while arching his eyebrows in question as he stared back at her.
Annalise hurriedly shook her head but when he only raised his eyebrows further in question, she ended up hurriedly nodding her head.
"Little Bird, use words to answer. Your head shakes and nods are puzzling me." Kenric spoke in his husky tone as he brought his face quite closer to hers.
