Who would've guessed that one of the many people that Kayden had intended to spar with would be his romantic interest? Certainly not anyone who knew Kayden. And even if someone did, they would hardly expect him to successfully court you. But here you were, sitting in the great Kayden's lap as he addressed Kartein.

Kartein sat awkwardly, averting his eyes for a good few seconds. The atmosphere was tense. When Kartein looked back at you and Kayden, he cleared his throat, "This is shameless, even for you, Kayden." Kayden didn't answer right away, just smirking.

"Jealous cuz you can't find a partner?" Kayden asks smugly, grinning when Kartien glares at him. "You're a nutjob, falling for your enemy-" Kayden waves Kartien's words off.
