The Special Class Room finally came into view at the end of the elegant corridor. Aiden suddenly stopped walking, his expression shifting into one of visible nervousness.
Both Valerina and Eliza looked up at him with confusion, still clinging tightly to his arms.
"What happened, Sir?" Valerina asked softly.
"Is something wrong, My Eminence?" Eliza added calmly.
Aiden smiled nervously, rubbing the back of his neck with his free hand.
"I… didn't really think about how I'm going to introduce you two to my wives," he admitted. "Especially Ly and Selvara. I'm not too worried about the others — they'll probably love having you both. But Ly… she'll be a bit furious at first before she agrees. And what I'm most afraid of is Selvara…"
Both girls asked at the exact same time, voices overlapping cutely:
"Is she that scary?"
Aiden nodded, genuine terror etched on his face.
"She punches really hard."

Inside his head, Lunara immediately burst into a warm, teasing laugh.
