Kai is gripping the bottom seam of my dress, his eyes flicking up to mine. “May I?” His voice is soft, tone amused. I swallow, roll my eyes once again, and nod against my better judgment. And then he’s ripping my dress. He tears the fabric easily, creating a slit up the side of my thigh, freeing me from the tight confines of the fabric. His rough fingers briefly brush my skin as he says, “I am more than willing to rip your dresses for you, Gray. To help, of course.” Kitt snorts while Kai smirks. “You only need to ask.”
okay the trapdoor was here so paedyn could be too stubborn to ask for help, and then when she finally does bc her dress is too tight, kai gets to tear a slit in it. and the drop into the room was just so she could stumble into kai. both not good enough reasons for this absolutely insane room design. GET A LADDER AT LEAST.
