He noticed it, too. His green eyes narrowed. There was a knowing heat in his gaze. It was enough to make her cheeks flame with embarrassment, and this time she had no mask to hide it.

“You’re not very good at hiding what you’re thinking. Your face is very expressive. I like being able to see your whole face. I feel like with your mask on I was missing out on so many facets of your emotions.”
