LUSKGAVL POV
The next morning, he woke up at 7 a.m. and made his way downstairs, where he spotted Lockhart, his mother, and Lockhart's butler preparing breakfast. He joined them at the table, taking a seat next to his mother, with Lockhart and the butler across from them.
"You should have told me to cook; I would have been happy to help," Luskgavl said. Lockhart reassured him, "No worries, we know how to prepare breakfast," to which his mother smiled in agreement. After enjoying their meal, his mother left for work in Berlin, while Lockhart and his butler remained at his house to finalize preparations for the event later in the day.
LUCKSTEN POV
On his way to the set of his upcoming movie "Grill," which features a blend of romance and action, he parked his car in the lot and made his way inside. As he walked through the set, the crew greeted him with cheerful "good mornings." He approached Alistaira Fleurwizch, who was already there.
"Good morning," he said, and she looked up, admiring his ensemble—a crisp white long-sleeved button-down shirt paired with light olive green pleated trousers and his classic, slightly textured hairstyle.
"You look stunning today, Dominic," she complimented, with a bright smile. Alistaira herself was dressed beautifully in a cream-colored off-the-shoulder sweater and light beige wide-leg trousers, accentuated by a brown belt.
"Do I? Thanks for the compliment," he replied, taking a seat across from her as they awaited the next scene. Just then, his butler approached, saying, "Good morning, Sir. I've received the invitation for your evening engagement at the royal palace at 5 p.m. I'll prepare your suit for the event, and we will leave the set by 3 p.m. to ensure you're ready by 4 p.m." He bowed respectfully as he finished.
"Alright, I'll be counting on you," Lucksten replied. The butler acknowledged this and headed off to prepare.
"You've been invited to the royal palace, huh?" Alistaira remarked. Lucksten turned to her and asked, "It happens regularly for me; what about you?"
Just then, a young lady approached, requesting the space for the next scene, which would take place in the house they were using for filming. Lucksten and Alistaira stood up and moved to his car, where they sat in the back seat, enjoying a more private conversation.
"I received an invitation as well," Alistaira shared. "My maid has been preparing everything since yesterday." As she scrolled through her Instagram, Lucksten glanced at the mirror, unable to help but admire her.
Although there was a five-year age gap between them—she was 22 and he was 27—he found himself drawn to her. When she caught him staring, she teased, "You've been looking at me nonstop; what's on your mind?"
Lucksten met her gaze and replied, "You look beautiful today, no lie."
She blushed, smiling back at him. "Thank you… you look handsome too." He returned her smile, appreciating the connection they were sharing.
