Kira also noticed her disheveled appearance– her clothes unkempt, her skirt slightly hanging above her knees exposing her flawless thigh, unbuttoned blouse revealing her cleavage and her bra not in the proper place it should be. Before the male staff could see her in that messy but sexy state, Kira immediately grabbed the man, turning him around to block his view on Marceline. Then Kira shut the door behind. He didn't allow him to have a glimpse of Marceline's hot appearance. That was for his eyes…
