We break away, and I gaze into those gorgeous blue eyes that burn only for me. “I love you, Milena La Croix, with everything I am.”I smile as I hold my hand out and feel Xander place the gun in my hand, still smiling at Zion before I look upwards. A little something I planned.One shot. One chance
~ MILENA ~His eyes now flick to me, and those words take me by surprise. I hate how it shows on my face, and it takes me a second to school my emotions.“Yeah, he isn’t, and my brother and mentor are also not here. No big deal.” But the moment the words leave my lips, I realise it is a big deal; it
~ MILENA ~It’s been a few weeks since it all went down, and after the cacophony of delicious chaos, it was followed by serenity. A peace like I have never experienced before.The high officials of the government were notified of the situation, and things were brought under control. Many Arkan hunte
We both turn as that voice cuts through the room, not realising where he had come from.“Fuck,” Adriana mutters before static erupts, and she’s cut off. I raise my gun as Raze smirks. His smile is far too wide for someone who is about to die.“You made it,” he says, his voice echoing in here. “You a

“Ok… let’s eat,” I say, hoping the food distracts them from the intense eye lock between them. “So now the car crash makes sense. What exactly are you involved in that is putting Valerie in danger?” Atticus growls just as I plate the grilled chicken. “Atticus…” I say, feeling a sting at his words,
VALERIE. “Get away from her!” Atticus snarls, grabbing my arm and yanking me behind him protectively, the flowers he had passed me falling to the floor.
