MasukWe 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
