FAZER LOGINAllene We got back to the room later on, I decided to let it go and make up with him. At least I had regained his trust again, so the revenge plan could proceed. So slowly, I closed the distance between us, my hands resting lightly on his chest. I tilted my head up, my lips brushing his in a tentative kiss, soft and searching. He paused, his breath catching, but then he responded, his mouth moving against mine with a gentle hunger that matched the quiet fire building in me. His hands settled on my waist, fingers tracing slow circles, drawing me closer until our bodies aligned."Allene," he murmured against my lips, his voice a warm rumble. "What is this?""Just... let me feel you," I whispered, my fingers threading into his hair, pulling him back for another kiss. This one deepened gradually, our tongues meeting in languid strokes, exploring without rush. The anger began to dissolve, replaced by a sensual warmth that spread through my limbs. Draven's hands slid up my back, unzippi
Draven I stayed outside the door longer than I should have, because every time I tried to move forward my steps felt heavier than the last, like something inside me was holding me back from facing her after everything that had happened.Allene’s name stayed in my mind the entire way here, not leaving even for a moment, not giving me any space to pretend I was fine, not allowing me to push it aside like I usually would with everything else.I had been wrong about her.Not slightly wrong or misunderstood in some small way, but completely wrong in a way that had consequences I could not ignore anymore, because I had looked at her like she was the enemy when she had been telling me the truth all along.I raised my hand to knock once, then stopped, because I realized I did not even know what I was going to say that could undo the damage already done.Eventually I pushed the door open and stepped inside anyway.She was there, sitting on the bed with her back slightly turned toward me, acti
Draven The silence between us did not leave.It stayed.It followed me even when I stepped out of the room, even when I tried to focus on other things, even when I told myself that I didn’t care as much as it felt like I did. But the truth was, it was there, sitting in my chest, heavy and constant.And the more I thought about it…The more something felt wrong.Not with her.With me.I replayed everything she said.Every word.Every look.The way she stood there, trying to explain, trying to make me see, and the way I shut it down without giving her anything back. My jaw tightened slightly as I walked, my mind refusing to settle because the more I went over it, the more it didn’t sit right.What if she was telling the truth?The thought came quietly at first.Then louder.What if I was wrong?I stopped walking.My chest felt tight again, but this time it wasn’t anger.It was something else.Something heavier.If she was right… then I had been accusing her for nothing. I had been push
Draven When the report came, I did not wait to hear everything.“Alpha, there’s been an attack on the Luna just outside the—”That was enough.My body moved before the words even settled, my steps quick and urgent as I pushed through the territory without hesitation. Something in my chest tightened immediately, heavy and uncomfortable. Was she hurt? The thought alone made me move faster.The air felt different as I got closer, tense, carrying the faint scent of struggle, of movement that had already ended but still lingered. By the time I reached the scene, a few rogues were standing at a distance, not attacking anymore, just watching like something had shifted.“What happened?” I asked, my voice sharp as I stepped forward.They hesitated, exchanging looks, and that alone irritated me.“I asked what happened,” I repeated, my tone lower now, heavier.One of them finally spoke, his voice uncertain. “We're sorry.. we….”My gaze moved past them immediately.And then I saw her.Allene s
Allene “Fine then, if you don’t want to believe me then don’t!”The words left my mouth harsher than I intended, but I didn’t take them back. I couldn’t. Not when he stood there looking at me like I was a stranger, like everything I said meant nothing to him anymore.I didn’t wait for his response.I turned and walked out.Fast.Because if I stayed any longer, I didn’t know what I would say next, and I refused to stand there and beg him to believe me when I knew I was telling the truth.The air outside hit my face, cool and sharp, but it did nothing to calm the storm building inside me. My chest felt tight, my thoughts loud, everything mixing together in a way that made it hard to breathe properly.I kept walking.Further.Away from the encampment.Away from him.My steps were uneven now, not because I was weak, but because my mind wouldn’t settle. His words kept replaying in my head, over and over again.“I don’t believe you.”My jaw tightened as I pushed forward, my hands clenching
Allene With her help, I finally had something to follow, something that did not feel like guessing anymore. To find out what was going on exactly, I waited until the next time Mia left the rogue territory, and when she did, I followed her carefully, keeping enough distance so she would not sense me, but close enough that I would not lose her. Every step I took was controlled, because if she noticed me, everything would be ruined.She moved like she knew exactly where she was going.No hesitation.No confusion.Just straight purpose.That made my chest tighten slightly as I continued following her. We moved farther away from the rogue territory than I expected, and by the time she finally stopped, I was alert, already watching carefully.A motel.My brows pulled together slightly as I stayed hidden, my eyes fixed on her. She walked in without hesitation.I waited a moment before moving closer, staying out of sight as I positioned myself where I could see without being seen. My heart
AlleneI went back to my chambers, my head still buzzing, my heart still unsettled. I didn’t know what I was feeling anymore. When I pushed the door open, I froze.Draven was already there.Sitting on the edge of the bed, his elbows resting on his knees, his gaze fixed on the floor like he’d been
Draven She looked so beautiful.Her laughter still lingered from the stupid game, her eyes bright, her cheeks warm from smiling too much.I watched her more than the lanterns.The lights reflected in her eyes, softening her features, making her look unreal, like she didn’t quite belong to this wor
AlleneDraven pulled away.He didn’t say anything. He didn’t look back. He just turned and left, his footsteps fading as if nothing had happened. As if I hadn’t felt my heart crack open at that moment.I stood there long after he was gone.The ache settled deep in my chest, heavy and unrelenting. I
Allene I headed back to the pack, gisting and laughing with the racers, replaying Leonard’s shocked face over and over again. The way his mouth opened and closed like he wanted to say something but couldn’t. It felt good. Way too good.By the time I got to my chambers, I was still smiling.Draven
