Chapter 28

AlexeiThe silence in the house isn’t peaceful. Not even close.It’s thick, tense, crawling under my skin like it’s trying to choke me out. She hasn’t said a word in what feels like forever.And it’s driving me insane.I’ve dealt with people’s emotions before. I’m not the guy who snaps or says the wrong thing when someone’s crying or yelling or shutting down. But Irene’s silence? It’s on a whole other level.Why the hell does she affect me like this? More than I want to admit. More than I can even begin to understand.When Stella rejected our bond, yeah, it stung. But just Irene's silence is maddening.It’s something deeper, messier.I’m two seconds away from calling out her name when I hear the soft creak of her door. She walks out, and just like that, there she is again. Calm. That kind of calm that doesn’t make sense. Her face is unreadable, and it only fuels the fire inside me.“You alright?” she asks, like everything’s normal.That question breaks whatever I’ve been holding in.“

AlexeiThere’s this weird kind of pull I can’t explain. Like something invisible hooks into my chest and just tugs me toward her. I don’t even notice I’m moving at first. It’s not on purpose. My body just… follows her. Follows the feeling.She’s right there, sitting close enough that I can see the way her lashes dip when she looks down and the small crease between her brows. Her lips are parted just a little. My gaze drops to her mouth for a second. I don’t mean to, but I can’t help it. It’s like something about her pulls every part of me in, and I swear I feel that pull under my skin, like a low hum that gets louder the closer I get.I lean in a little more. Not sure what I’m doing, not thinking, not planning, just caught up in this moment that feels way too big for how small the space between us is. I don’t touch her. I don’t speak.

AlexeiIrene has already moved the rug three times, changed the angle of the coffee table twice, and now she’s standing in the middle of the room with her hands on her hips, staring at the couch like it personally offended her.I lean against the wall, arms crossed, watching her.“You’re gonna set that couch on fire with your eyes.”She gives me a look. “I don’t like it there.”“Yeah, 'cause it’s halfway to the hallway,” I point out, stepping forward. “Let’s move it.”“Okay, but-”Before she can finish, I’m already gripping one end. “You get that side. Let’s put it near the window. Feels more... cozier.”She nods, flustered, brushing past me to grab the other end. Our hands bump briefly as she reaches for the corner, and she pulls back like she touched a live wire. Cute.“You okay there?” I ask, not bothering to hide my grin.“Yeah. Just... static,” she mutters.“Sure.”There’s already a scatter of books and picture frames on the floor and now Irene’s standing in front of the bookshel
