Lucian called out to me, his voice low and gentle. "Isla?"I was still in a daze, lost in my thoughts about Adrian and the situation with Darius. When Lucian touched my arm, I flinched, my heart racing."What?" I asked, looking up at him with a mixture of confusion and concern.Ryder and Elias had already left, and it was just Lucian and Jace standing with me. Lucian's eyes were filled with worry as he looked at me."Are you okay?" he asked, his voice soft.I nodded, trying to shake off the feeling of unease. "Yeah, I'm fine," I replied.Lucian's expression was skeptical, but he didn't push the issue. Instead, he suggested, "You should move into my dorm room."I raised an eyebrow, surprised by the suggestion. "Why?" I asked.Lucian's reasoning was practical. "This dorm has been burnt down, and it's not safe for you to stay here. It's better if you stay in my dorm room, where I can keep an eye on you."I hesitated, unsure of what to do. Staying in Lucian's dorm room would mean being cl

The next day, I woke up feeling a mix of emotions. As I lay in bed, the warm sunlight streamed through the window, casting a gentle glow on my face. The scent of freshly cooked food wafted through the air, mingling with the sweet aroma of blooming flowers. The fresh air filled my lungs, invigorating my senses.But despite the peaceful atmosphere, my body ached in various places. My muscles felt sore, and my head throbbed with a dull headache. I winced as I sat up, rubbing my temples in an attempt to alleviate the discomfort.I slowly swung my legs over the side of the bed, testing my body's response. Every movement seemed to send a ripple of pain through my muscles. I gritted my teeth, determined to push through the discomfort.As I stood up, a wave of dizziness washed over me, forcing me to grab onto the bedframe for support. I took a few deep breaths, waiting for the sensation to pass. It was clear that I had gone through a lot the previous day, and my body was still recovering.As

As I continued eating, Lucian's eyes never left mine, his gaze lingering on my lips, my cheeks, and my hair. I felt like I was basking in the warmth of his adoration, and it made me feel alive."You're really enjoying staring at me, aren't you?" I asked, trying to sound casual despite the butterflies in my stomach.Lucian's smile grew wider, and he leaned back in his chair, his eyes still fixed on me. "I'm enjoying watching you enjoy your food," he said, his voice low and husky. "But I have to admit, I'm also enjoying the way you smile when you eat. It's incredibly captivating."I felt my cheeks heat up at his words, and I looked down, trying to hide my blush. But Lucian was having none of it. He reached out and gently lifted my chin, his fingers brushing against my skin."Don't hide your smile from me, Elara," he said, his voice full of affection. "I want to see it every day, every hour, every minute."I looked up at him, my heart racing with excitement. I felt like I was melting und

Eya's eyes locked onto mine, her gaze piercing. "You're good?" she asked, her voice laced with concern. I forced a smile, trying to pretend that everything was fine. "Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" I replied, trying to sound casual. But inside, I was a mess. I didn't trust Eya anymore, not after everything that had happened. I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt, but my instincts were screaming at me to be cautious. Ruby seemed to sense the tension between us, her eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at Eya and then me. "Did I miss anything?" she asked, her voice light, trying to break the awkwardness. Eya laughed, her eyes glinting with amusement. "No, what could have happened that you'd miss?" she said, her tone dripping with sarcasm. I felt a pang of annoyance at her tone, but Ruby just smiled, her eyes sparkling with humor. "You never know, maybe something epic," she said, playing along. But I knew that Eya's words were laced with meaning, and I couldn't shake off t

I waved goodbye to Ruby, feeling a mix of emotions as I watched her walk away. As I turned to leave, I couldn't shake off the feeling of discomfort that lingered within me. Ruby knew about the kiss between Lucian and me, and it felt like my private moment had been exposed.I thought to myself, "No one saw us," but somehow Ruby had found out. It made me wonder who else might know, and the thought sent a shiver down my spine.As I walked back to the delta pack quarters, I couldn't help but replay the kiss in my mind. It was a moment of pure passion, and I had thought it was just between Lucian and me. But now, it seemed like everyone knew.I felt a bit self-conscious, thinking about how Ruby had reacted. She was excited and happy for me, but I couldn't help but feel like I was being pulled out of my comfort zone.I quickened my pace, wanting to get back to my class and process my thoughts. As I walked, I couldn't help but think about Lucian and how he would react to Ruby knowing about t
