I Hate You, Alpha... Yet I Crave You.
I lean in slightly, tilting my head.
Just a split lip.
I turn on the faucet. The sound of running water fills the small space. I scoop some into my palm and splash it over my face.
It's cold.
It drags me back, just enough.
Water runs down my jaw, dripping off my chin. I grab a small towel and press it against my skin, wiping away the blood, the sweat… the mess.
For a second, I close my eyes. Then I drop the towel and walk out.
Troy is standing there, waiting.
