~LEXA WYETT~
“Avoiding him”
In the dimly lit hallway, the atmosphere crackled with an icy tension. Lexa stood rooted to the spot stunned by Alexander’s cold interrogation.
His voice, once warm and inviting, now dripped with condescension and authority.
“That's a huge accusation, sir,” Lexa protested, her voice trembling slightly. “Why would I avoid you?”
Alexander strode closer, his piercing gaze scanning her face relentlessly. “Is my presence going to be a problem, Miss Wyett? Are you going to let your feelings cloud your thinking and make you start ignoring me? Giving me the cold shoulders?”
Lexa's heart sank, she hadn't expected this cold response. His words were like daggers, stabbing her in the most vulnerable place.
I swallowed hard, trying to find my voice.
