LUCIAN
I was prying dangerously close to stalker territory.
That’s what I’ve become after what I’ve come to term as the ‘disaster’ that was supposed to be a dinner with the elders of the council.
Ever since that damned dinner, I haven’t been able to stop watching her.
I tell myself it’s only because I’m curious, because Amaya fascinates me in ways I can’t explain, but that’s not the whole truth. I’m watching because something’s changed.
She moves differently now. She’s more careful, more guarded. I see it in the way she slips through the corridors without meeting anyone’s eyes, in the way she disappears the moment she finishes her tasks.
I had expected that Amaya would sulk a bit longer after that incident, but she surprised me. She’s not sulking, she’s planning something.
And Dari
