I was lead by one of the guards towards the room where Titus was. The guard knocked on the door, and after a few minutes, I heard Beta Scott’s voice inside.

“Come in.”

The guard then opened the door for me. He gestured with his hand, allowing me to walk through the door.

I found Titus standing behind his desk, staring at the documents on top of his table. While Beta Scott was standing on the other side of the table.

Scott looked at me with emotions I couldn’t read.

“You can leave now,” Titus dismissed Scott with a cold voice.

I can feel the intense tension between them. It makes me wonder if this has something to do with Scott’s involvement in my escape plan three years ago. Did Titus find out that Scott convinced me to leave?

Beta Scott bowed his head before he turned to me and did the same. After that, he went ahead and left the room.

Titus remained silent for a long moment, his sharp gaze locked onto the papers in front of him. He didn’t look at me right away, but I could feel the weight of his presence pressing down on me, suffocating in its intensity.

The quiet stretched between us, thick with unspoken words. I stood still, refusing to fidget under his scrutiny, though my heart pounded against my ribs.

Finally, he lifted his head. His icy blue eyes met mine, burning with something unreadable.

“Sit down,” he ordered, his tone eerily calm.

I hesitated, the tension in the room thick enough to suffocate me. Titus‘ icy blue eyes never wavered from mine, his gaze sharp and unreadable.

“You and Beta Scott were talking about something serious? I can come back later,” I suggested, trying to sound casual even as my heart pounded in my chest.

Titus tilted his head slightly, regarding me with that infuriatingly unreadable expression. Then, his lips parted, and his voice came out smooth, almost bored.

“Did I ask for your opinion?”
