One was the heir to Los Angeles‘ elite, another ruled the underground forces overseas, and the third was the head of Seattle’s most powerful family. The clash of their different energies, refined, sinister, and cold, filled the room.
Yet, the center of attention, Hazel, was leisurely enjoying the pasta Johnson had made for her, completely unfazed by the tension at the door.
Sebastian saw her eating, and a flicker of sadness passed through his deep blue eyes. She hadn’t opened the door when he knocked earlier. Had she done it on purpose? He wasn’t the naive young man he used to be, and the deliberate distance she had been putting between them only fueled his obsession with understanding why she had left all those years ago.
He had just returned to Los Angeles and had asked his mother about it.
But Alanna stuck to the same story.
According to her, Hazel had simply wanted to return to the mainland, but Sebastian didn’t buy it. Their three years together had been harmonious. They had been the best of friends!
His sharp eyes landed on the bottle of healing liquor Gabriel was holding. His mind quickly pieced things together.
“Haze, are you injured?” he asked, stepping forward.
Johnson blocked him.“Mr. Stevens, it’s not appropriate for you to enter a woman’s room so late.”
“Sorry,” Sebastian paused in his tracks.
His gaze remained locked on Hazel inside the room, but all the words he wanted to say got stuck
in his chest.
Johnson, aware of Hazel’s preferences, had made the exact amount of pasta she liked!
After finishing the last bit of soup, Hazel felt warmth spread through her stomach, and drowsiness began to take over. She stood, carrying the bowl to the door.
She handed it to Johnson and softly reminded him, “Get some rest.”
Johnson wanted to stay and protect her but, noticing her expression, he obediently returned to the room next door.
He left the door ajar in case she needed anything.
That left just Gabriel and Sebastian at the door. Hazel looked at them as if they were strangers. Her voice was cold.“Do you need something?”
