Alex had no qualm about it. He liked the darkness. It was a welcome change. Additionally, it helped keep them safe from the prying eyes.
He had been impressed for most of the nights.watching Lila play around with the security system gave him a glimpse of what had happened not long ago.
That day at Anaya's home when his mission was ruined. He now understood it better.
He was dealing with an experienced hacker. One of a kind. She was only eighteen too. He couldnt not be impressed.
As they walked through the doors to the lab, he silently followed, retracing each step she took. Her bandana was still in place hiding her face from his probing gaze. The hoody was still upto, giving him little to admire.
