Rome, Italy.
Carlos's pov:
I sat down, locking eyes with Alliana, as the tension in the room grew thick. Kai looked at me, waiting for a response, but I held off, knowing Alliana had more to say. She crossed her arms, her dark brown eyes never leaving mine. The silence stretched on until Kai finally broke it, clearing his throat. "Now that Alliana's here, what do you have to say?" he asked. Alliana immediately fired back, "Yeah, why did you ask these jackasses to abduct me?"
