Xavier POV
The night had fallen thick and heavy over the pack house when Lucius finally agreed to come with me to my room. We tried to be as stealthy as we could noticing that there were a few maids in the corridor of our rooms. It didn't help that spending almost the whole day with Selene on top of that hill filled me with nostalgia and a lot of unresolved feelings.
When we got to my room, I pushed open the door and stood in one corner waiting for Lucius to slip in beside me. I felt him inhale sharply when he took in Selene's form nestled on my bed. Her features had smoothened into a mask of vulnerability, and innocence. I stood there transfixed, still torn between joy and sorrow.
