Kai stood still, his stance grounded, eyes locked anywhere but on hers.
He knew better now.
No more eye contact.
Across from him, Seraphina stood poised and graceful, like she was modelling for a fashion magazine instead of standing in a grimy back alley, fresh off kidnapping someone.
"What do you want?" he asked coldly, voice low but firm. "Where the hell were you taking me?"
His fists clenched at his sides, jaw tense.
'Knew it. Too hot to be harmless. Women like that don't show up without an agenda,' Kai thought bitterly. 'Could've been a normal night. But no, hot girl walks in, stares into my soul, and now I'm fighting for my life in an alley. Classic.'
Seraphina let out a light, mocking laugh. Elegant, but soaked in arrogance.
"You're skilled," she said, brushing a strand of platinum hair behind her ear. "But I'd expect no less from The Hunter."
'Wait. Hold the hell up - The Hunter?'
