Villain Ch 1803. Don't Panic
Azura's heart was beating so loud, she swore the neighbors could hear it through the walls.
She sat at the edge of her bed, phone still glowing in her hand, Allen's last message staring back at her like a flare she couldn't look away from.
Allen: Can I come to your apartment?
She'd said no at first. Said she'd go to him. Safer that way. More polite. Less—
…dangerous.
But he'd texted back with a calm confidence that completely disarmed her.
Allen: Police already caught Sophia. It's safe now. I want to see you.
So she said yes.
She told herself it wasn't a big deal. It was just Allen. He was her cousin. Her crush. Her not-so-secret emotional disaster.
But this wasn't before.
This was after.
After the stalker. After the kiss. After Allen spent the night at his girlfriend's house.
And now?
Now he was coming here. To her apartment.
And she had no idea what to expect.
