"Are you not busy?" Lesley asked Kieran, who had been tailing her.

She rejected his offer of assistance earlier after Iston discharged her. He said he wanted to accompany her to her room until she got there safely. Although he looked sincerely worried for her, she did not need it.

"I am busy," he answered her.

"In that case, stop following me. Go back to your work."

"I'm busy with you," he clarified.

Her lips formed a thin line. "You can leave me. I don't want to waste your time. I can go back to my room alone," she said coldly.

But instead of saying goodbye and leaving, Kieran smiled at her.

"I'm on my break. Don't worry about my job. You're more important than anything else right now."

Lesley sighed defeatedly, secretly rolling her eyes. If she were the same girl as before, she would have blushed at those words.

"Fine," she gave in.

What else could she do? He is too stubborn. And she doesn't see anything wrong with his intentions.

They walked silently together to her room. She was a

    After eating, she walked to the bathroom to take a shower. She took off all her clothes and stood in front of the round mirror.Her face crumpled in annoyance as she examined herself. She looks like a walking skeleton. She has a couple of pimples and dark circles under her eyes too. This is the result of what Gracy did to her. She became too depressed and hopeless to care for herself.She took a deep breath to calm herself. Karma will come to get those girls soon. She knows it. And she will be the one to serve it on a silver platter.After showering, she prepared to carry out the first step in her plans. She needs to test her power and find out its strength and limitations. To what extent can she control a mutant?Iston was the first person that came to her mind, that is if he would agree. But a better idea formed in her head when she saw Gracy's group the day she woke up from drowning.Lesley stood in the middle of her room while taking a couple of deep breaths. She closed her eyes

    "Side Effects" "Hey, I've been waiting for you." Lesley was surprised by Kieran's sudden appearance in front of her, stopping her in her tracks. She was so lost in her thoughts she did not notice him immediately. "I got your food here. Where did you go?" he asked worriedly. He seemed to have been waiting in front of her room for a while. She glanced blankly at the tray of food he was holding. It was covered, so she did not know what meal he had prepared this time. But for sure, it would be another fancy cooking. She sighed. What does she care? She wasn't in a good mood. She had no appetite and was unhappy that Kieran had cooked and brought it to her. "Thank you," she said lazily. She opened the door, quickly took the food tray from Kieran's hand, and entered the room, slamming the door to his face. She dropped the tray on the table and sat down. She closed her eyes tightly and frowned as she remembered this afternoon's events. She used her power to control mutants for the fi

    Catharina's promised training to Lesley will begin with only four days left. Lesley was given a week to prepare. Even if it's not that long of a time, a few days' grace period is enough to improve the condition of her body and mind.She also went to the barber the day before. She feels fresh and better with her new and short haircut.The hairstyle was a grown-out pixie which suited her very well. She had never cut her hair this short, so she was surprised and pleased when it suited her so well. In addition, it feels very light on the head and more manageable. It will save her time fixing it. Also, long hair can be a hindrance to her mission and training."Good Morning!" Lesley greeted Iston enthusiastically, who was busy arranging the hideout's medical records on his desk.After breakfast, she hurriedly went to the clinic to check on Gracy and her friends. Until now, her conscience is still haunting her for what she did to the three. She wants to talk to them and conclude the dispute

    Lesley waited a few minutes for Avery to calm down before she spoke again. The woman's eyes were overflowing with tears after releasing all the grievances she had for her; she could not help but feel sorry."Do you know what kind of life I had before I met Kieran?" she suddenly asked.Avery looked at her for a second before rolling her eyes."I don't know. Why should I care?" the woman answered gruffly.Lesley didn't pay any attention to Avery's attitude and way of answering. She has a lot of patience now, especially after understanding why Avery was hostile toward her. She realized nothing good would happen if both of them remained angry with each other. They are on the same side, and Victor and MNA are the enemies, not each other.She took a deep breath before speaking again."Since I was a child, I have not felt the love of a real parent. I am always thirsty for my mother's attention," she said.Avery didn't move or face her, but she knew she was listening, so she continued."I am

    'Should I try again today?'Kieran can't decide what to do with the spaghetti meatballs he cooked himself. It was for Lesley, but she might not be in her room again. Every time he delivered food, she was always outside, and he could never seem to catch her present there.He tried to go at a different time, but he failed. He does not know how Lesley does it, but one thing is for sure. She is avoiding him successfully as if she knows when he will come.He is not a great cook, but he knows the basics. Living alone in the Philippines while his parents are in Luxembourg teaches him how to manage the kitchen independently. His nana, Kali, is there for him, but he is out most of the time partying. So Kali stopped cooking for him. The few times he is at home, he cooks with Kali's guidance, saying that she would not always be there for him, so at least he should know how to take care of himself. Besides, Lesley always cooked for him when he was still in MNA. He wants to pay her back by doing

    The air-conditioning in the room was cold enough, but a drop of sweat still managed to escape Kieran's forehead. Since he woke up from a wet dream a few hours ago, his body still felt hot. He knew he had to release this heat. But he doesn't seem to have the energy for anything right now. He is too lazy to even get up.Kieran has been awake for a while now. But he hasn't gotten up yet. He rested his head in his hands as he stared blankly at the ceiling, recalling his happy memories with Lesley and intimate moments.He kept thinking about the sexy dream he had last night. He misses her in his arms, her lips on his, her perky breasts, and her hot wetness. He recalled how sweet those tasted, especially the heaven between her legs. But most of all, he yearns for her beautiful eyes that always look at him passionately, and her soft voice muttering words of love for him. Oh, how he longed for that.If he only knew that they would be like this, he would have shown more of how much he loves he

    The sun had not risen yet, but Lesley was already busy helping Avery inspect the food rations that arrived at the hideout every two days. She volunteered to help because she wanted to know something that would help in her plan."Are you only assigned to food?" she asked as Avery busied herself with several pages of paper containing lists of the rations they had received."Yep," her friend answered without looking at her."What about other things? Like guns and medicines?""We have other people for that. I was only assigned to food rations because eighty percent of it comes from our family.""I see..." she trailed. "How about the gadgets? Where do you get the gadgets?"Avery frowned and looked up at her."Gadgets? What do you mean?""You have a burner phone, don't you? I see some mutants using that.""Do you want one?"She nodded, stepping closer. "Yes! How can I get one?""Is there someone outside you want to call?" Avery asked suspiciously."No one," she answered quickly with a broad

    Lesley took her deepest breath and then looked ahead. She decided to go to the training grounds to warm up. Rio might be there now to start their new training."Lesley!"She scrambled to her feet when she heard Kieran's voice calling out to her."Lesley, please wait!"She ignored him until he finally caught up to her."I swear I didn't mean to eavesdrop," he said.She took a deep breath and slowly faced him."Don't worry about it. It doesn't matter," she coldly responded.Kieran just smiled, then he held out a clean towel familiar to her. "I wanted to give this back to you."She frowned. "Is it mine?""Yes. It fell on the training grounds the last time we talked there. I washed it, so it's clean."She stared at his eyes for a few seconds, and then she averted her gaze immediately as if burned by something she saw in them."Thank you," she said, almost choking on the word."You're welcome," he answered sweetly.Lesley stared at Kieran again, which seemed strange. He appeared oddly dif

    Lesley can hear her heart beating loudly inside her chest. Her palms clenched in nervousness as they stared into each other's eyes."I… I got very angry with you, and I was bitter… But I still love you..."She saw his face getting redder. She could feel herself slowly being swallowed by his gaze that seemed to penetrate deep inside her."How about the things you said before I left?" he asked in his low and deep voice. "Do you want me?"She slightly raised his eyebrows at this and pursed her lips."What do you mean?" she asked nervously.The atmosphere is getting hotter. She knew what he was talking about. But it was too embarrassing to admit now without the alcohol in her system."You remember it, right? Everything you said... and what we almost did here in your room," He brought his face closer to hers. "Lesley, tell me honestly... Do you want me inside you?"Lesley can hear the loud beating inside her chest as if she will have a heart attack at any moment. Only one person has the ab

    "Why are we here on my bed? There's a table," Lesley calmly asked Kieran, who was comfortably eating on top of her bed, positioning himself in the middle while she was at the end as if she was the guest and he owned the space."Because eating is better when done in bed," he answered with a meaningful smile.Lesley understood the double meaning in his statement. She stared at his face flatly, initially wanting to refute him, but she decided just to ignore him. "Besides, this is where we used to eat. It's more comfortable. I promise I won't make a mess," Kieran added.She sighed. She agreed to talk to him tonight about their relationship, especially those things she said and acted when she was drunk.But is this the right decision, biting Kieran’s bait and letting him into her room?She stared at the tray of food resting on her lap for a few seconds and then at Kieran's food. She frowned, shifting her gaze to Kieran’s face."Anything wrong? Don't you like it?" he asked."I'm just wonder

    Lesley stared intently at him for a few seconds before sighing heavily. "Fine," she finally agreed, walking to a table nearby. And then she started to put her things away. "Instead of moving on with each other, I messed with your mind again," she murmured, then looked straight at him. "This is my fault. I'm sorry.""No. It's not your fault!" He exclaimed, shaking his head. "It was me. I did this. If I hadn't asked you for that one last kiss, last night wouldn't have happened."She paused, frowning at him. "What are you implying?""I made you feel something in that kiss, and you can't forget me," he answered so casually.Lesley scoffed, shaking her head. "I don't even know what to say. Can you stop assuming?"He walked to her, slightly bending down to put his mouth closer to her ears. "You miss me… And you want me…."Lesley stepped back and glared at him. If only those stares could cut him, he would be in pieces."I'm being serious," he immediately said while holding back a grin. "But

    Lesley groaned painfully from the sudden throbbing in her head as soon as she woke up, the effect of the few glasses of alcohol she drank last night. She doesn't feel like getting up with how heavy her body feels until something suddenly occurs to her. She sprang up, sharply inhaling while covering her mouth with both hands. Her eyes widened in disbelief, recalling the events of last night."No... No, no, no!"She grabbed her hair and shook her head, wishing it was a dream.'What have I done?!'She closed her eyes tightly, biting her lips. She bent until her forehead touched her knees, burying her face in shame. If only the ground would swallow her right now. How will she deal with Kieran now? She doesn't even know if she still has a face to show him after her actions last night. "Lesley, are you awake?"Her breathing hitched when she heard the voice of the last man she wanted to see today. Her face lost its complexion as she looked towards the door.She remembered that Kieran pro

    "What… What do you mean?" Kieran asked, staring intently at her face. "You're asking me why it has to be the last kiss? Do you... Do you want more?"Lesley's heart was beating so fast that she could hear its deafening pounding.She could not take her gaze off Kieran's eyes, which were also fixed on her, even though she felt like she was melting to the ground.Her expression remained brave and confident even though her thoughts were getting tangled in her brain.'What are you doing, Lesley?!' she scolded herself in her mind.She can already see that she will regret this in the morning. But she can't do anything but continue what she started. And she couldn't stop herself either, as if she had lost control."What's wrong with that?" she continued.There flared a strange sparkle in Kieran's eyes. He was speechless for a couple of seconds before he could respond to her."D-Do you... Do you mean it? Seriously—"He suddenly paused when he realized something. He blew violently and shook his

    "Can I kiss you one last time?"Lesley caught her breath at Kieran’s sudden request. Her heart rate doubled and she froze in place."Please?" he pleaded.She gulped as she couldn't take her gaze off his pitiful expression, especially his eyes that had turned gray.She slightly pressed her lips for a split second while trying her best to control the crazy beating of her heart.How can she say no to him with that kind of expression on his face? He looks pitiful, but at the same time, irresistibly adorable."Okay..." she answered absent-mindedly.Kieran wasted no time. He let go of her hand and stepped closer so that their bodies were almost touching. Then he cupped both of her cheeks gently while staring intently at her face as if he had been looking forward to this opportunity for a very long time.She held tightly to the hem of his black t-shirt and then closed her eyes as he slowly brought their faces closer.A second later, she felt his soft lips gently touching hers, and her heart
