Chapter 27: Emiliano’s apocalypse plan ( Luther’s POV )
I don’t seem to get a grip on my own actions.
Tell any normal—sane—person that twelve hours ago, I had a friend die in my arms. Now I’m having vent-flirting banter with the walking brand logo of the pharmaceutical world.
And all while being held by a man who collects omega body parts like trophies—in jars—in his basement.
Taxidermy shouldn’t be hot, but maybe that was the gas talking. Or the adrenaline. Or just how drained I am—body, mind, soul.
The result was the same. I passed out.
Never faint. That was the rule. The only one I had left.
And I broke it.
I don’t even remember the moment my brain gave up. Just Killian’s voice—low, breathy, moaning my name like it meant something.
I miss him.
Maybe because he was the last thing I controlled before I became someone’s plaything.
I remember kissing him.
Sloppy. Messy. Raw.
