Chapter 83

Fallon’s POV

A shadow followed me as I wandered through the night streets of a city. It was one of those nights where Nathan had things to attend to and would not be aware of my absence, so I ventured into the nightlife of the Republic.

Everything was going well until I noticed the shadow following me from the last two cities till now.

I walked into a dark alley with the intention of luring my stalker into a trap and confronting him.

As quick as a silent wind, I sought refuge in a corner and waited for his arrival.

He came. Before he could figure out what was happening, I attacked without warning.

He was fast, moving from my sight in a blur.

I made a few more attempts to attack, but he easily avoided them.

Frustration kicked in, paving the way for anger. I rushed at the figure again. This time he didn’t run; instead, he pulled off his hood, bringing me to a standstill.

“I had to come see for myself,” he whispered softly.
