Chapter 143. That Sounds Like a Threat

KAMIL

June 15th, xxxy

The invitation is unexpected. Kamil is standing at Precious' door with a container of leftover stew—an excuse to check if the Alpha has been eating properly—when Precious opens it before he can knock.

"Come in," Precious says simply, stepping aside. No explanation for the unexpected gesture especially after how they've left things a few days ago. Typical of how they are now, they avoided the topic altogether, hiding behind professionalism.

But here Precious was, giving Kamil an opening. For the third time since they've broken up, Kamil enters the familiar space. But unlike the first where they had an audience or the second where he left almost as soon as he entered, Kamil ventures past the threshold.

He stands, documenting how he hates the changes. The proper dining table replacing where the bed had once being. What he hates most is how Precious felt forced to change, to try and erase traces of their shared intimacy.
