We picked up Jie-Yu fifteen minutes later, but they didn't let her sit in the backseat, even though it was sooo spacious, and she was forced to go sit in the front.
My plan had backfired and I was once again alone with the Alphas who want to each have half of me. No, I doubt it's half they want. They probably want the whole of me.
Ngh.
By the time we got home, the continuous silence, eye-to-eye electrifying war, and gripping of my hand had drained me to the point I was no different from a used paper floating in the air.
Should I be glad the war did not suddenly escalate to include me into something intimate and direct?
Yes! Yeah, I should be glad.
Once the car stopped, I was the first to leap out, rushing like a squirrel that needed to hide its acorns. Finally! I'm free! Free, I tell ya! My inner voice triumphed.
But unfortunately, I could not escape. It was all in my head.
