CHAPTER 283
~Valerie's POV~
I blinked when I heard what Kai said. He wanted me to know and ask?
I suppose not everyone felt as offended as Axel did. But still. My eyes drifted from Kai to Xade.
Xade shrugged his shoulder as he gave me that 'I don't know' kind of smile.
"Are you sure?" My attention drifted to Kai.
He tucked his hands in his trousers pocket, the look on his face now calm, as he stepped further in.
"I am. What do you want to know, Valerie? I want you to be able to trust me."
It felt like a big ticket, and yet here I sat, too scared to say it.
Xade sighed from where he was close to me. "V wants to know how we all got our blue eyes. Axel and I have already told her. And that just leaves Dristan and you."
I watched Kai closely, the way his shoulders tensed, how his breathing changed, how rigid his posture felt like he was reliving a horrifying moment.
I quickly decided to sit it down as it wasn't worth putting him through all these.
