I kept my face blank. “I don’t know what you mean.”
Navielle laughed softly and stepped inside, closing the door. “Don’t pretend. I saw you standing there.”
I looked at her without emotion.
“You should have stayed longer,” she went on, her smile growing. “You might have learned something.”
I shrugged lightly. “Alright. Are you done? I think Razen is waiting for you. I want to rest.”
That was not the reaction she wanted. Her smile faltered for a moment before she hid it again.
“I will go finish what we started. You are welcome to watch,” she said before walking out.
I picked up my crystal communicator and sent Keegan a message.
[Phase one is done. Get ready.]
He replied with a heart symbol.

Razen stayed close to me for the next two days. He barely left my side, which made it harder for me to continue my plans.
Maybe his wolf sensed something. Maybe he suspected I had seen him with Navielle, even though I acted like everything was normal.
At last, I grew tired of waiting. I sent Navielle a message.
[Looks like Razen is tired of you. He has not left my side. Keep lying to yourself. He is mine.]
I knew it would provoke her.
