Kelevra was the one grinning this time. “Curious about him, are you? I don’t blame you. With the way he acts, it would make sense if he was like us. Alas, unlike you and me, the guy was actually bred to be a monster.”
“We aren’t monsters.”
“Right,” Kel snapped his fingers, “We’re Devils.”
Sila tipped his head, trying to sense if this were a trap. “And I’m included in that now?”
“Void is the one who called you out on it first,” he told him.
It couldn’t have been right away. If Baikal had, he would have done everything in his power to separate Sila from Rabbit. He must have realized Sila’s true nature later on, once he was already secure in his relationship with the musician.
“Interesting,” Sila said.
“I thought so too. But you didn’t come here to make chitchat with me.”
“I don’t really like you,” Sila confirmed, “So no. I did not.”
“I’m going to have to ask Rin how he keeps you in check. I get the feeling it’ll come in handy.”
“Ask,” he dared. “It’ll only piss him off.”
Kelevra tutted and dropped his hands back on the desk, leaning on them. “Everything pisses him off.”
“True.”
“It’s cute.”
He didn’t come here to talk about how the Imperial Prince was obsessed with his brother either.
“You owe me a favor,” Sila reminded, and a look passed between them, letting him know he didn’t need to spell out the details of when that had transpired. “I’m calling it in.”
“All right.”
“I need a pair of Insight glasses,” he said. “They need to be jailbroken.”
“That’s incredibly illegal.” Kelevra lifted his multi-slate and started typing out a message to someone. “I like it.” Not a minute later, his device dinged. “You’re in luck. Madden has a pair. He’ll meet you in the south parking lot in twenty.”
“I’ll be there.”
Kelevra got to his feet and adjusted his clothing. “If that’s all?” He’d posed it as a question, but he didn’t wait for Sila’s reply, exiting the room as quickly as he’d come.
Perhaps he wasn’t taking Nano Tech 101 after all.
Chapter 18:
Was he looking at him?
Bay turned from the projection screen and sent a subtle glance over toward the back where Sila Varun was seated with his friends.
Only, it wasn’t Sila at all, at least, nothisSila.
After not hearing from him since he’d left Bay standing there alone in the middle of that dank alley after experiencing the most intense orgasm of his life, his stalker had gone quiet. Bay had actually been looking forward to class two days ago, because at least then he’d get to see him.
Wrong.
He’d sent his brother in his place.
Bay had been watching the way other people interacted with him and it’d become painfully clear that Sila had been right. He hadn’t made it up when he’d said the twins made it a habit of switching and no one was the wiser. Not a single person seemed to notice that there was a replica in the usual Sila’s place. Even his friends laughed and joked with him the same as always.
