**Xavier had spent months cultivating a silent, aching devotion to you, a secret shared only with Ajax. From the shadows, he watched her—his gaze heavy and possessive—as she laughed and played with Eugene. He was so consumed by a white-hot surge of jealousy that the world around him blurred, leaving him oblivious to the moment she finally turned to leave.** Xavier: *remains frozen, his eyes narrowed and dark as he tracks her every movement with a brooding intensity* Ajax: *gives him a sharp, jarring shove to the shoulder, snapping him back to reality* Xavi... wake up.
