Vincent’s POV

The door slammed behind her.

Zaara. Gone.

With him.

With fucking Theo.

And something in me...something I didn’t even know I had left, shattered.

My fists clenched at my sides.

Nomi was still grinding on me, still moaning, still reaching for more.

But I didn’t move.

Not anymore.

My heart was racing, my head screaming.

That high-pitched sound? It turned into a full-blown siren.

"She chose him," Nomi whispered behind me. "Let her."

I didn’t answer.

Because every second that passed, I saw red.

Memory or not, heart or not... something inside me hated the way she looked at him.

The way she smiled. The way she smirked. Like I didn’t matter anymore. Like I was already dead to her.

Like I was nothing.

"You okay?" Nomi asked.

I finally turned.

"I’m not sure what I am," I said coldly. "But I’m about to remind her."

Nomi’s brows lifted, but she didn’t stop me.

I stepped off the dance floor.

The lounge swirled around me in shadows ...music thumping, bodies writhing, moans rising. But I didn’t see any of it.

All I saw was Room Eight.

The room Zaara disappeared into.

And the door I was about to break down.

I reached the door. My hand closed into a fist.

But before I could strike it.... Nomi’s hand caught my wrist.

"Vincent," she whispered. "Don’t."

I stared at her, jaw clenched.

"She’s playing you. You think barging in there’s gonna change anything? You’re not thinking straight."

"I’m not thinking at all," I snapped.

"Exactly," she said, stepping in front of me. "So don’t do something dumb. Do something better."

I blinked.

Her fingers slid up my chest.

She leaned in close, breathing softly against my lips.

"Make her hear you... from the other side."

I hesitated. Just for a second.

Then I let her pull me.

We entered the room right next door.

Room Seven.

The second the door shut behind us, the sounds outside dulled...except for the one thing we weren’t supposed to hear.

Moaning.

Not ours.

Hers.

Probably Zaara’s.

The walls were thin....intentionally, maybe.. And the sounds coming through them? Soft gasps. A gasp. A giggle. A creak of the bedframe. Then a sharp moan that made my knuckles tighten.

Nomi heard it too. Her lips twitched into a devilish smile.

"She’s putting on a show," she whispered. "Want to give her one back?"

I stepped toward Nomi. Pressed her against the door.

She gasped, not from surprise...but satisfaction.

My hand slid around her throat. Just enough to feel her pulse.

And through the wall, another muffled moan.

This time, lower.

Probably Theo’s.

Nomi smirked again. "Let’s make it louder in here."

I didn’t even blink.

My mouth crashed onto hers.

We didn’t speak. Just touched. Grabbed.

Clothes peeled off like they were too hot to keep on. Her lingerie slid to the floor in a whisper. My shorts hit the tiles. Her fingers wrapped around me again, like she owned me...and maybe she did. For the moment.

I turned her around, pushing her onto the bed as the moans from next door continued...

Nomi moaned, biting her lip.

She went on her knees, her fingers dug into my thighs. Her breath was hot. Wet sounds filled the space between us. I leaned back on the velvet couch, with my eyes half opened.

"Louder, Vincent," she whispered. "Make her hear you lose control."

And this time, she moaned so loud it rattled the bed.

Her head bobbed slowly, it was warm, slimy. My hands were in her hair, not guiding her....just holding on like I might lose grip on everything else.

But something inside me was off.

Not guilt.

Just...

That sound again. That pitch. That frequency clawing at the back of my skull like a warning siren.

And then....

BANG.

The door slammed open so hard the walls shook.

"What the fuck?!" Nomi gasped, jerking her head up, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.

Zaara stood in the doorway.

Her eyes were burning. Her chest were heaving. Her hands curled into fists at her sides like she’d been debating punching through the wall before deciding the door would suffer instead.

"Nomi, what the hell do you think you’re doing?!"

Nomi stood up. "Excuse you....what the hell is your problem?"

Zaara didn’t answer. Her eyes were locked on me.

And I...

I didn’t flinch.

Didn’t apologize.

Didn’t speak.

I just sat there...hard, shirtless, staring straight back at her.

"You said you didn’t care," she yelled at me. "You said nothing mattered."

"It doesn’t," I said. "I still don’t care."

Her jaw tightened.

"Then why the fuck did you follow me with your eyes all night?"

Nomi rolled her eyes. "Oh my god. Seriously? Jealous much?"

Zaara turned to her so fast, Nomi actually stepped back.

"Stay out of it," Zaara said.

And then...before anyone could blink, she walked straight over to me.

"Get dressed, Vincent," she said. "We’re done playing pretend."

I didn’t move.

I just tilted my head.

And smiled.

"Pretend what?" I murmured. "That you don’t want the same thing?"

Her breath caught.

The aphrodisiac in our systems was starting to peak. I could feel it. Like desire and madness were blurring.

Nomi stepped between us.

"You really think you can just come in here and...."

Zaara shoved her back.

Hard.

"I’m not talking to you."

Nomi hissed. "Bitch."

Zaara didn’t flinch. She just leaned down, inches from my face.

"You saved me on that platform," she whispered. "And then you ran off and let her..." she motioned at Nomi "....touch you like you didn’t feel a damn thing. But I saw it. In your eyes. I know you felt something."

My lips twitched. "So what? You want to punish me for it?"

"No," she said.

Then... she placed her hands on my chest.

"I want to remind you who you are."

I froze.

I looked up. Nomi was staring. She was shocked. Probably a little hurt.

And then...she smirked.

"Oh, you two are so fucked up," she muttered. "Fine. You want crazy? Let’s make it crazy."

And she stepped back into the circle.
