Chapter 224 Training Room

As soon as the doors closed behind Lexi and she was left in the relative darkness of

the training room, she let out a breath that she hadn’t known she had been holding.

She was still furious about the way some of the Elders thought about her and the

other hybrids within the city, but she was positive that not all of them felt the same

way.

Even if it was only a small percentage of Elders that eventually sided with her and

Ann, that was all that mattered. Even one person could make a huge difference if they

worked hard and acted intelligently.

and it irritated her when men hovered around her, unsure of what to do with

themselves.

She liked the fire of their heated banter, it got her riled up in all of the best ways and

she didn’t want to be stuck with an image in her head of a submissive Allen…that

would just ruin the whole thing for her.
