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.
She really didn't want to go back to Allen in this mood, he would only fuss over her 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.
