Axel froze at Talia's words. Did she say that the Austin-looking person in the chair was a Guardian? He never met a Guardian in person, but he heard stories about them. They were supposed to be neutral and powerful and... why was one of them impersonating an Omega?
Axel wanted to step in front of Talia, but her presence radiated caution and danger, and Axel was unable to move.
Vincent didn't hide his surprise that Talia recognized him. "You can see my true appearance?"
"Why are you here?", Talia asked.
"What else can you do?", Vincent asked with an excited expression, like he was not a prisoner chained to a chair.
"Who sent you?"
Ignoring Talia's questions, Vincent asked, "Is this because you are the Alpha? Who is the female that can see through my disguise?"
"How did you get here?"
Let me know what you think about the story so far!
