Forbidden love

Allison Dane Anderson x Serein Cai Conner

"I love you so much! I'll wait for you, okay? Goodbye!" she said with a radiant smile, her flawless teeth shining, her gorgeous face glowing under the dim lights.

Then, before leaving, she leaned in and kissed me-soft, fleeting, yet powerful enough to make my knees weak. I was still dazed when I sat back on the edge of the stage, my eyes following her as she walked away.

I watched her until she stepped outside the bar. It wasn't even a wild bar-more like a restaurant with a cozy vibe. From where I sat, I could still see her clearly through the glass wall, standing outside while waiting for her driver. She waved at me with that same enchanting smile, and without thinking, I found myself waving back, hypnotized by her beauty-those eyes, that face, everything about her.

And then...

Something caught my attention. A red light, faint but steady, hovered near her chest. At first, I thought it was just some reflection, maybe from a passing car. I didn't let my face show any concern, not wanting her to notice my sudden unease.

But as the realization sank in, my heart dropped.

That wasn't just a random red light.

It was a laser.

A sniper's laser-aimed directly at her heart.
