Chapter 0210


    Dn POV.


    He was so close to me, I could feel the heating from his own body slowly increasing my own.


    Lewis grinned while I simply nced at his mouth. God, our lips were centimeters away from each


    other our breaths intertwined, causing a whole new form of heat to rise inside me. "You smell


    different today..." I heard him mumble slightly as he leaned even closer which caused my eyes to


    widen a fraction. "You should have told me." He spoke before finally backing away from my body.


    His once cheeky, expression changed drastically as hurt took over his features. His eyebrows


    scrunched ever so slightly before a sympathetic smile became directed at me.


    "Happy Birthday, Dn!" My face dropped quickly at his words. I hadn''t told anyone when my


    birthday was, so I genuinely had no idea how he knew it was actually today.

    "How do you know that it is today?" I couldn''t help but question him as I slightly turned my head


    away. There was no way that was just an estimated guess.


    "Your scent is different. Everyone always smells different on their birthday, it''s like your body subtly


    shows the day you were born into the world. Anyway, I always notice straight away if anything is


    different with you. Trust me." He smiled slightly before frowning once again. "How are you feeling


    today?"


    I had no idea how I was feeling. My emotions were so up the wall it was bing increasingly


    difficult to pinpoint just one. It was my birthday, I should have been at home, opening my homemade


    cards, and enjoying the chaos and giggles of my mom and Freddie as we baked a teful of


    pancakes, right before seeing what gifts my family had managed to get for me. Instead of all that, I


    was miles from home, surrounded by people who I barely knew, and trying to fight for some


    semnce of a peaceful life. It wasn''t the birthday I had in mind, but it was the birthday I got. I had


    to make the most out of my day.


    "I''m just trying to keep my mind focused." I shrugged my shoulders in an attempt to show


    nonchnce, when in reality my mind and my body were hyper aware of everything. "Not that I''m


    actually allowed to do that." I rolled my eyes in frustration at what V was like. Actually thinking about


    it, maybe I just needed another perspective. I wonder what Lewis''s opinion on things were.


    "What do you mean, you''re not allowed to do that? Whose stopping you?" Had he really no clue


    about what was going on? Could he not see that V was too soft, that she was too blind to the rest of


    the world to worry about anything.


    "Who do you think?" I gave him a t look as he began to process who it could be. Sometimes


    Lewis really could be clueless.


    "That''s just V. Even I have been telling her for weeks that she needs to start pushing for things in


    the pack. At the moment she''s just focused on increasing our numbers." I just sighed. I understood


    that side of it, but she was justcent, it wasn''t about boosting the number of bodies the


    rebellion had, no, for V it was survival that she craved more than justice.


    "Well, despite what her end goal is, the truth of the matter is that we need to do something soon.


    Did you know that 16 districts have burnt down their punishment stages?" I shook my head still


    trying toe to terms with what I had started. I really did need to give something back to the


    people who were willing to support me and my ideals. I was done cowering behind anyone I could.


    "Actually it''s 17 now. And that''s just in America." He smiled slightly when my eyes widened at his


    statement. I almost forgot about the other countries trying to put an end to human persecution.
