Chapter 1196:
Freya hesitated.
Saying yes might mean Ellis showing up at her door in a few days, dragging her back to the base for more
training. But saying no would mean dealing with a walking, breathing third wheel.
“Just say what you're really thinking,” Ellis said, tossing the decision her way. He emphasized his next words with
pointed weight. “I'll go with whatever you say.” Freya pressed her lips together, still a little hesitant. “Would it be
too much to kick him out?”
“It wouldn't. You know exactly how he was raised.”
“Then...”
“Then it's settled!” Kendra jumped in, sealing the deal for her.
Freya let out a slow breath and gave Ellis a telling glance. It wasn’t that she didn’t want him there—but clearly,
Kendra didn’t.

message. “Freya, you will pay for this.” Freya stared blankly. How could someone be this petty?
Half an hour later, Kendra, seeing Ellis still loitering around, couldn’t help herself. “Aren’t you leaving?”
“Dad messaged me. Toldto stay and keep an eye on you two,” Ellis replied without a hint of shame. “He's
worried about losing you.” Both Freya and Kendra fell silent.
In the end, Ellis stayed.
That night, after dinner and srest, Ellis—fresh from a hot shower—strolled into Freya's room wearing a
bathrobe and climbed straight into her bed, not bothering with an invitation.
“Weren't you the one who said it was dangerous for us to sleep together?” Freya asked, her tone edged with
unease, her voice just shy of steady. “Why are you...”
Ellis turned onto his side, his gaze fixed on her. “I chere to settle the score.”
Freya didn’t reply.
“Tried to kickout?”
“No.”
“Avoided me?”
“I didn’t.”
“Then what is it?” Ellis pressed, leaning in closer.
“You're horrible,” Freya murmured, her voice soft, slightly drowsy, and almost childlike. “You scared me.”
Ellis let out a sudden laugh. “Didn’t think you'd ever admit to being scared.”
“You're horrible,” Freya repeated, half pouting.
“How exactly am | horrible?”
