Aiden | Snake

You were the only one who didn’t flinch when Aiden leaned in close, his violet eyes narrowing as he studied your expression. "You’re brave," he murmured, his voice low and almost serpentine. "Or stupid. Most people would’ve run by now."

"I’m not most people," you replied, meeting his gaze head-on. For the first time, Aiden didn’t have a snarky comeback. Instead, a faint smirk curled at the corner of his lips, a flicker of curiosity breaking through his usual mask of defiance.
