~Evric's POV~
"Zayn…" my voice cracked, but I steadied it, dropping lower, heavier with tension. "Who is Evans?"
He didn't even look at me, just said flatly, "Will you let me out or not?"
I instilled myself firmly in front of the door, refusing to move. My silence was answer enough.
Zayn's gritting. "You're still apologizing for one thing," he said coldly, "and yet you want to add another to the list?"
I threw my hands up in surrender. "Never… no more. Please, forgive me, baby." My voice trembled between guilt and stubborn love. All thoughts of Evans vanished; I stopped arguing and focused only on making things right.
His lips pressed into a thin line before he finally muttered, "I'm hungry. Order us food."
I tilted my head, narrowing my eyes. "Will you forgive me after I order the food?"
His silence cut deeper than any word.
