Zane - (Makai's Point of View)

"Is he sleeping again?"

I'm startled awake in the chair when I hear the voice and realize I had dozed off. Storm's second brother Zane looks at me apologetically when he sees that he had woken me up.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were also asleep."

I roll my shoulders and stifle a yawn. "It's alright. I dozed off."

There's an awkward silence as we both stare at each other. Zane seems to want to say something, but shakes his head and chuckles awkwardly.

"Tomas wouldn't believe that I was ever in a situation where I didn't know what to say."

I incline my head in confusion.

"My mate. He won't believe I'm having trouble finding the right words. I suppose I'm a little star-struck," he admits with a nervous smile.

"Starstruck?"

He nods eagerly. "You have no idea how long I've been fangirling!"

I'm still confused. "Fangirling?"

He laughs lightly. "Over you, silly. I already told you I'm a fan. You're so incredible in the Pit."
