Chapter 12: Sealed
Sirena
I don't know what to make of what Torin and I just did. He wants a contract. I foolishly thought that our connection was real. I feel so stupid. He wants to pay me for sex. Tears glimmer in my eyes, but I wipe them off and release a ragged breath. I don't know what to do or how to feel. What I do know is that I feel something deep for this damaged man, and he doesn't. A knock on the door startles me out of my musings. It has to be Nika. Straightening the ties of my robe, I walk hesitantly to the door and open it. Nika walks in and looks around the room nervously. "Can I come in or am I interrupting again?" I shake my head and close the door. "He's gone now. So you can relax."
Nika nods her head and walks to her bed, laying her backpack over it, then turns back to me, fanning her face. "Whoo… whee, I never expected to walk in here and find you riding some guy." She wiggles her eyebrows exaggeratedly. "That was hot. Who was he?"
