After spending time dressing Marco's wound and staying with him while he ate, I was ready to leave for the kitchen in order to return the plate that Aurelia had given me. My brain was currently muddles and my thinking process was fuzzy because the atmosphere in Marco's room had become tense and suffocating. It seemed like there was a switch that had been flipped in both of us at the same time and the restraint we both had the show was consuming.
"Get yourself together, Kat," I shook my head at myself and gripped the banister to go down the stairs. If I let my imagination run too wild, there was just no telling what would happen. For sure my judgement would become impaired and that was the last thing I needed. Honestly, of all the people in this house to lust over. Couldn't it have been his mom or something? She was gorgeous!
