The thought of having to be Arlon's servant made it difficult for Zia to breath. She paced around the bedroom with her heart feeling as though it would leap out of her chest, hoping for an answer to fall from the sky so she would no longer have to do what she feared most. Worrying about being so close to Arlon's naked body gave her a horrible nauseating feeling.
She looked up at an old, rusted clock that surprisingly was still accurate and counted the minutes. After Helena set up everything, all that was needed was for Zia to do the bathing and massaging so it gave her more time to worry.
"Oh no! The massage!" Zia said to herself.
Helena forgot to show her how to give him the massage. He would be expecting it and she had no idea what to do. The only time she had given a massage was to herself when her muscles were sore from dancing. She had not clue how to give a man a massage.
