[Vereena]
We slept that night with my back on him, an arm away from him, curling into a fetal position. I remember what I said, and I was surprised even to myself that I could make such a threat to someone like him. Though Callum respected my solitude and didn't do anything that would exacerbate my anger towards him. He indeed kept his distance. However, I woke up in the middle of the night sensing someone caressing my hair. He didn't say anything nor did I dare to move. I was anticipating what he may do next, but he just continued to fondle my hair until I fall asleep again.
I don't know, but the mere action set the entire wildlife free inside my belly.
The next morning, he was already gone when I woke up and the sun had already perched on top of the sky. Just in time, Edric came with bowls of food, he said the captain want me to eat all of it as I haven't eaten a thing last night.
