After a forced dinner by Meena, where Skyla only could take a few bites she went to bed in his room. The sleep evaded her and relentless thoughts disturbed her wounded heart.
She finally drifted off with a disturbed mind but was woken up in the middle of the night by warm hands on her waist pulling her to him. Her eyes instantly opened seeking him. His forehead pressed against her chest in an attempt to find some peace.
"Zyair!" She softly called him out, her hands instantly cradling his head pushing him in further, "You OK?"
He dragged in a pained breath.
"No." He only said a single word.
Although he wanted to tell her what he had told the Police. It was most likely Doran because it was no coincidence that their home was invaded right after a week he was released. He had the most to gain from exposing Zyair's identity as he had pushed Skyla countless times to gather any personal data on him.
