Chapter Fifty Three
| did need my mother’s visit more than | thought | did and after that, | was finally calm. enough to fall into a
restful sleep.
I didn’t know how long I slept, but something awoke me; | felt like | wasn’t alone in the room. | snapped my eyes
open to see Thane watching me, like practically sitting on a stool close to the bed and watchinglike a
complete creep. Thane was the last person | expected to see.
My heart slammed fast against my rib cage, threatening to escape the walls.
“You scared the living day light out of me, Thane,” | said. He didn’t say anything, still staring atwith those
dark amber eyes. Could I still be dreaming?. | pinched myself to make sure. | did feel that. This was no dream.
“I like watching you sleep,” he said, as if just realizing it. “I like so many things about you. | like when you are shy
and embarrassed, but what | love most is watching you in tears. You cried for me, and it was a fucking turn-on.”
“That's very creepy Thane, even for you.” He was turned on by my tears; that's very disturbing and twisted.
“But you
don’t know me,” he says.
“You need to go to the healers.”
“Why do y
you worry so much?”
“I didn’t expect the punishment to be so brutal, you should have warnedso | would be more prepared,” |
said, though | didn’t think anything he would say would preparefr that. | watched him, prying to see any
form of discomfort or pain in his features, and found none. He must be very good at hiding it.
“I didn’t plan on making you watch Riley; | knew it would affect you.

“It would have been worse staying here, left with my very unkind imaginations.”
“No, it wouldn't be worse,” he said, and he was right, but | wouldn't agree to it.
“You really need to go to the healers, Thane,” | said seriously, seating up. But he only chuckled.
“I don’t need that; do you want to know what I truly need?” he asked
“What?”
“I want to fuck you, Riley; that’s all the healing | need.”
| chocked on my own saliva. Why does he always have to be so... raw?. Heat pooled between my legs.
“Seriously, Thane?, you're injured, and this is all you can think about?”

“I heal fast, Riley. You won't understand,” he said, and | don’t know if | should feel insulted, yet | did believe he
was hurting. The fact that he had put on a shirt over the scarred skin botheredmore than it seemed to
bother him.
“Can | see?” | asked, knowing he would turndown.
“You want to see my injuries; | bet it would entertain you.
“I only want to see how bad they are.”
He pulled off his shirt, and | noticed it was slightly stained with blood. | rose from the bed, circling him to get a
good view at his back, and | gasped. The burns and the wicked-looking marks were still there, and just by staring
at them, | knew they hurt deeply, but it wasn’t as bad as it had been the last | saw them, and | knew the whips
hadn't ended after | left; he must have... healed. It was strange that he healed so fast; it had only been hours.
“You do heal very fast,” | say. “I'm so sorry, Thane.”
“Riley, | didn’t do this for you,” he said, and I inhaled sharply.

“You fought Slade off; he would have done worse to me. Thank you, you act like a...”
I had almost called him a dick to his face.

sentence,” he said, and for some
reasons | knew he ant it- What \

“Really?”
“Yes”
“Does this mean you'll go back to Beatrix?” | questioned, | just had to know.
