He wraps the towel around me, his gaze dipping to my breasts one last tbefore he tucks one end of the
towel in, his fingers grazing my cleavage, and everything seems to disappear from my mind.
His eyes snap up to mine and our eyes lock as he removes his hand from where he was tucking the towel in.
Grabbing my waist, he liftsdown from the small ledge that leads to the shower cubicle.
“What are you doing here?” | ask quietly.
My skin now feels extra tender even though the cold water satiated it a little.

“Why are you so weak?”

“We are not all as strong as you... nor was | raised as a fighter.” | whisper, wrapping my arms around myself,
staring down at my arms that are slowly healing.
“Being a fighter has nothing to do with it. You are a Blood Born, whether you were trained or not, if you utilise
that power, you could do better.” He walks over to me, and | look up into those eyes once more. “Your brother is

It’s not his fault, but | don’t want him to seein this state. | feel confused and my mind is a mess.
Why is he entering my life like this?
He doesn’t respond, and | scoff. “Nothing to say? | thought as much, leave. Now.”

But I hold my ground even if a shiver runs down my spine.
“This is how it’s going to be. From now on, watch your back, whether it's at hor when you're out alone... I'll
be there... so be ready for anything every single day of your life... because until you learn to be vigilant, no

How? How is it possible that those words excite me?
