Chapter 117

Early the next day, Caroline woke up. She hurriedly lifted the blanket, only to find her clothes

intact. They hadn’t done anything last night.

“You’re awake?”

Caroline looked up and saw Kirk coming out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around

Kirk approached her and sat down on the bed, which dipped under his weight. His movements

tapped Caroline’s nose. “That’s it?”
