Chapter 17

Drusilla got up from the table and grabbed my hand. Confused, I asked her. “Where are you taking me?”

She replied. “I just don’t want Cal to think I am making his precious girl slog, so you better tell that to him upfront.”

So, I needed some time to think and prepare myself. Drusilla let go of my hand and pushed me to the room I had been sleeping in.
