Chapter 346: True fear

"P-please get dressed. We should already be at the palace by now. Why didn't you wake me up?" Abi tried to avoid his gaze as she put her hand on his chest, stopping him from coming any closer. What happened last night was something she would never regret but right now, she couldn't do more than that. She couldn't give anything more, not until he remembered her, not until she was certain that he would be alright.

But Alex just smiled and didn't back off. He was about to give her a kiss but a loud ringing interrupted him.

He ignored it and proceeded to lean towards her but Abi slipped away, taking the blanket and wrapping it around her and quickly grabbed her phone. She thought it might have been Zeke calling to ask where the hell they were so she was relieved to see that it was her dad who was calling her.

"Hi, dad," she answered, as Abi glanced at Alex hoping he would behave while she was on the phone to her dad.
