CHAPTER 21 Escape

  Kassandra's POV

  I lean forward from the wall as soon as Clayden leaves the guest room. Unlike earlier, he is wearing a white shirt and pants this time. He closes the door slowly before his gaze moves to mine.

  "Why are you still here?"

  I bit my lower lip. Worried.

  "Is she fine?"

  His forehead furrowed. "I thought you hated her? Why are you so worked up about her situation?"

  I blink my eyes. Does he know?!

  How-

  Ah.

  It's my time to frown at him. "Can't you stop reading what's inside my head? You're making me conscious!" I looked away, trying so hard not to think about anything.

  He chuckled before stepping closer to me. I reacted when he bent over while hissing. "How hard-headed. You just injured yourself last night, and now you got scratches and wounds." He looked at my face, so I looked down to see him. "You really know how to worry me, yes?"

  I move my legs away from him so he has released it already.
