Chapter 22

      CLEONA

The day went by with Andre trying to act as though everything was normal. Kyla called to check where I was but I explained that I was safe and sound even though I refused to tell her where I was. Then again, I'm sure she knew. 

I tried calling Ariadne but she still wasn't picking my calls. It hurt but I tried not to think about it, instead focusing all my thoughts on whether or not to answer Andre and what my answer would be to his question.

I eventually decided that I would tell him when night fell and then I tried my best to focus on whatever activity we were doing. 

Night came sooner than expected and I found myself growing anxious and nervous as Andre escorted me to my room.
