Chapter 132

ADRIANA

"Oh," is all I'm able to mutter and even that, about a minute later. I don't even think Donovan is listening to me, as usual, he seems like a wall beside me and while I'm scared of him, I weirdly feel safe too. What I don't know is, if it's because of Xander standing a few feet away, or because he helped me.

Well, Xander did technically but the Donovan I first met would have dragged me through the gravel to the car.

"Guess she isn't over him not wanting to see her again," I drag my eyes from the scene back to Donovan. He is already looking at me, his expression unreadable.

"Why?" I ask, although I have an inkling of the answer. I guess I don't want to get ahead of myself.

Donovan chuckles, though the sound is dry. His eyes look even drier if that is a thing. "Is that an actual question or are you trying me to stroke your ego?" I shake my head but don't say anything.
