Chapter 68

“Okay, we’re here.” Avery said as she looked out of the car window. “I’m guessing he should be here since Luis told me River left the forest in a rush. I don’t think he would’ve gone anywhere else…” she mumbled to herself.

Lana’s grip on the box of morning after pills tightened. It’s too late for her to back down or change her mind now that she’s already here.

“It’s okay if you change your mind, you know.” Avery suddenly said, causing Lana to turn to her with widened eyes.

“How did you…?” Lana started, wondering if Avery has the ability to read her mind or something.

Avery smiled. “I can’t read minds if that’s what you are wondering, but I can read expressions and body language. You look completely frightened compared to your determined attitude from earlier. But I can’t blame you—even though you said that it’s just sex, to some people it’s more than that, right?”

Lana stayed silent for a moment. “It’s not the sex that I’m scared of.” She admitted.
