Chapter 37 My Fear

• I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep. Lucien arrived much faster than I anticipated and I wasn’t able to clean up anything. I was still naked under the covers and the bed was a mess for obvious reasons.
• I heard the sound of the door opening and then closing. Lucien is probably standing in this room right now. What should I do…should I wake up? Or should I continue pretending that I’m asleep?
• I heard his soft footsteps as he approached the bed and soon the bed creaked a little under his weight as he sat down on the side of the bed.
