Chapter 188

Brynn mulled over what had transpired in Killian's room as she left, feeling the coldness he had cast her way. Was she not the same person that he had sex with moments before? Whatever had changed, it was clear that he wanted her gone the moment morning came, and there was nothing she could do about it. As she set out on the path to her room, she couldn't help but replay the moment in her head, trying her best to decipher what might have gone wrong.
Brynn reached her room, not even sparing a glance at anyone as she held back her tears till she closed the door, and she was completely alone before she felt her tears fall. "What are you crying about?" You shouldn’t feel hurt; it wasn’t real; it was never real." Brynn shamed herself the moment she saw her reflection in the mirror.
She immediately raced for the showers, washing away last night’s soreness in her body and internally praying that her memory from last night would be washed away too.
