Chapter 26

• Sheila's point of view
• I scurried out of Killian's office; I simply couldn't stand the heat in there. I raced to my chamber without looking back. As soon as I was in, I slammed the door shut, my body leaning on it. My heartbeat was spiraling out of control, hammering hard against my chest, my body still trembling from the effect of Killian's body on mine.
• I sighed, plopping on my bed. My gaze stared up at the blank air. I was rooted in that position for a long time, several thoughts grazing through my mind as time flew by and twilight slowly crept in.
