Chapter 8

　　When I woke up, it was already noon.

　　I walked out of the bedroom and saw the tray on the table. Tianna had come and left some food for me in case I was hungry when I woke up.

　　I went to sit down at the table. It was sunny, and I felt good. It seemed our first day was not that bad.

　　Thinking of Pedro, I felt my cheek getting hot. "It may be a good start, right?" I thought.

　　**Pedro's POV**

　　Last night, I left after Cora fell asleep. I liked to sleep by myself. I knew that many people wanted to kill me, so for years, I never let others get close to me when I was sleeping.

　　But Cora was different. It was the first time I had an impulse to stay, although I finally went back to my room. I watched her fall asleep because of exhaustion. Her face was still red, and her hair was stuck on her forehead because of the sweat. I could almost hear her cry.

　　"Pedro?" Sean's voice interrupted my thoughts.

　　I came back to my senses and saw Sean looking at me strangely.
