Chapter 29 : Blackfire

My heart fluttered and I gasped. The bracelet was beautiful, regardless of the reasons why Soren had given it to me.

As much as I wanted to fight it, I really couldn’t deny that I was feeling something for him. Something more than what I wanted to feel.

How had I let myself fall for Soren?

I kept trying to tell myself the bracelet was a bribe or a leash of some kind, but my heart kept fluttering and kept telling me that it was a romantic gesture. Was that what I wanted it to be?

Thoughts raced through my head and I wondered if I had offered my body to him to make this deal or if I’d really wanted to share that with him.

How could this have happened?

He was so cold, indifferent, and infuriating. He was controlling and distant. That didn’t exactly spell out warm and fuzzy feelings…

But the moments we’d shared and how he was always looking out for me, it had softened my heart without me even knowing it.
