Chapter 35

  Niya feels the tension between them rising, feels his reluctance and her stupidity. She is moments away from smacking her hands on her forehead. His expression is mostly unreadable but she does know that their semi drunken state cannot be blamed for what transpired last night. They were fully alert when they were fighting. She glances at the bandages on his hands..they must hurt.

  “Are they painful?” She points at his arm.

  “No.. little bit but I have had worse” He replies shrugging off the concern. She knows that he has worse scars; she has seen them and has wondered about the details.

  “Niya, thank you for last night. Without you I would have lost both my friends.”

  “How is Tristan now?”

  “He is okay.. I haven’t asked him anything yet. Maybe he can give some details about the incidents. I am forever in debt to you for risking your life.”
