Chapter 35

• Riek's POV
• I'm a fearless girl, strong emotionally and physically, unable to be captured by any man's beauty. I can compliment it inside me or to someone with me, but none has ever taken me to the clouds like this before. After my rape, I began to hate men, especially the handsome and flirty ones, strangers and those with seductive lifestyles, I believe it's a man like them that did that to me. I clear my throat nervously as he finally gets to sit beside me, I shift to have a little space for myself, the sensation is overwhelming to have him so close that our bodies touch.
• He places his hand on my shoulders and I nearly vanish into thin air. I look at my dress again, it isn't what I wore yesterday. I was almost naked. "You undressed me?" I forced it out of my mouth, regretting it as soon as I did. Asking him this means that I know he did see my nakedness, he must have touched my body as well. It's quite embarrassing to say this to a man whom you're head over heels with.
