Chapter 33 Seduction

• Chapter 33: The Thin Line
• The ride back to the mansion was tense, the atmosphere inside the car thick with unspoken emotions. The rain drummed against the windows, a relentless beat that matched Amanda’s racing heart. She was exhausted, her body aching from the events of the night, but her mind was too restless to find any peace.

Kazimir had remained at the safehouse, too injured to travel back with them. It was a small mercy, Amanda thought, given the awkwardness that seemed to grow with every passing mile.
