Chapter 31
- PART 2
- Kaiser was shaving in the bathroom when my alarm went off. Today marked the end of the first week that I moved into his villa as his ‘female occupant’. He promised servants to attend to me when he wasn’t around. I knew this ultimately meant that he was going somewhere far for a bit, and I was growing dependent on his kindness towards me.
- “It’s not what you think. It’s just a symbiotic relationship,” my inner voice told me, reminding me to keep up my guard. What happened with Syl would have broken my heart to pieces had I been the old, vulnerable Piper, but once you fell to the bottom and lost everything dear to you, such things meant nothing anymore.
