Chapter 84

• Helios's POV
• I lay on the bed, Tasha still on top of me, her eyes locked onto mine. The kiss still lingered on my lips, its impact reverberating through my entire being. Disappointment washed over me - all this in one night? Tasha, my friend, my confidante, had crossed a line. Friends don't kiss, not like that.
• But... Tasha. She was different. She should stop this, I thought. She should stop making me feel this way. I wished she would. Yet, a part of me didn't. I wanted to explore this newfound tension between us.
