“I’ll remember to paint myself in camouflage.”
He laughed softly and leaned in once more, kissing my temple. A single, low word breathed against my skin. “Behave.”
Then he was gone, and I was left panting. Practically sweating. I grabbed my phone. My training waited, but I needed advice, and Isolde was the person to give it.
Trinity
So I think Bastian might chase me tonight.
I mean, I’ve been telling him I don’t run, I only sneak, but I think it’s going to be something like that.
Isolde
Ooh, how fun! Where?
Trinity
No idea. He’s fighting tonight, and he says afterwards. He wants me to wear shoes to move in and stuff.
Any advice?
Isolde
Don’t hold back. It’s going to raise both your instincts to an insane level. Lean into it. You might be surprised about what you can do with adrenaline and survival instinct.
Trinity
Survival? He’s not going to murder me.
Isolde
Just your pussy.
Kidding.
But seriously, just have fun. You have your safe words, right?
Trinity
Yeah.
Isolde
Then you’ll be fine.
And I expect the details when it’s over.
Trinity
You know it.
Isolde
Logan slipped into my room after my training was complete. “Ready for tonight?”
“Considering I’m not exactly sure what to expect watching Bastian fightorwhat he has planned for after, I’m not sure. Thankfully, I have some work to distract me.”
I went to the office yesterday so I could focus on my research and pitch to Edgar, but he was still fine with me working from home.
