I woke up slowly, trying to remember where I was. I tried to recall what happened last night.

I had been home last night making a batch of pain amulets when Trent called. I went to his compound and groomed his stupid horse. Then I went home, right? No. I had stayed at Trent's house. I had fallen asleep fast because I was so tired. But I woke up a couple hours later and threw up in the bathroom. I hope I'm not getting sick. Someone had held my hair back while I was puking my guts out. I had looked around when I was finally done and saw it was Trent, looking very concerned. I kind of collapsed, but he had caught me and brought me back to the guest room.

I opened my eyes to confirm this, but saw silver wallpaper instead of blue. I was in a different room!

I tried to get up, but Trent's arm was wrapped around me. Still asleep, he just pulled me tighter against him. Now here was no way for me to escape. I didn't even try to remember the rest of the night. I was pretty sure I knew what had happened. I just closed my eyes and waited For Trent to wake up.

Eventually I heard a yawn from behind me. Then a surprised voice said, "Rachel?" I rolled over to face him. "I'm so sorry. I should have just sent you home."

"It's okay. That sure was a night to remember," I said, laughing.

What he did next really surprised me. He said, "Yes, it sure was." Then, pulling me tighter against him, Trent kissed me. I liked it. His voice whispered into my ear, "I'm sorry, but this just feels so good. So right." I agreed.

Then Quen walked in.


Hey there! I know that this chapter is evenshorter, but I didn't want to keep anyone waiting too long. And it was the perfect place to end for a cliffhanger. I was going to make it better, but I just couldn't wait to get this out. Many thanks to everyone who reviewed! I love reviews so much that I won't add the nextchapter untill I get more reviews. And many thanks to Assija, who helped me figure out how to get my story on here. Thanks for reading, now go review!
