Chapter 95

"Yes."

I was about to say something when Conrad whispered, "I can't help it. I can't help wanting to be close to you, to be good to you, and... to tease you."

I didn't know how to respond, but then Brandon let go of me. "Drink plenty of water when you get inside. If you need anything, call me."

He pointed at my bag. "Your room key. I'll open the door for you."

I didn't open my eyes because I didn't want to talk, but I heard Kara mutter softly. "She's sleeping soundly. It doesn't look like I'm needed here."

Hearing this, I clenched my fingers. It seemed like Brandon had asked Kara to look after me.
