She didn’t notice how her fists clenched. She did not like the thoughts but we’re now in her head. Did he have a betrothed? Did they have anything? Did he kiss her? Were they doing other things? He didn’t get all these skills from nowhere. She knew he had experience and she did not care before. But right now, Onyx was growling angrily inside of her, sharing her

thoughts. 

“How nice.” She didn’t know why her voice came out so high pitched. She wasn’t herself. Gideon strolled towards her through the room and caught her in his arms. “It never happened, Ria,” a smirk was dancing on his lips as he pulled her closer and took
