Chapter 26 'Ryn'

I heard my name and the next thing I saw was the bright light of a fast incoming car. I jerked awake, my heart thudding fast as I grabbed a long pointed hair pin and pointed it blindly at the darkness. "Relax." A deep, mesmerizing voice said. "It's just me."

My eyes fell on the huge, dark figure standing a few feet away from my bed and when I quickly turned on the bed lamp, I discovered it was Miro. He stood with his muscled arms folded across his chest, watching me with amusement glinting in his eyes.

My heart sk**ed a beat. "What?"

"Show me right here, right now how you would disarm me if I were some big, bad guy here to get you."

I studied him for a moment, not sure where this was coming from. The Prince was practically asking me to attack him. Was that wise? "No. Thank you." I said, sliding my hair behind my ears.

"That was an order, Ryn." Miro's amusement disappeared. "Get your pretty a*** out of that bed and show me how you'd protect yourself from the likes of me."
