Darkening Chaos: book Three of the Destroyer Trilogy
“I can’t bear to look at him when I tell him. “When you went to Ohio …”
My breath catches in my chest, and I have to pause to compose myself. “I went to see my dad, and Braden was waiting at my car when I came back. He offered to stay with me, for protection … and because he wanted to. I wanted to tell him no, but I couldn’t. We went out to Bosque Del Apache and spent the day hiking.
When he took me home …”
All control abandons me. Tears run down my face with abandon.
“When he took you home, what?” Milo almost yells.
“He didn’t leave,” I say, but I rush to continue. “But he stayed on the couch, I promise! He was afraid to leave me alone in the new house. Nothing happened.”
“Nothing happened?” Milo demands. “Braden spent the night with you, but nothing happened?” His voice rises with each word, fierce and angry by the end of the sentence. I shrink into the couch, wishing I could disappear entirely.
“Milo, I didn’t sleep with him,” I say quietly.
