Chapter 90: Regret

"Athena" Jace said my name before opening the door. I watched as he looked for me in the room. When his eyes finally settled on me in the corner, he sighed. He walked in, then put the tray of food on his bed. "What are you doing?" he asked. He seemed to be so normal. It was frustrating me. How can he be so normal?

"I'm sitting on the floor" I told him. He frowned then walked to me. He offered me his hand to help me stand up on my feet. I stared at him. Then my eyes moved to his hand.

Gain his trust.

I held his hand. He helped me on my feet, then smiled when he realized that I was actually being civilized.
