chapter 27 Pained

What an asshole!

The thought hung around in my mind as I swept through the thousands of pillows disposed on the silky white bed that belonged to one of the many guest rooms.

For a second I couldn't believe I spoke so illy about him and I had to constantly remind myself that this was in my mind and he was most definitely not a mind reader.

I shuffled uncomfortably as I thought about what was happening in the room just next to mine.

I didn't want to think about it.

I tried my hardest to concentrate on my work but my mind seemed to continuously drift back to what Alister must be doing with that other woman.

I knew I had no authority over him but the audacity he had to show up with some random girl, right after he kissed me!

I wasn't delusional. I knew I was just a maid and nothing serious would ever happen between us, but why does he have to confuse me this much?
