I stayed still and concentrated on my breathing. I didn’t want to focus on all the thoughts that, now that the physical moment had passed, were raging a war in my head. I glanced at Jaxon. His eyes were still closed. I wanted to shake him awake and demand answers.
“What are you doing?” I whispered.
Jaxon opened his eyes and looked at me but made no motion to speak.
“Jaxon….” I pleaded.
He turned away from me. “You were clearly only looking at me as a villain who took what he pleased without a care.”
He still wasn’t telling me anything. I needed to know how he really felt about me. But he was right back to being… Jaxon. “Do you want me just to hate you?” I asked. I tried to keep my voice even but the anger slipped out.
Jaxon frowned. “It doesn’t matter what I want…” he whispered.
