AN UNWATED COMPANION

JASMINE'S POV

I quickly went down to my feet.

"You can punish me in any way want." I said to him.

My heart was racing so fast it felt like it would jump right out of my chest.

"But please spare the lake." I begged daring myself to look back up at him.

How could I explain to him that I was scared of losing the lake because of what has happened to me back home?

How my family had destroyed the one thing I had loved and I had watched it burn to ashes.

The entire place destroyed.

I couldn't go to through the trauma of that again.

"We will discuss this later." He said wounding irritated. "Get up."

I did as I was told.

"I'm sorry for being in this. I will go on my own back home." I apologized and started to leave when he grabbed me and hauled me to him.
