Chapter 207

Rose sat at the end of her bed, staring at the large clock present in the room. Each passing tick was loud in her ears. "Why didn't I give him more time?"

It was close to the hour Rose had given Zayne to be over. He had to be rushing because of it. 

It would have been better to think of him and let him return when he was finished with his duties.

The mansion was quiet as the others had settled in. Other than the guards outside keeping watch, Rose thought she was the only one awake at this hour.

Rose brought her feet up to her chest, hugging them as she continued to wait for Zayne. He would not forget to come to her so when he did, she wanted to wide awake to greet him. 

Rose couldn't believe the change she had gone through to allow Zayne into her room at this hour. They had shared the same room before but this was different. It was out in the open that they both had feelings for each other.
