ELLA.
"Delusional!" I said out loud without hesitation, the word leaving my mouth before I could even soften it.
The effect was immediate, because the smile that had been lingering on Lawrence's face faded noticeably.
Not completely, but enough for me to know my words had landed exactly where I intended them to.
Honestly, what did he expect?
Did he really think I didn't know what he was up to?
I wasn't clueless.
I could see right through him.
The entire suggestion had nothing to do with helping me recover my memories. At least, not entirely.
He simply wanted an excuse to spend more time with me.
That was the real reason.
And judging from the hopeful look he had been giving me, he wasn't even trying very hard to hide it.
Unfortunately, Nyx wasn't helping matters at all. The wolf inside me seemed ridiculously excited by everything Lawrence said.
