The whole thing had left her so shaken, she practically shut down. And for a long time after, the nightmares didn’t stop.
Tessa had never experienced anything violent before. Her life had always been peaceful–until now. Everything suddenly flipped upside down. Of course she was overwhelmed.
Stella did her best to soothe her. “It’s okay, sweetheart, don’t cry. I promise you, Victor really won’t hurt you.”
He was scary enough when he wasn’t even talking–just standing there with that cold look on his face was enough to make
anyone nervous.
But Abraham had personally asked Victor to take care of her. There was no way he wouldn’t protect Tessa.
That’s the only reason Stella had felt safe letting her stay with him.
What she hadn’t expected was that Tessa would keep running into trouble even under Victor’s watch.
It was
was already hard enough for Tessa to cope with her world suddenly thrown into chaos–and all these accidents just made things even worse.
Espécially since those accidents were…
Forget it.
Once she got back, the first thing she’d do was bring Tessa to her side.
Tessa sniffled. “Really?”
“Yeah, really. Nothing else is going to happen. My flight’s tonight–you’ll see me tomorrow morning.”
She’d originally meant to say, “If nothing goes wrong, we’ll see each other tomorrow morning.”
But Stella held back.
Tessa was especially sensitive to the phrase “if nothing goes wrong” right now. Because usually, when someone said that, something did go wrong.
Please, let this return to Falvaria go smoothly this time.
Tessa’s heart couldn’t take much more.
“Okay… I’ll wait for you. You really better not run into anything,” Tessa said between hiccuped sobs.
Stella smiled. “Okay. No more surprises.”
But the truth was–there was no way to be sure.
If something happened with Abraham again, she’d be caught up in it too.
Still, there was no way she could say that to Tessa right now.
She even considered, if something did go wrong again today with Abraham, maybe she should just go back alone.
Tessa seemed a little more at ease now that Stella had promised her. “Alright. I’ll wait for you. Come back early tomorrow.”
“I will.”
“And come straight to me when you land. I don’t want to stay here with him anymore. I don’t ever want to see him again.”
What kind of mess had she gotten into now? Poor girl sounded absolutely traumatized.
“What did you do this time?”
The first time, she’d smacked Victor with his belt buckle. Then she’d yanked off his towel. And now what? What had she done this time?

Judging from her tone, something major had definitely happened again.
Wait–was it the cold compress from last night?

Before Tessa could answer, Stella jumped in. “Hold on. When you were trying to cool him down last night, don’t tell me you…”
She paused, then cleared her throat awkwardly. “Don’t tell me you stripped him and got caught doing it?”
What else could have scared her this badly?
The line went completely silent. Not even a sniffle from Tessa.
Stella sucked in a breath. “Wait–it’s true?”
No way.
It was just a fever!
Victor might not know any better as a guy, but Tessa?
Wait a second… “Does that mean you…?”
If she’d actually stripped Victor down-
Forget getting scared. Victor had every reason to be furious.
