CHAPTER 85

Xander nodded his reply at her once while not breaking eye contact. 

It was as though he was busy searching her eyes to see the truth like he could actually envision what she was thinking and read her mind through her mind's eyes but no matter what he did, he just could not get anything out of her unless she told him.

"Okay. I will."

He felt his heart leap for joy in his body and his mind relaxed a fraction but he still kept his guard up least she tried anything funny.

 "Really?" He arched a brow at her and she knew he was having some doubts considering she agreed so easily.

Jade let out a soft sigh before pulling back and straightening her back. "Really Xander. I would tell you."

"Thank you, my love."

"Hmm, let us go to the room."

"Yeah. We should." He took one more look at her weaponry before returning his gaze back to her and left the room.
