Chapter 205: Her Terms, His Conditions

[RANIA] 

"You've been silent for a while now. Is anything the matter?" Rania asked as she looked at the impossibly handsome man before her. 

He looked so fine it was a pain to the eyes and yet seeing him this silent was another to Rania. She had known him for a good while and she knew that his silence meant a lot of things and none of them were good. But maybe it was different today, right?

"I don't want them to go back to being cruel to you, because I wouldn't know what I'd do… Or maybe I know and I really don't want to explore that.
