CHAPTER 245

"I'm sorry but this, all of this isn't for me. I cannot stay here with you. I appreciate what you did for saving us but I would not pay you back with my body."

He felt a stab of pain rush at his heart from net words, that had never been his intention but she thought it was. Never would he want her to give herself to him as a payback.

No, he would never reduce her to such a thing. How would she think that?

Wanting to help correct that notion, Xander took a step forward at her but Jade opened her eyes that moment and stepped back with a greater strength and force of determination in her eyes.

"So my answer is no."

"Jade."

Nor wanting to hear another excuse or even give him the opportunity to act the way he dis before, she turned around and dashed out of his magnificent room, leaving him sad and lonely.
