Livana stood in front of the closed doors down the hall. Last night, after dinner, Nathaniel had come up to her room to apologize for making her submit and she had just nodded her head without answering anything. He had tried to kiss her but she had turned her head to the side. At her surprise, he'd just smiled at her before walking out of the room. As she replayed his apologies in her head a part of her wondered if he really was sorry.
