章 64: Chapter 63: NATALIA

I beat Lucien back to the palace by five minutes. That little conversation had killed any desire I had to go exploring on my own. Junior was doing jumping jacks in my tummy and I wasn't sure what it was that he wanted because all he's been doing for the last little while before this is eating and sleeping.

"Natalia!"

"Uh-oh!" I flew onto the bed and under the covers snapping my eyes shut as soon as he opened the bedroom door. I'm getting to know his tones and that one did not bode well. He couldn't possibly know that I'd snuck out of the house, could he?

Drats, I keep forgetting that he can read my mind and more importantly that these days he sticks to me like a second layer of skin. You'd think that he'd lighten up since we were here on his home front, but he only seems to be getting worst. I thought for sure I'd be safe this time though since I'd been asleep when he left.
