Jeslyn suddenly felt her throat go dry. Is it really going to happen tonight? She touched her reddened cheeks and couldn't help but feel embarrassed. From the way her heart was pumping, she was very sure that her face was as red as a tomato right now and Maverick must have seen it too. 

"Was that why he changed his mind?" She asked the rhetorical question to herself and then shook her head, "I don't think so." 

Jeslyn glanced at Valen, then shifted her gaze towards the window. The striped black and white curtains were pulled apart. Although she couldn't hear the pitter-patter of the rain, she could clearly see the lightning and thunder flashing across the sky.
