章 73: AN UNWATED COMPANION

JASMINE'S POV 

I quickly went down to my feet. 

"You can punish me in any way you want." I said to him. 

My heart was racing so fast that it felt like it would jump right out of my chest. 

"But please spare the lake." I begged, daring myself to look back up at him. 

How could I explain that I was scared of losing the lake because of what had happened to me back home? 

My family had destroyed the one thing I had loved, and I had watched it burn to ashes.

The entire place was destroyed. 

I couldn't go through the trauma of that again. 

"We will discuss this later." He said, sounding irritated. "Get up."

I did as I was told. 

"I'm sorry for being in this. I will go on my own back home." I apologized and started to leave when he grabbed me and hauled me to him.
