章 51: Bad Idea, Right?

Jules' pov

My mouth fell open in shock and disbelief. I never expected him to actually move straight to that subject without any warning. I glanced around me almost immediately, making sure no one else had overheard.

"Um…" I began, because I had no idea of how to respond to that. How does someone even respond to that?

"Don't tell me you're changing your mind now." He scoffed with an eyeroll and I hurriedly shook my head.

"No, I'm not changing my mind." I breathed out, completely hating that I have to act like I want something to do with someone like Xander.

He screams nothing but bad news, and if anything, I wish I could strangle him and force out every detail I need from him on his father. But since I have no powers now, I have to do this the slow way, and which was to get him to fully trust me.

Although, so far, it doesn't seem like Xander was ever gonna give me an opportunity to form anything tangible with him.
