Alex awoke in her bed. Her whole body was sore. She couldn't even move her fingers. The adventure from the last few days hit her hard and she sobbed. It felt almost like a dream. More like a really horrible nightmare. Her insides felt raw and empty.

"Well, except sleep with my wife."

"I'm not your wife." Alex spat hoarsely and pushed herself upright.

"You are until you finish your contract. Let's be civil here." Henry sat down on the bed. "We can make a deal."
