Rebel Heart

Her Guardian was the only stability she'd known since the world fell apart. Even Mr. Tim had abandoned her after years of mentoring her.

She definitely didn't know what to do about the thrill that went through her at the idea of a night with her Guardian. She'd fantasized about meeting him more than once, even if she knew it was impossible.

And she now knew what price she'd have to pay for her micro. She shuddered, despair creeping through her again. Maybe the man she thought was her Guardian really was dead, replaced by Brady, the man he truly was.

Her gaze went towards the bed, where his deep breathing was steady. Fascination and fear trickled through her. She'd always wanted to meet her Guardian.

Just not like this.
