"You're sleeping in a different room tonight?" Stella asked.
"Yes," Thirteen replied. "The aphrodisiac should be out of your system by now, so you'll be fine."
He also wanted to avoid mishaps that could and would happen if he kept sleeping with Stella. The past two days were an exception, as they needed to be together to counteract the effects of the aphrodisiac.
Thirteen deemed that it was now time to part ways. He had no plan to wait until Stella accidentally woke up in the middle of the night, only to discover that a big baby was suckling her.
"Undertood." Stella smiled faintly. "Goodnight, Zion. Goodnight, Tiona."
"Goodnight, Stella," Thirteen replied.
Tiona flicked her tongue twice at Stella as if bidding her a good night as well.
Thirteen then moved to the room right next to hers, which gave the young lady some peace of mind.
As he closed the door behind him, the teenage boy could finally sigh in relief.
