Anna stirred as sunlight streamed through the curtains, warm and unrelenting. Her lashes fluttered against the light before she groaned softly and rolled onto her back, squinting at the unfamiliar ceiling.
Then, like a flood, everything came rushing back.
Sophie's bridal party that Aidan had insisted on going to as a bartender.the jerk who barged in and hurt her and Aidan's sudden appearance, rescuing her from getting raped. She recalled how the assassins had also chased after them and everything else that followed.
She sighed deeply and sat upright in bed, scanning the room for Aidan. The room was so quiet, making her feel she was the only one in the room.
She swung her legs over the side, yawning as her bare feet touched the carpet, and she moved to the bathroom to check if he was there, but he wasn't.
Anna wondered where he had gone as she moved back to the bed to check the time. The time was 9 am, and her eyes widened. She needed to be at work.
