NYLAH
In the days that followed, I kept to myself and even stopped going to the garden or for strolls. I remained indoors, reading books about plants and the ancient sorcery with plants.
Even though I didn't understand a huge part of the book, I continued reading. I also withdrew from Sofia, bottled up my thoughts instead of opening up to her or asking her for answers to questions that I knew she had no answers to.
"You don't seem like a sulk." A familiar voice called from the door, making my eyes dart to the frame of a male standing by the door.
I'd almost jerked from the bed, how engrossed I'd been in that book that I hadn't noticed Brian walked in.
"What are you doing here?" If it were another male other than Xavier's Beta, I would've screamed my lungs out in fear or lounged at him with a weapon.
