"You could at least pretend to be comfortable. Your dislike for being in my car is too plain obvious, niñita." Sebastian mused, tilting his head slightly to the side to look at the woman curled up at the far side.
She was sitting so close to the window, practically glueing her body to the car door, as if she would rather be outside than in here with him. He was even surprised she hadn't jumped out already while the car was still moving.
When they had stepped out of the healing house earlier, she hadn't wanted to even sit inside his car at all for a ride. Instead, she had begun to walk down the road, intending to walk all the way back to the High Tower where she stayed.
Sebastian had offered her a ride, and she had bluntly and forced-politely said no, thank you, claiming she needed the exercise from walking and insisting that he should leave her be and return to his work instead.
