Chapter 285: You Owe Me
The wedding went off without a hitch, but the night was far from over as Dani dreaded the ensuing night that she would have to spend with Abel. Not that she was actually dreading it, of course. She just wasn’t sure what was going to happen next now that they were married. She sure as hell didn’t just want to sleep with him that easily knowing that he probably didn’t even have any sort of emotional attachment to her just yet. And the same could be said for her... Then again, she did have some sort of emotions for the man despite everything. And she...
Ugh... Why did things have to be so hard?
"Are you alright?"
Dani perked up as she heard Zaila approaching her. They were currently at the afterparty reception part of her wedding. While she was supposed to be with Abel during these times, she really didn’t feel like being awkward around him at the moment, so she excused herself for a bit to try and regain her courage and sense, feigning having to go to the bathroom to see if it would help...
Only, it never happened. Instead, she was nursing a headache as all of the thinking she had done even before the wedding happened became too much for her poor brain.
"I’m fine," Dani reassured her friend as she waved her hand. "Just nursing a headache, is all."
"Maybe a drink would help," Zaila advised her. "Or maybe I can just heal you. This night will be the night that you and Abel will-"
"Don’t worry, I’ll handle myself fine," Dani shook her head at her friend. "I’m sure that a glass of water will help with this."
"If you say so," Zaila shrugged. "Just remember everything we talked about... all the stuff."
