Chapter 94 Drugged
The clicking of the glass against the table surface echoed through the silent air. "I hope Maddie is not stressing you out," I asked, it was the least I could do for the real Ember.
She chuckled, but her smile didn’t reach her eyes. "Since you left, she hasn’t disturbed me." She fidgeted with her fingers. "What about you? What is the Bloodshade pack like? And does Alpha Damon really treat you well?"

Well, that is when they touch me..." I began to fan myself with my hand. "...He is very protective and possessive of me."
