Anu;
I don't think my body understands that I'm safe yet. Or maybe it's the fact that I don't fully know Zane?
I trusted him enough to save me from whoever was on my trail… but that he won't pose another danger himself… I don't know.
The vulnerability andI built fear that comes with being a woman stings sometimes. I can't bring myself to relax even though we're miles away from my house and its vicinity. Even though Zane had promised me safety… can I lean into it?
The car rolls to a smooth stop, and for a second, I just sit there. Staring into space, fingers still curled into fists on my thigh as my mind replays everything that happened.
My heart is no longer racing, but it hasn't slowed enough to feel normal either.
Zane shuts off the car's engine and turns to look at me.
"We're here," he says gently, and I blink back to the present.
I slowly look up, and my eyes widen instinctively.
Before me is a… a house fit a…. "Real Housewives of Something" series.
