I could just come clean to him and tell him I wasn't his wife.
But the words stuck in my throat like dry bread. What if he flipped out? What if this was some beast-man trap and "babe" turned into another monster the second I opened my mouth? My body still ached from the rhino stomping and that damn maid's racket smacking my face raw. I could feel a loose tooth shifting in my gums—thanks for that, lady.
I was so mad at her suddenly, u literally saved her and how did she repay me, a smack across the face, wasn't that amazing.
The bathroom door clicked shut behind him, water starting to run. That gave me maybe two minutes. I threw the Paisley blanket off completely and slid out of the bed, my bare feet hitting cold tile. The room was so cold the chill hit me with full force and I began shivering, I wanted so badly to rest on that comfy bed . I glanced down. Human again. Skinny legs, no gray hide, no heavy cement legs.
