He frowned, suppressing irritation. Not wanting to disturb the person in the other room, he answered. “Still up?”

“I’m just worried. Does Liana hate me?” Anya’s voice was sad over the phone.

“No. She doesn’t blame you.”

“That’s good. Elian, I’m so scared. Every time I close my eyes, I’m back there. They threatened to force themselves on me. I’d rather die than let anyone but you touch me.” Anya’s voice grew impassioned, swearing her loyalty.

Elian didn’t respond, rubbing his eyes tiredly.

After placating Anya and hanging up, Elian found himself drawn back to the bedroom door.

Yes, it looked like concern.

But Liana noticed her gaze lingering on her stomach. She replied flatly, “I’m fine. And you?”

“I’m okay. Elian found the best doctors for me. He-” Anya began.

“He doesn’t know this kidnapping was planned by you, does he?” Liana cut her off abruptly.

She knew Anya just wanted to rub in that she was Elian’s priority. Liana already knew that. Now she wanted to know something else.
