CHAPTER EIGHTEEN Can’t be hungry. He just drank that whole bag, and why ruin his appetite before dinner, right? Which means— Before I can complete this thought, Kain climbs onto the bed. Does he think I’ll follow him? Not in a million years. He sprawls on his back, his pale eyes intent on my face. “I know it sounds crazy, but I’m a little uneasy about what’s to come.” Uneasy about what? Inviting me for an exchange of bodily fluids? He swipes at his forehead, brushing back a string of limp brown hair. “I haven’t slept for decades. I can’t remember the last time I dreamed at all, and now I’m about to do it with a witness.” I blink as everything clicks into place. He wants me to clear him of wrongdoing right now. Whew—that makes more sense. Damn sleep deprivation is making me paranoid.
