The suite of rooms assigned to Jace is three times the size of my studio: two bedrooms with a living space and a kitchen in between.
When our bags arrived, I'd stalked into the main bedroom, laying dibs to the side of the bed I wanted to sleep on.
A small gesture. But it'd felt important to stake my claim as soon as possible. He may own my time but he can't control every single move I make.
I'd stalked into the shower, and when I'd emerged wrapped in a long bathrobe, he'd been on the phone, his back to the room, looking out the window, speaking to someone in a low voice.
Refusing to speculate who he was speaking to, I'd taken my gown and my cosmetics, and walked off into the other room to dress.
Now I turn to see myself fully in the mirror.
