By the time I’ve taken a shower - a really long shower - and brushed my teeth, I’m more than ready for bed. It’s as if I’m in a state of half-shock, moving as though I’m possessed by reflex alone rather than any real control.

The scene replays itself in my mind at least a dozen times before I find sleep. They’re enough to drive me mad, half with lust and half with confusion.

David and I slept together. That’s the truth of it, any way I look at it. I’d made love with the President of the United States. I pray to God that none of the security outside my door had heard a thing. These walls better be soundproof.

I lie awake for what feels like hours, trying to make sense of it all.

The way David had touched me… the way he’d needed me… It’s nothing like what I’d expected. It was raw. Primal.

So Trevor was right, then, a cruel voice in the back of my mind whispers. You certainly didn’t put up a fight the second the President wanted you.

Trevor. Oh, Trevor. I’m not sure how to feel about him in the slightest, and the worry alone might finish me off. He might be sick… he might even have tried to hurt me… but he’d been my boyfriend for years. We’ve been together for what feels like forever.

I suppose we’d never technically broken up, but then I don’t think there’s any coming back from what he did to me. What he tried to do.

If Stephanie had been the person behind giving him my location, then maybe I should be worried about her too. But after a quick google search, it looks as if her profile has been taken down from the ClickBoom News website and all her public social media accounts are missing…

And as for Trevor, there are already several headlines popping up on my phone. ‘CRAZED LUNATIC ATTACKS VERONICA WATERS ON EVENING STROLL’.

Thank god nobody has identified the connection between Trevor and me. I’m almost certain the President must have paid off people back in Cali not to talk about it. Trevor and I don’t have many mutual friends, even though we went to school together. It’s a side effect of having very little in common, even if we’d sometimes enjoyed one another’s company.

Sleep makes me feel somewhat better, I think. It’s at least a short break from my over-anxious mind.

Or it would have been… if not for the dreams. Who else do I dream of but David? He slips into bed with me, his skin bare and naked against my own. We explore each other’s bodies with our hands and mouths, able to take all the time in the world to learn each other.

When I wake up, it stings to be alone.

When Jackson presents me with my schedule for the morning, I’m not very pleased.

“I was attacked yesterday night,” I remind him. “A guy literally held a knife to me and threatened my life. I don’t want to sit in a room and think about etiquette.
