Theodore took no notice of her reaction.

"It's okay. It's just that I can't move my legs. But if you really want to..."

He paused, and lowered his head to whisper in her ear, "Sit on me and move by yourself."

Ariana was so scared that she didn't know how she got out of Theodore's bedroom.

She ran straight to her room and locked the door behind her. With her back pressed on the door, she held her chest and panted heavily. It was as if she had just escaped from a warzone.
