Chapter: 539

Alicia began to wonder if she was truly in the afterlife.

Caden took a sip of water and gently fed it to her, repeating the gesture with care, again and again.

Her lips soon grew numb, and her face began to ache. Only then did she try to pull away.

As soon as she did, Caden bit down playfully on her soft skin, showing his displeasure.

She let out a small whimper from the pain.

At that moment, the realization struck her-she wasn't dead. The memories she had before were just a dream.

Once the glass was empty, Caden wiped his lips and looked at her.

"Do you want more?" he asked.

Alicia shook her head, feeling satisfied.

She had come to terms with the fact that she was still alive, but one thing puzzled her.

“How did you know about my dream?" she asked.

How did he know she had dreamed of hell?

Caden set the glass down and smiled teasingly.

“Because you were talking in your sleep," he replied.

Alicia was shocked.

Seriously?

She talked in her sleep?

The revelation took her by surprise, and she found it hard to believe. “That can't be true," she muttered.

Without a word, Caden pulled out his phone and played a recording.

Her own voice filled the room.

"I like you... A lot. You're handsome, fit, and exceptionally skilled in bed!"

Alicia was mortified.

The voice in the recording was unmistakable and far too coherent to be sleep talk. Worse, Caden wasn't just listening; he was talking with her.

"I love having sex with you. It makes me feel incredible." The recording played on.

Alicia's heart sank as the words kept coming.

Realizing what was happening, a surge of adrenaline shot through her.

She pushed herself up, reaching desperately for the phone.

However, Caden skillfully moved it out of her reach.

“I love being in your arms. I love the way you fuck me, the way you look at me and kiss me."

Before the sentence could finish, Alicia's panic took over. "Caden! Stop it! Turn it off now!" she yelled.
