DAISY
It’s been three days since Adrian walked out, pissed at both Iris and me, and things haven’t been the same since.
I understand where he’s coming from. I really do. Being left out of something as huge as a mate mark is bound to sting. But I also know how terrified Iris has been since the marking. How much of herself she’s tried to bottle up. Adrian not knowing wasn’t betrayal. It was survival.
Still, campus feels off without his chaotic energy buzzing around. Everything’s quieter. Iris has been stuck in her own head. And me? I’ve had to endure people whispering that we’ve finally been dumped by the McAlisters like it was a ticking time bomb waiting to happen.
I’m halfway to my next class, trying to keep my mind off everything, when I take a corner too fast and wham.
