Olivia POV
I pound down the stairs hoping not to be late for Sadie’s friend’s arrival. This whole day was a sh** show. After our encounter on the training field, I went to my room. And stayed there. Unshowered, I cried into my pillow for 2 hours. Then, just before the meeting, I got it together.
I stopped by the pack hospital and talked to Heather. I was happy to see Ryan up and chatting away and returned to the house. The call from Sadie was a lifesaver. If not for that automatic out in my hand when I entered that office. I don’t know what I would have done. Being in there with him was torture.
I had steeled myself, pep-talking the whole way there. But when I was face to face with him, all that fell apart, and I could only master a blank stare. No, I need to focus on Sadie’s warlock
