Chapter 8 She had to run!

CA SSANDRA

I remained in bed with Finnick for a while and stared lovingly at his adorable face as he dreamt. Part of me could have stayed here forever, holding my sweet baby boy in my arms, but the other part knew there was so much to do.

I carefully tucked Finnick deep into the covers, and once I was sure he wasn’t going to wake, I quietly slipped out of his room and headed toward mine down the. hall. I gently closed the door behind me, and once it was shut, I released the sigh I’d been holding onto for hours now.

This was all such a mess, and there was only one thing I could do.

I had to pack- not for Anemond, but somewhere else.

I needed to take Finnick and run as far away as we could.

I didn’t see any other choice. My son and I couldn’t go to Anemond.

So, I started moving around my room and got to packing.

I grabbed only the essentials- a few pairs of clothes, some money I’d stashed away, necessary toiletries, and the legal documents I needed to hold onto for Finnick’s sake. We wouldn’t need much for now and couldn’t afford to be bogged down by material possessions.

In a little while, I would pack a bag for Finnick. I knew this was going to upset him, but I saw no other option. I would try to entice the offer as much as I could, but with how sensitive he was… I could only hope he would understand one day.
