Chapter 0522

"I'm not using her."

"Then what are you doing, because you can't have them both."

"I don't expect to have them both, she left last night, I didn't go after her." My lack of action in chasing after Cleo has sealed our fate. With that and ghosting her after the hotel night, I'll be the last person she'll ever want to see.

"I knew you didn't come back last night, I checked the alpha office...so I knew you must be outside. You have some crawling to do with Callie, and her parents...that's one thing I can tell you for certain."

"Come on, if we make it back now, Callie won't know you spent the night passed out on the ground."
