Chapter 93

Chapter 93

Brooklyn

The next morning, a car takes me to the stables, as requested.

It's not Lucas driving this time, and I'm quiet the whole journey.

I felt miserable all night, but a smile tugs at my lips as the driver pulls up to the barn.

As I get out of the car, my mind elsewhere, I do a double-take when I sees a flash of long purple hair. Wait.

"Oh my god," I whisper, standing shocked and still as Jolie peeks her head out of the barn.

And then we both scream, flying across the ground towards each other, colliding and wrapping our arms around each other, holding tight.

We pull back, staring, each of us hardly able to believe that the other is real.

"What are you doing here," I ask, unable to stop the tears streaming down my cheek.

"I can't believe you have a horse!" Jolie squeals at the same moment, laughing.

I step farther back, holding my sister at arm's length.

"Seriously," I say, shaking my head and marveling at Jolie. "How did you get here?"

"Kenwood," Jolie says. "He came by the club last night and asked me if I wanted to see you. We struck a deal."

My eyes grow wide, disbelieving. Of all of the people in the world who I thought would help me reconnect with my sister...

The last on the list would have been Aden.

What had changed?

I can't stop smiling at my sister as we slowly walk around the fenced paddock of the stables, Heathcliff happily walking alongside us.

Jolie, unfortunately, is less happy about the company than Heathcliff is.
