Chapter 26: It’s Not My Fault We’re Falling Apart

He grabbed my right arm and pulled me up. I wasn't planning on following him, but he was so strong that he pulled me to my feet.

"If you have something to discuss with me, talk to me directly," Ash added, giving her a deadly glare.

"How can I talk to you if you won't even bother to meet me, Cassius?" Evangeline said, the frustration evident in her voice.
