Chapter 87 – The Stolen Hearts (Anj‘s POV)
After that conversation with Dylan, I knew the night would be long, and it would be difficult to stop my brain from thinking.

A small sigh slipped my lips as I pulled off my clothes, chugged on the bottle of alcohol as if this was my last day on earth, and went to the shower area. I could not drown myself in the sprinkle of water from the shower, but the liquor might. By the time I was done showering, the Vodka was almost half empty.

I ignored him as I sat and hugged my knees in the corner. When it became quiet, I buried my face in my arms and began sobbing. There was something heavy inside me that I had to cry to help me ease the pain I was feeling. I hate myself
