107 Letting Go

Sebastian's POV

I got into a fight with Adrian.

I saw Scar with Adrian in the parking lot talking, happily. I could have gone and given her the files. It has been in my car where I basically live these days. I didn't. I wasn't in a hurry to cut the only connection between me and Scar.

I followed their car, not sure what I wanted out of it. Another talk after

Adrian sends her home? What could another conversation do? Everything I do right now only pushes her further away. But I followed them like a lost kid.

Adrian the jerk soon spotted me and lost me in the traffic. He was a racer, the one thing I could never win him with.

When I caught up with him, Scar already went to see Ava. I admit, I was upset. Ava wasn't in any urgent need, and he shouldn't have let her go. Jack Fuller doesn't care whether Ava needs it. He would drain Scar no matter what.

His daughter's illness planted a hunger for Scar's blood deeply in him.

I demanded why he let Scar do that and he punched me, shouting something about I didn't have the right to ask him that.

His punch doesn't hurt as much as the fact that Sear trusted him with her secret.
