As Zeke drove Thalassa to her and Luisa’s house, the ride was silent all the way. The few times he’d tried to initiate conversation, she’d instantly killed it with short, disinterested answers.

“Lasaa, are you okay?

She raised an eyebrow. “Why wouldn’t I be?”

Zeke bit his lip, wondering whether to probe. Since the day she broke down in his arms at her office, she’d gone back to never sharing her thoughts or emotions with him. He knew she wouldn’t tell him what was on her mind if he asked, but he was certain it had something to do with Kris Miller.
