CAMILLA'S POV
I ran my hands down my face trying to wash away the images that were now permanently etched into my brain. Seeing Christine like that was not on my bucket list of things to do and I couldn't help but wonder if some how I had made everything worse by storming into the room when she was with her mate. I waited a full five minutes before the door opened and Juan stepped out.
I didn’t want to meet his gaze for fear that there would be some kind of anger or betrayal in them but then he placec his hand on my shoulder in a warm and comfortin manner and I couldnt stop myself from looking up. His eyes didn’ hold any of those emotions, he just gave me a warm smile.
“She is waiting inside,” he said softly and I made to move but he held me in place. “She can be a bit unreasonable and I don’t know why you chose to do this but I believe it was for a good reason. She will come to understand it, sooner or later.”
I didn't know how much I needed to hear those words until he had said them. I blinked back the moisture that had gathered in my eyes and with one last comforting smile, I watched him start to walk away when I changed my mind and called out to him.
“This will seem like an absurd statement but can you stay?” I asked and his brows furrowed. “Not inside, I just want to know if you can stay close by to make sure that no one is eavesdropping or listening in”
His brows furrowed. “Does someone always listen in on your conversations?”
“I don't know, sometimes I think so and I don’t want anyone to overhear this. I know it sounds stupid but you have t trust me on this. I also don’t want anyone knowing that Christine and I are speaking. It might prove to be-"
He waved me off. “I'll be here, don’t worry and no one will know.”
I silently thanked him before finally making my way into the room. Christine was seated on the bed but this time she was dressed in one of her night gowns. Her hands were crossed over her chest and her face was carefully blank and devoid of all emotion. I hated it because it meant I had to guess how she felt, I had to guess how hurt or not she was “Christine-" I began but she held up a hand to stop me.
“Let me get this straight, you have been lying to all of us the entire time,” I wanted to refute her words but it was the truth and I wasn't going to put Ryker in trouble by saying I had told him earlier. “So this is why Ryker asked me to look into them. I thought he was just being worried but in truth, you had lied to us and he knew about it
“He didn’t, I only told him a few days ago. It hasn't even been up to a week since I did, I swear,” I wasn’t sure if she believed me especially considering she just turned away from me. “I wanted to tell you, I hated hiding it from you but-"

but she was my best friend, she was my sister and I couldn't do this without her. It was one of the reasons I wanted to keep her safe, I didn’t want to include her in whatever mess was forming. I didn’t mince any words and explained as best as I could. By the time I was done speaking, she had
