Ethan didn’t even look at me.

He pulled off his suit jacket, crouched down, and covered Chole’s naked body like I wasn’t even there. She whim- pered against his shoulder. He brushed her hair back gently.

“Get out,” he said without glancing up.

I stood frozen, lips slightly parted.

“Get out, Olivia.”

My chest tightened.

Reed hurried over and grabbed my arm just as my knees buckled. “Luna, are you okay?”

I didn’t answer right away. My jaw clenched so tight it ached. My eyes were burning, but I wasn’t going to cry. Not in front of them.

“You make me sick, Ethan” I finally muttered, shaking Reed off.

“Wait-at least let me-”

“No.”

I pushed his hand away. Every step out of that room felt like my spine was being snapped from the inside. I didn’t care. I’d rather crawl than let Ethan think I needed help.

I didn’t look back, but I could feel Ethan watching. I captured a slight guilt in his eyes, but I didn’t care.

I drove to my new home. When the elevator was already open. I stepped inside and leaned back against the wall, the cold surface helping a little. I sucked in a sharp breath.

Yve stirred inside me. ‘You don’t have to hold it in.’

“I don’t want to see his face ever again,” I mumbled under my breath. “I really want this to be over now.”

“We are over him already,” Yve said firmly.

Being so overwhelmed by everything, I finally decided to call Ava.

“Hey,” I said, trying to sound normal.

There was a pause. “Where are you?” Her voice was sharp. She knew something was off.
