The next few days go by in a blur. I don't know what to do with that information. I can't stop thinking about the ring. How perfect it was. Pink had been my favorite color once upon a time. I had turned my hair crispy trying to get it cotton candy pink. It was so bad it was stringy and stretchy every time I wet it. But it hadn't mattered because it was ***ing pink. Darren was so mad when I cut it to the center of my back to fix it and then he forbade me from ever bleaching it again.

Tulips is everything I thought she would be. I watch as her hands work over the keyboard faster than the other candidates. There are fourteen and only six are working out. I actually expected less. Four, maybe five of ten. These things are brilliant, but when you're part of one of the most powerful races in existence, you get arrogant. Arrogance often leads to laziness. And that's what the rest of them are. They lack the motivation to be better. "I have something for you," I stand by her desk. "An apology for how I reacted when we first met,"

"You don't have to. You're not all there. I get it," she rolls her eyes!

"Take the f*****g apology," I glare at her and she smiles. I place the bag and the wallet on the table between us. Her eyes go wide.

"This is a twenty-fifteen special edition C*****on Roll messenger bag," she screeches holding the bag up like it's the greatest thing in the world. "They don't make these anymore. You're giving it to me?"

"Yes," I take a step back alarmed by her reaction. Everyone turns to look at us. "I didn't think it was valuable. I paid like twenty-eight bucks for it. I used it to hide my gun-"

"You used this out on patrol?" she screams. I put my hand up trying to stop her from jumping on me.

"No, no," I try to dodge her but she's bigger and a whole lot stronger than I am. She buries her hands in my hair and massages my head.
