***********************

Last night is still a blur to me, but by the note Everett left on my nightstand I knew I had a little too much to drink. He didn't sugar coat anything in his note. I'm dreading seeing him at the office today. Everett—I don't think I ever seen him mad before and I don't plan on it either. Getting to work this morning was a challenge in itself.

I barely made it here on time.

Ember is already on my case as I step foot off the elevator. She doesn't waste any time giving me orders and here I thought Jasper was my boss.
