Chapter 60: After

After the dry run, we all came back to the camp. And I decided, since Neuron and I broke up, I should just stay here. Until he calls me. If he calls me.

If not, then I guess this is really the end for us.

Which is kind of a good thing. He and I don't have any connection anymore. Meaning, I don't have to feel guilty about killing his father.

I broke up with him in the hope that he would choose me over his crown. If it won't work then I'd have to resort to force. I'd tie him up in his apartment if I have to or kidnap him to ensure he doesn't show up on the coronation day.

"Are you okay, girl?"

Geraldine squatted with me on the ground covered with grass.

"We broke up," I informed her.

Her eyes widened. "What? Why?"

I didn't answer her. She held my hand and forced me to look her in the eyes.
