Chapter 77 - Now We're Getting Somewhere!

Ari's POV

We left the diner to go back to the council headquarters where our room for the night is waiting for us. I’m exhausted all the time now, and I can’t wait to put my face into a pillow. We said goodnight to my dad and settled in our room for the rest of the night.

As I laid my head on a pillow on the bed, my phone went off. Someone text me, so I rolled over and grabbed my phone from the bedside table.

Alexia: I’m going to reject Lane.

Me: Really? Are you 100% sure about this? You know I will support you either way.

Alexia: I’m sure. I can’t even think about that place. I just can’t.

Me: When are you going to reject him?

Alexia: When will you be home?

Me: I don’t know…possibly two days?

Alexia: I want you to be with me when I do it. Ani and you both.

Me: Okay. I will. What is Ani up to?
