Chapter 375 : Back to Class

*Olivia*

After a break that wasn’t nearly as relaxing as I had hoped it would be, it was already time to get back to class. I was nervous that going back might trigger even worse anxiety and fear within me, but part of me looked forward to getting back into my routine.

Leaving Paris early and being forced to spend the rest of the break wallowing in my own fear had been terrible for my mental health. And although I loved the extra time with Giovani, I also knew it was important for me to have my own life separate from him. I trusted that he could keep me safer than anybody else could, but I couldn’t live my life glued to his hip. I had to have my own life too.

To my surprise, the first day back had gone smoothly. I’d made it to all of my classes on time, and the extra guards that Gio had assigned to Dahlia and I really had made me feel safer.
