All the air in the room went still. The pressure building in my head and chest seeped right out as I realized what I said. I felt my arms go slack as my wolf finally settled down back inside me.
A heavy silence filled the room. I tried to focus my breathing, but the more I breathed the more I smelled the sweat collecting at my head, the spilled gravy from the tray I slammed, the scent of him all around me. It was all too much.
“What did you say?” I slowly picked my head up to look at Mordecai.
The anger was out of him too. He looked just as tired as I felt, and for once, I thought I saw him look sad, but it had to be a lie. I shook my head and looked away from him.
“Obviously, we are not good for each other,” I tried to start but my voice cracked. I wanted to slap myself. Why did I have to cry? Why, why, why!?
“So...you want me to divorce you? Melania, that would kill you.”
