Free No Longer

Kathrine was sitting inside of her office, working diligently with a peaceful smile on her face. She was in an extremely good mood despite Apollo being away and the fact she was still dealing with the work that she fell behind on while she took that week off to care for her man.

Something had changed. In the past, she would have brought the hammer down on everyone, overtime tripled and paid breaks withdrawn until the work was back to normal, but this time, she took it easy and despite everything going much slower than she liked, she was still in a good mood.

Still, as her thoughts lingered on Apollo for a moment, her eyes darted to a picture on her desk. It was her, her mother and Apollo all together at the queens party. Kathrine gazed lovingly at the picture of Apollo, stroking the frame for a moment before she pulled away.
