#Chapter189
‘There’s no man … There never was. You are more than enough male in one lifetime to be dealing with, Carrero. I haven’t got the stamina to put up with drama from any other arseholes in my life. Have a nice day.’ I roll my eyes at my own dumb weakness and turn on my heel to walk away, not waiting for retaliation or even a reaction, and feeling completely stupid for telling him the truth and losing that tiny annoyance in his day. It’s such a dumb move and no doubt one I will regret later.
I don’t know why I am all soft and caring about his mood after he’s been an ignorant prick but here it is. Alexi’s getting into my head and messing me up without even trying. I am obviously just having a very off day and should go back to bed.
Jackson is waiting patiently outside the door for me and I slide my arm into his as I meet up with him, instant calm and soothing warmth to pick me up out of my dark hovel and set me up for a brighter day ahead.
