Chapter 13 Trying To Be Polite

• Catherine’s P.O.V
• The ride home was mostly silent. I stared out the window, watching the lights blur past, my mind spinning too much for words. Xavier glanced at me once or twice, but didn’t say anything. I wasn’t sure if it was because he didn’t want to, or because he didn’t know how. Honestly, I just wanted to get home and crawl into bed.
• When we finally pulled into the driveway, I didn’t wait for him. I headed to the door and as soon as the guards held it open, I walked straight to the first floor, barely acknowledging Xavier’s presence behind me.
