Chapter 22

• Ella
• I wake with an immense headache that I have never felt before. I can't remember the last time I drank. I have always been cautious for the sake of my son but yesterday, I couldn't take it anymore.
• However, the warm body protectively holding mine compels me to open my eyes. My eyes widen when I come face-to-face with Leon. Luckily, he is still deeply asleep and I sigh in relief. I slowly untangle from his hold and get out of bed.
