Chapter 38

• Aspen POV
• I try to comfort Tia, but she is not having any of it. She is in pain and hurting from Emma's rejection. "She is hurting, Tia. She will come around. She went through a lot at the auction house," I say to her. 
• Tia wipes the tears from her face. "I am aware of what goes on in the auction; I was in it, remember. You worked those horrible things. So do not tell me what she went through at the auction. I know, Aspen. I know better than anyone in this house. I saw my sister raped and watched her die," Tia screams at me and then runs away, crying and yelling as she runs to the other side of the house.
