Chapter 65 Convince

• Olive’s POV
• As soon as Ryke and I step foot into the resistance, guns are pointed at us and we’re surrounded by the angry faces of the people of the resistance. With the way I’m dressed and with the Ryke places his hands around my waist, the people and kids I grew up with all give me unpleasant looks and glares, as if I betrayed them.
• “We thought you died Olive.” Paris says, stepping into the room in all his authority. I forgot how he was capable of exuding so much power just by his presence. He looks battled and defeated, like he’s one second away from losing it and crashing out, but as he sets his eyes on me, they soften in a way that makes me believe he truly is happy to see me.
