Chapter 11

• Ava’s POV
• I crashed onto my bed the moment I got home. The day had drained every ounce of strength, and all I wanted was a few hours to steal back the sleep I’d lost.
• When I finally woke, I headed straight to the supermarket. I bought everything I needed for a hot pot meat, vegetables, spices, and even a couple of bottles of beer. After the first battle won, I decided I deserved a small celebration, even if it was just me.
