CYRILLA'S POV
I don’t understand why Hunter’s mood had soured so suddenly, leading him to storm out of the office. Was it because I admitted I liked Elijah? He asked for an answer, didn’t he?
I like Elijah the same way I like Theon, Colton, Millie, and Laura. What’s so wrong with that? I tried not to overthink it. Surely, there was something else bothering him. He wouldn't be that petty.
I couldn’t shake the feeling that he’s been avoiding me since yesterday. So, I threw myself into work to distract myself from it. Still, I dreaded the thought that if this continues, we might fall back into how we were before—when we couldn't stand each other.
Would he really be childish over something so trivial? I thought we had an agreement to listen to each other before jumping to conclusions.
