I have a fitful sleep full of nightmares and I wake up, needing to immediately run to the bathroom to vomit. I'm brushing my teeth and splashing my face with cold water when I hear a knock on the door. That will be Alexine coming to dress me for the day. I want, more than anything, to skip today. To say I'm not feeling well and hide under the covers while I digest this new information, but that's not in the cards for me. Every day, I'm either one step closer to being with Killian or Stone and if I skip today, it might be the latter. I take a big breath and put on a pleasant smile, then open the door. She enters the room and I sit at the vanity as usual but I'm not able to be my normal self. I hope that she doesn't notice, but that hope doesn't last long. "No questions for me today?" s
