Chapter 1694

Skyler wasn’t one to turn down a free ride, but she wasn’t heading back to campus just yet. She had a shift waiting for her at a nearby coffee shop in the bustling business district.

Time had slipped away from her, and now she was cutting it close to the start of her shift. With swift strides, she made her way to the
