Chapter 131

Pattie had a nightmare. In it, she was screaming bloody murder, writhing like a possessed being, kicking up a storm with her feet, and flailing her arms to keep anyone from coming close.

Anastasia tried to soothe Pattie but ended up getting her face scratched up by Pattie’s frantic clawing. Despite the pain, Anastasia held Pattie close, whispering gently. “Don’t be scared, I’m here, sweetie…

Watching the situation unfold, Monica was also shocked. “Poor kid,” she murmured, her heart aching for Pattie.
