Chapter 149

His Delusion

SKYLA.

I’m about to say something when I feel a wisp of air swirl around me. She’s leaving! Although I know she’ll remain in a way, I won’t ever get to talk to her again and oddly, that fills me with

sorrow.

‘I won’t fail you.’

‘I believe you won’t. I have faith in you, my Lioness.’ Her words seem to echo inside of me

and my eyes flash as I feel something like a sharp zing rush through me.

with me, but not in the way she has been until

My nails have been cut shorter, curved into almond shapes, and painted a soft pink.

My tattoo is completely covered and in my ears, I’m wearing just small pearl studs, the rest

empty. Leo’s earring is sitting on the counter and I’m waiting for my chance to swipe it.

Subtle blush and a touch of pink lipstick finish off my look.
