Chapter 53 Gwen

• Heading back to my room I tossed off every iota of dress on me, flung them in the hamper and went to sprawl on the sofa in exhaustion. Mental exhaustion. From all the stress I've been through today.
• My mind was like a windmill spinning wildly in contemplation of what I was going to do. It contributed to the migraine that rocked my head, making me wince. I looked towards the door as I heard the sound of fast footsteps that soon walked past. It must be Kora.
• Sadly, I didn't feel like going to tell her I wouldn't be staying in that room until my mental state felt up to it again. Particularly not after what I saw downstairs. Even after our fight earlier, Ashton didn't try to emancipate himself before me.
