After an infinite amount of time, I start to feel somewhat okay. “What happened?” I’m usually in control. I don’t like being out of it. Confused, my eyes wander restlessly around the room.

Maybe I’ve been dreaming. Maybe Lincoln is going to walk through the door any minute now.

“You had a panic attack. Have you eaten this morning?” Knox’s dark eyes study me. He looks so concerned about my well-being.

“No. I couldn’t stomach anything. I was worried about Lincoln and he didn’t come home to me last night.” Because he was here picking up his things, and then he left.

Eva elegantly moves around the room and orders room service for me.

“I should go.” I try to stand up, but I’m still unstable.

“Sit down and rest. You are staying, Violet. You need to eat, and then I need to tell you my plan. But I need you to tell me everything first.”

“A plan?” What is he talking about?

After a long pause, Knox tells me what he’s been up all night trying to work out.

And I don’t know if it makes me feel worse or better.

CHAPTER 25

Lincoln

Three weeks, five days, five hours, and thirty-six minutes.

That’s how long it’s been since I’ve seen Violet.

Since I’ve had a full night’s sleep.

Since I held her.

Felt her warm skin on mine.

Since I saw her smile.

She’s gone AWOL on social media following my departure and the last photo she posted was a selfie of her and I on the beach together. We were so happy and her eyes were sparkling with joy.

Fuck.

I left her.

I’m a fucking dumbass.

I didn't even leave a letter, and I did exactly what my mother did to me. I left without a word, leaving it up to my father to explain.

What a low-life asshole shitty thing to do.

And I can’t even bring myself to call her. I don’t know what I would say.

Sorry will never cut it.

I feel sick to my stomach with the way I have behaved and I’ve been avoiding my dad and my family because I’m so ashamed of what I did.

I fucking blew it all to hell.

And I miss her.

So fucking much.
