Rhea’s PovThe next morning, after Alaric had gone to the company, saying something about checking on some ledgers and what not, I couldn't hear him clearly. I ate and got dressed, pulled my hair into a neat low ponytail, grabbed my coat, and headed straight for the company.It was going to be a surprise visit just like I said, no warning and definitely no announcements. I wanted to see just how the atmosphere in my company was going to be. When I got there, I glanced at the tall building. The building still looked the same from the outside, tall glass panels reflecting the pale morning sun, but the feeling was different the moment I stepped inside. Warmth hit me first. Not just from the temperature, but from the atmosphere. The lobby buzzed with quiet efficiency, soft conversations, keyboards clicking, people moving with purpose instead of fear.“Good.

He reached into the pocket and grabbed something, a glimmer of happiness and hope in his eyes.
