And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie) novel Chapter 314

***

Cassie.

The nerve of that man. To think, once upon a time, I looked at Odin as an all powerful being. One who could fix all of our problems, and instead, he was a complete fucking asshole. "Cassie, are you okay?"

Trixie's voice called out to me from my bedroom door, and as I stormed around my room, I turned to her, watching her close the door quietly before walking further in with caution on her face.

"Can you believe what he said in there!" I yelled, shaking my head in anger. "He is a complete dick."

"Cassie—" Trixie quickly said, looking around as if someone could hear us right now. "You can't say things like that. He is the man in charge, and trust me, you don't want to get on his bad side."

His bad side?

I wasn't worried about getting on this man's bad side. What I was worried about was trying to find a way to get back home. There was no way I was staying here under the care of a man who had basically used my grandmother the way he did.

"Trixie, do you honestly think what he did was okay? I mean, that's horrible how he tricked my grandmother like that—"

"Cassie, you didn't even let him finish. For all you know, he did tell her afterwards, but instead of listening, you freaked out on him and caused a scene. There are always multiple sides to a story."

Raising a brow, I stared at her in shock. How she spoke to me reminded me so much of Melissa, and with a heavy sigh, I nodded.

Maybe she was right, maybe I did freak out on her for no reason.
