Enigma novel Chapter 33

Mom left me alone in the cabin with Ajax. I know what I did was foolish. I shouldn’t have run away in a situation like this. We already had so much on our plate with the possible attack and I had to go and get everyone in more trouble.

“I don’t want to reject you Ajax but in no way in the hell can I be with Zeno. Besides he might be the one that will reject me.”

I relaxed on the bed and curled up around him. He is so warm. This feels so nice.

“I know this does not justify Zeno’s actions but there is a reason he is acting that way. I don’t think he even knows that.”

“What is it?” I asked confused.
