Chapter 13: On opposite sides of the truth
Merlina’s POV
Megan dropped me off at the School Library, saying she needed to finish up on her assignment back at the dorm. I told her it was fine and I wanted to be alone, needed the space to breathe, to think.
She grabbed a couple of textbooks on her way back and kissed my cheek before leaving. I thanked her again. She had no idea how much she’d already done.
But now that I was here, alone, in this dim, cold library filled with the scent of old pages and silence, I felt... restless.
What was I even supposed to do now?
I knew his name.
His department.
I knew his brother.
So... what now?
What was I expecting to do when I finally came face-to-face with the bastard who’d ruined my family?
I didn’t have a plan. I just had rage.
