Chapter 031

Azriel

She had slept in my arms after the conversation, and I was thinking about how I could convince her to make friends in my town, because as far as I knew, she saw friends as good-for-nothing people which are only there for you when you have something interesting to tell. That wasn't the truth at all. Well, I had come to doubt myself nowadays since Jared, but I knew better than that. He was brainwashed, Abaddon's companion, and holding a grudge for such a stupid thing.

My mind clicked and there was picture flashing of someone. Grace. I didn't know why Selene hated her so much but they could be good friends. I had known Grace since forever, yeah she's kind of clingy, but she deeply cares for everyone, and is the best friend anyone could ever have. However, I also knew that this was a delicate matter, and pushing Selene into anything could backfire.
