**ADDIE'S POV**
After our private moment was over, Nolan led me back into the room with the others. The nightgown swishing and dragging behind me as I walked. I wasn't scared at all, not anymore. And I wasn't wondering if I was making the right decision or anything like that. I knew that this was the right thing for me to do.
"Are you ready, Addie?" Callum called once I was back to the center of the room with him. He even took my hand and pulled me away from Nolan. I saw that in my absence, someone had prepared several things that hadn't been there before.
"Yes, I am ready." My voice was calm and steady, not an ounce of hesitation in it at all. I could tell that my calmness was making Callum feel more at ease in this situation as well.
"That is good." He guided me over to a chair that had been placed in the center of the room.
