Katherine pov.. I was dealing with a headache as I flipped through the magazine on my desk, the updates causing me distress. The image of a woman kissing made my heart race. Nyx used to be a sweetheart like that until Scarlett created a scene. I made it clear that my feelings for Nyx came from deep within, yet she had the audacity to undermine my love. I was lost in thought when my mom entered the garden. I heard the crunch of dried flowers underfoot, and I knew she was approaching. "Katherine, are you okay?" "I'm fine, Mom. What do you want? I need some peace." I replied sharply. "That's why I left the room for you. I can't handle the noise and unnecessary shouting; it makes my head feel like it's going to explode." She scoffed, looking at me with a frown, her hand rubbing her jaw.
