Chapter Twenty-one— See You Soon Ivanna’s POV The packhouse was bustling with activities. A bit more than usual. I was drowned in an ocean of duties that I barely found time to catch my breath. It didn't help that Mary had her eyes on me, not giving me a slight chance to stretch my aching body or take a little break. I dared to stand and do a little twist, but she was already yelling. "Hey.

I stood, ignoring the pain resting in my joints.
