Damn. I knew something was up.

And for once I am not glad that I was right, but it's to late now, my only thought now is to get her to my room safe.

While I walk towards the elevator, I make make sure to go fast enough so no one thinks about asking questions.

When we're finally in the elevator, Violet is still tucked against my chest with her eyes closed but her breath coming out evenly again. And I try to resist and press a kiss to her head.

But I can't, so I do it and press a light kiss to the top of her head.

The door opens and I walk into my room and make my way to my bed.

With one hand I push the covers aside and set Violet down onto my bed.

„If you want to you can open your eyes now." I whisper.

Her eyes slowly flutter open and I take a seat on the edge of the bed.

„How are you?" I ask softly.

„I think I'm okay, I don't know, I haven't had a panic attack for a while now." she breathes out.

„Do you know what caused it? And if you do, do you want to tell me?" I ask, trying not to overstep.

„Well, theses past weeks have been very stressful for me and I didn't really have some time to calm down, and something happened to me while I was on a horse 2 years ago, and I'm still struggling to get on a horse and to stay on there for a long time." she responds, the words rushing out of her.

„But none of this is your fault, Jaren. I could've just said no but I really thought I could do it." she quickly adds.

I let out a deep breath, reach my hand out and put it on top of hers.

„That doesn't matter right now, what really matters is that you're safe and okay. Do you want something, maybe some tea?" I ask, my thumb going over her hand.

„I think some tea would be good now, thank you." she smiles softly.

„Okay, I'll be right back." I say while getting up and then walking down to the kitchen.

„Hello,Lisa." I greet our personal chef. She gives me a quick smile. „Would you be able to put on the kettle? I would like to do some tea." I ask.

„Sure, I'll do it right away." she says.

While she fills up the kettle, I go and grab two teabags and mugs for Violet and myself.

After putting those out, I step away for a quick second, pull out my phone and call Easton.

„Hey, man. What's up?" Easton greets me.

„Hey, I know this might be out of the blue, but I need you to tell my parents that I'm not feeling good and won't attend dinner today, and tell them that Violet won't be there as well." I rush out.
