Chapter 6 Wren went back to the small condo she'd bought before the wedding . It wasn't big - just a one - bedroom - and it had been empty for a while , the air thick with the faint smell of dust . She cracked a window . The blast of cold air helped clear her head a little . Her body was screaming with exhaustion . The pain in her stomach and the weakness from the blood loss made her feel unsteady on her feet . She washed her face , swallowed two painkillers , and collapsed onto the bed . No tears , no tossing and turning .
The sheer weight of it all dragged her instantly into a deep , dreamless sleep . The next morning , her alarm blared . She pried her heavy eyelids open . A sliver of sunlight cut through the curtains , stinging her eyes . Her body felt like it was falling apart . The dull ache in her stomach was still there , and in the morning light , her face looked almost transparent . She'd only taken three days off . Today , she had to go to work . She stared at the ceiling for a moment , then slowly pushed herself up to wash her face and put on makeup .
She was so pale it took an extra layer of concealer and blush just to look human . In the mirror , her eyes were still a little puffy , but her gaze was calm . She put on a professional but comfortable outfit , grabbed her purse , and headed out . The subway was a hot , crowded mess . She found a corner to lean against and closed her eyes . Waves of pain washed over her , but strangely , her mind was quiet . She wasn't checking her phone every five seconds , waiting for a text that would never come . She wasn't wondering if he was busy , if he'd be home for dinner .
