Chapter Sixteen

If Utopia didn’t have the memories of Liam to fall back on and cling to, she was certain being back in the hospital with Clementine glowering at her would drive her crazy. Apparently, nearly getting killed wasn’t a good enough reason to want some sort of distraction. Apparently, nearly getting her killed by leaving her with Cooper wasn’t enough for Clementine to feel bad.

Apparently, Clementine thought that Utopia had purposefully caused a hormonal imbalance to seduce Liam.

Utopia was so spitting mad at that she refused to work with her at all. After two hours arguing about it, Clementine had backed off, and Dr. Erica Bennet had been called in. She wasn’t as hostile toward Utopia. She was also much quieter, though, which left Utopia trying to navigate her own thoughts.

Liam, of course, was at the forefront. She couldn’t stop thinking about what he’d done and how it could utterly destroy his career with the Blaze Ops. The hormonal imbalance that Clementine had found wasn’t enough to make him act out this way; it was so slight, it probably just came from a night of not sleeping properly. Utopia had worried over it for quite a while before she was satisfied that his actions were not because of that.

Which meant he wanted to. He had put being with her, giving her what she needed at that moment, over his own career. Why? What sort of man did that?

The big question was, did she regret it? And she had to say—no. She regretted the timing. She regretted that she had these questions from it. She regretted that she couldn’t ask Liam outright, because they were not permitted anywhere near each other. But actually sleeping with him, holding him in her arms, feeling the strength of him as he finished into her?

No regret.

The door burst open, making her jump. Clementine stalked in, scowling at her before stopping near Erica. They started to talk to each other in low voices that Utopia ignored.

Because the door had been left open. Because there were no guards in sight. Because across the hall was an open window.

Her heart started to pound. She still had heard nothing more about Aiden. She still didn’t know if they were going to try to rescue him.

Utopia acted without thinking. Before she even knew what she was doing, she had shifted. In a single bound, she left her clothes behind and slashed open the screen. Behind her, Erica let out a shout. Utopia squirmed through the opening and sprang from the window ledge. She twisted mid-air to land on the trunk of a tree and jumped off it to the ground.

She dashed over the ground toward the walls that surrounded the Academy property. Her ears flattened against her skull as she ran. Liam was going to be punished for what he did. Nobody else believed her when she said she didn’t want what was happening; nobody else believed her when she said she needed Aiden back. Nobody else was even trying to help her.
