‘It’s almost over,’ I thought pointedly.

My body was still buzzing from the adrenaline that cycled through me from earlier. When that text came in, it was like I was hit with another jolt of energy.

I couldn’t keep the corners of my mouth from curving upward into a prideful smile. I knew it was far too early to jump to any sort of conclusion, and that anything could happen to screw up the plan, but I was ready for this to be over.
Cat was quick to grab her bag and follow me out to the car. We headed straight to the warehouse without wasting any more time. I could tell that Cat was just as tense as I was.
