41 Who Said She Couldn't Have It All?

Christian made Avery less stressed overall. The whole secret identity juggling thing was plenty stressful but she wasn't about to admit to that. Not when it would be putting a nail in her own coffin. 

"Jorge's cover is more secure than yours and his role is less important," Angelo reminded her. "If Christian ever prevents you from doing your job, you have to break up with him."

"I will! I told you not to worry about it. I know where my priorities lie."

She had been taking things one day at a time trying to make everything work out. Endless justifications had gotten her to where she was but she did ultimately know what her priorities were. She was the daughter of a villain and had taken up his mantle. She was going to see his mission through to the end. 

It was going to break her heart if she had to leave Christian. She was going to have to do everything in her power to make sure that didn't happen.
