The white SUV pulled right in front of the dented car. Soon my phone buzzed. I knew it was Lucien, he wasn't moving around in the Maybach today.
I grabbed the door lock. Kena didn't stop me this time, I guess he had learned the lesson that slap was meant to dish out.
Just as my feet hit the ground, I turned, door stood open in my hand.
“Thank you for coming through… They could have leeched me.” I knew I owed him that much, even when I still struggled to believe it was a mere coincidence for him to be there, and at the time. Well, things like that are achievable.
He nodded, eyes fixed on me, soft and tender. I hadn't seen him that calm before, I guess there's always a first. I surely do have enough gist for Mara, but that's after she had explained why she left me in the middle of that
