The heat has not melted the ice around my heart. Why has Liam kept Letoya’s box from me all these years? I’m not certain I can handle the truth but now it’s staring me in the face. Maximus risked everything to hide in my room tonight, but that isn’t the part that baffles me. It’s his hope that crept in his eyes when he saw the box in my hands, which gutted me.
It was hotter than the fires of hell outside. Valcrum wasn’t a forgiving spiritual being, and once you messed up you were screwed. I often wondered if hell was really the place of eternal suffering or was Earth really hell. Here on Earth we exist and we die. Xundar is where life exists and happiness is imminent.
Shaking my head, I focused on my task. It wasn’t smart being out in the streets distracted. Tokyo Lane was empty.
