“I missed you, too,” I whispered, closing my eyes. “Are you doing okay?”
“Yes,” she whispered back. “Don’t worry about me.”
“What’s going on?” asked Nathan, glaring at Ethan. “Why in the hell are you here?”
A door opened up in the back of the suite and Victor walked in, drying his hands with a towel. “He’s here because I asked him to be.”
“You’re alive?”
