We take Alaric's private exit, the one he uses when he needs to escape the Palace and do his own thing. It leads us to the river that runs through the center of our land. We mask our scent as we make our escape to the human world. As we walk through Hyde Park to one of the stiffeners safe houses I pull out my phone and book us into a hotel for the night. I book one in Wales I mean we can't stay this close it isn't safe and we need to cover our tracks. Plus I have a safe house there one that nobody knows about. As we approach the safe house I use my enhanced sense of smell and hearing to check if anyone was here. Thankfully the moon goddess was smiling upon us. I take out the keys for a red Renault Captur jumping in the drivers seat. To say Alaric's face was a picture is an understatement.
