Marly POV
We had convinced Carson to stay at the hospital and gather his strength for whatever was to come today. I stayed with him, and we slept in each other’s arms for the first time in what felt like a month. It had not been that long, but being away from Carson for any amount of time would always feel like forever.
I could feel the tension rising in the vehicle we were driving in. Alex was driving with us, and was staring out the window, with his own thoughts. I had not had much of an opportunity to speak with Alex, but I knew I did not want to lose him. He had already grown to be important to me and the King and Queen.
Carson held my hand as he drove us towards the diner the Rogue King had referenced. Jeff and Sarah were in the car behind us, with additional warriors. And the King and Queen were in their own vehicle with their own warriors. We were surrounded by warriors in the front and the back of our convoy.
