Thor picked up on the first ring. Like he had been waiting for me long before I made the decision to place it.“Gianne,” he said. “Didn’t think you’d call again.” There wasn't a hint of surprise in his tone.I stayed seated on the edge of the bed, phone pressed against my ear, while Mia remained across the room, watching without interrupting. “Well,” I said, keeping my tone steady, “here I am.”“What do you want?”“I need out of the country.” The line went quiet. “I need everything arranged tonight,” I continued. “Documents, travel, somewhere to stay until things settle.”“And how are you planning to pay me?”I gripped my phone harder. “I have intel on Trinity.”The silence stretched longer this time. “You know what you’re stepping into,” he said after a while.“I do.”“And you’re still choosing it?”“I’m choosing not to stay here.”A faint sound passed through the line.

I ran through the house getting ready as fast as I could, grabbed two slices of bread without thinking, rushed out and got to the bus stop still trying to catch my breath.I sat down and leaned back for a second, just a second, before getting off at my stop and fixi

He made an attempt to move the suitcase to his side, but Orion stopped him and grabbed it."You missed your chance" Orion gave him a burning glare, which made the man lower his eyes instantly.He held my hand, and we walked out of there.

I’m sorry,” I said, looking down.“And thank you for tonight,” I added.“Lucian saved you, not me. Don’t follow Lucian around like that.”“It’s…” I paused. “I wasn’t following him, I just got it wrong.”“Get in the car. I’ll take you to the hospital. You’re wounded.”“It’s fine, I’ll just patch it up,” I said.“I can’t stand seeing bruises on people.”I sat down and fastened the seatbelt. Bruises would be normal if he deals with people like that.
