The Assassin's Redemption V
“All I can tell ye, lass, is that sometimes things are not what they seem. Perhaps ye should go to Jaxon’s room and relax. He has some books on top of his bedside drawer and some more interesting things inside of it that you can look through.”
I lift a curious brow at his suggestive tone. But before I can ask what he means, he sits back down, opens his laptop, and begins to type away.
Glancing back in the direction of Jaxon’s bedroom door, I look at Scotty, then look back. Not thinking any further about it, I head to Jaxon’s room and sit by his bedside table. Like Scotty said, there are books on his table. To my surprise, the books are medical texts. Reaching for one of the books, I look it over and frown in puzzlement. A Treatment On Paralysis, Neuralgia, And The Human body. How odd, I think, as I turn the book over in my hand. Placing it back on the table, I open the drawer and sort through it. Scotty said there were interesting things inside of it. I know I shouldn’t be snooping around Jaxon’s things, but Scotty’s
cryptic words piqued my interest.
