Bab 59: Chapter 22

"Where are we going?" It was the first thing Adara had said since they'd left Baba Yaga's shop. Ensconced in the backseat of the car with Stefan driving - casting curious looks in the rearview - they'd fled before trouble could arrive. Given all that had happened, it didn't take much intelligence to realize that Adara was in no shape to fight anyone tonight.

Alas, Titus feared she was her own worst enemy. Despite the tie between them being broken, he could see the gears in her mind turning and churning. He could almost predict what she planned next.

She'd try and leave. It was up to him and Logan to make sure she couldn't. To convince her that they would stand by her side.

"How are you feeling?" he asked, leaning forward.

"Okay." She shrugged.

"Have a drink." Logan retrieved a water bottle from the mini fridge and offered it.

Titus inwardly grumbled. He should have thought of that, especially since she grasped it and greedily sucked the fluid.
