THE DAUGHTERS

A few hours after they left the academy for their mission, they arrived at the gate of the capital city. Katherine raised her hand and was about to wake Alex up. Before her hand could come in contact with his skin, his hand instinctively grabbed hers.

"Are we there yet?" Alex asked with his eyes closed.

Katherine flinched a little when Alex grabbed her hand, she wasn't expecting it. 'How paranoid do you have to be for you to have your guard up when your teammates are here to protect you?' She wondered.

"No, we are not there yet. But we are at the gates of the capital city." She answered.

"Just tell me when we are there. Emphasis on the word tell." Alex said and released her hand as he went back to sleep.

"Okay."

Not long after they arrived at the gates of a mansion that was unfamiliar to them. "Alex, we are here." This time it was Camron that alerted him.
