Chapter 47: The Offer

I barely slept a wink all night and woke up from a fitful sleep around 10am. The sun was streaming in through the thin curtains and the room felt too warm to stay in bed any longer.

“Good morning, baby.” Vazar smiled at me from the chair he was sitting in.

“Hey, morning. How long have you been awake?” I asked sliding my feet out of the duvet.

“A while now. I didn’t sleep so well.”

“Same. I guess I’m nervous about today. I don’t know how well Amaara will take what I am about to tell her.”

“It’s expected she will be in shock. But first, I need to get her out of the house and safely to you. I’m sure she will scream the place down when she sees me in the house.”

“You will need to be quick. Materialize into my room and then look for her. Once you find her, grab her and get out of there fast.”

“Yup, that’s the plan. Shall I go now?”

I checked the time and guessed my parents would be out searching for me with Uncle. “Yes. Go now. Good luck!”
