Chapter 31

Inside the castle, I nibbled nervously on the strawberries on my way back up to my room. When I got to my bed, I sprawled across the bed and pulled out the phone. I wondered if it I could use it to phone my mother again and decided against it.

I’ll be home soon, I’ll talk to her then.

Night time rolled around faster then I had imagined and before I knew it, I was awakened by the suns rays of light beaming through my window. I looked around in a sudden panic wondering if I had feel asleep before hiding the phone. It was by my face, under the pillow. I checked to see if I had any missed calls from Luna but I didn’t.

My shower took longer then it usually had and I thought about how this time could really be the last time that I would be in this castle. If everything went right, Dimitri would meet me at the tunnel with the castle car at around eight and from there we would make our way to Oakridge, where Luna would be waiting for us.
