*Zariah*
I can’t believe what Micah has just said to me. He’s giving me permission to start looking for the treasure again? Why?
I don’t ask. Instead, I nod and ask, “Can you go out to the caves with me? When I was out there before Oscar attacked me, I thought I saw something that might tell us exactly where it is.” One of the places Grandma Zarry suspected might be the location was Winding Winds Trail. I wanted to know if the picture on the map looked like the trail to Micah as well.
He looks around. I have no idea why. For most of this conversation, he’s been stuck on the fact that we just had sex, and he couldn’t stop staring at my boobs. But now, his head is swiveling around like he’s looking for an exit in a blazing movie theater.
“Okay,” Micah finally breathes. “I have a few things I need to do here first, though. Aren’t you supposed to be at training?”
