Chapter 20

Alex

The fact that Eric said people heard screams like someone was being tortured did not sit well with me. Layla looks just as concerned but Tempest looked downright miserable, she was fighting back the tears. But true to form she focused on what she could do to save Dominic or help save him. We got our stuff together and just as the storm finally broke, we set off. We had no idea where to go but as Eric talked about a village, we said off in the direction of the village. We did not however use a portal as neither I nor Layla would know where to go, and then we might end up like we did with our last portal jump; dangling off a cliff.

Eric was kind of good company and even though he flirted with Tempest every chance he got. He seemed to be doing it just to get her mind off what Dominic might be facing, he even made her laugh a couple of times.

“So, love, tell me how did you and your boyfriend meet?”
