Chapter 74: Things Best Not Forgotten

A hand fell on Nyrissa's shoulder, and she didn't have to guess the owner of it. She forced herself to take a deep breath to try to calm down before meeting Ryan's gaze.

"You alright?" he asked quietly.

"As well as I can be," Nyrissa told him, then turned to Sam. "Did Mandy happen to say if she saw who had broken in?"

Sam's eyes narrowed ever so slightly as she searched Nyrissa's face. It was all too obvious that she absolutely did not believe Nyrissa's calm demeanor. Nyrissa could see the indecision on Sam's face and knew she was trying to decide if she was going to say any more.

"Sam, please. I need to know," Nyrissa begged her earnestly.

Sam grumbled in frustration and ran her hand through her short hair. "Mandy did not tell us much. She was frantic and fighting with the doctors when we called. We're hoping to get more from her when she gets here."
