Chapter 110: Better Than Water

After I'd given Darius permission, he used his Telekinesis Instinct to lock all the doors around us, push the meal off the table then replaced me with said meal.

I don't know what has overcome me, but...I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Even Mom and Burke?

I drown out this voice trying to eat away at me and focus on Darius.

Darius and I make our way into one of many jeeps surrounding his courtyard.

And though I want to protest about taking a jeep as opposed to taking a normal sleek car, I'm too absorbed with Darius, what we just did and, how he hasn't let go of my hand since.

I feel the steady thumping of my heart and I feel my blood flowing rapidly through my veins.

This is...nice.

The jeep takes off, and I try to turn my mind to other matters.

Like, where we are headed.

The campsite chosen for The Clawing.

In but a few minutes, I'll be going up against Lunas from all over America.
