CHAPTER 123 Baby Steps

  ~ JESSE ~

  Cazz was gone the next morning when I woke up.

  When I realized he was gone, I sat quickly, heart racing. My body wanted to panic. But the moment I was awake he was in my head.

  'Good morning, mate.'

  'Oh, Cazz. Thank God. I thought you'd run away again.'

  'No, sadly I was called out of the furs by Ghere. The throne needed me. But I'll come to you as soon as I can. Are you meeting Maya this morning?'

  'Yes.'

  'Good.'

  There was a heavy pause like he wasn't sure what to say then. I was already pushing out of the furs and hurrying to the closet to dress before the servants arrived. So I just threw the first question at him that arrived in my mind.

  'Did you find anything out about my brother yet?'
