CHAPTER 47  Heroic skill 

  Cavin's POV

  My phone buzzed just as I was reviewing the latest reports from Nathan, On Natalie and Daniel's meeting in a restaurant. The pictures displayed that they seem to be comfortable. Their plans were getting bolder, but right now, my focus was pulled to the name flashing across my screen: Eliza.

  I picked up, trying to keep my tone casual despite the anticipation that sparked through me. "Hey, princess. Everything alright?"

  A huff echoed on the other end, and I could practically see her rolling her eyes. "Not really, Cavin," she muttered. "I may or may not be stranded on the side of the road."

  I leaned back, stifling a chuckle. "Stranded, huh? Where's Natalie?"

  "Drove off after a few choice words and left me here to 'find my own way," she replied, clearly irritated. "So, are you going to pick me up or let me hitchhike?"
