And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Chapter 48: Once Upon A Time In Mexico

Taking my seat on the plane, I watched as Damian got himself situated. The swivel of the seats moved as he took his place across from me and continued barking out orders.

“Hey, make sure that Jose meets us at the airport when we land. I need to speak with him about something else.” Damian tells his Gamma, who nods and quickly exits.

“Whose that?” I asked with curiosity as his gaze turned to mine and the airplane door closed.

“Who, Jose?” Damian questioned as I nodded. “Oh. He is just a friend.”

“A friend?” I smirked, “Well, I look forward to meeting this friend.”

Things had been different between us since the situation with my father and Allison. Damian didn’t seem as hostile towards me as he once had been and even though I was keeping my guard up, I was curious.

The roar of the engines came to life and before I knew it, the plane was headed down the tarmac. This was putting me one step closer to finding James and the others.

If my life was to get better then I needed each one of them at my side to make it happen because the way my father and Allison acted towards, me had me worried.

Allison didn’t seem like the type of person to easily give up on something.

“Are you okay?” Damian’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts, and turning to him, I smiled softly.

“Yeah, sorry. I’m just all over the place.”

Nodding, he pulled out a file from his briefcase and sorted through the photos inside. Handing them over, I saw who lined them. They were photos of James, Hale, and Talon in their current locations.

Just seeing the photos brought a smile to my face and caused tears to brim my eyes. “Oh wow-”

“I thought you might like to see them.” He replied, as I chuckled.
