Gabriel’s smile deepened. He murmured something low, causing Theo to fall silent immediately.

“I don’t appreciate dealing with fools. But since you’re Jane’s cousin, I’ll let it go this time. If there’s a next time…” Gabriel warned.

He didn’t finish before Theo quickly replied, “Gabriel, don’t worry. That recording was all my doing nothing to do with you. I just lost my head for a moment, so don’t take it personally.”

He added, “If that’s all, Gabriel, I’ll be hanging up now. I’ve got a few things I need to do.”

Without waiting for Gabriel’s response, Theo hastily ended the call.

Gabriel set his phone down and looked out the window into the dark night, his eyes soft with thought. Soon, he’d finally be able to be with Nyla.
