Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Eight

“Thane, we need to talk!” I called out; I knew someone was in the room, and just then I spotted Bailey seated on the couch, wrapped in a robe… Thane’s robe.

I swallowed.

“Elder Bailey, what are you doing here?” I asked, and my voice sounded shaky even to my own ears. She took a drag from the cigarettes she held.
