I had to go back to collect my things and sword. Last time, when I escaped, Gabriel was with me but this time, I was escaping alone and had nowhere to go so I had to think about my safety, too.

He wiped my tears off. “Look at me, Matty,” he said softly, making me look into his jade–green eyes which were full of concern for me.

“You’re not alone. I’m with you,” he said firmly and I nodded before hugging him tightly.

“You should be in the human town. What are you doing here?” I asked perplexed.
