Chapter 24 

“Charlotte..?” I spoke to her through my mind. “You can hear me?” She sounded so very weak. 

“I can. Are you okay? I was so worried I would never be able to hear you again.” I told her. 

“I don’t know what herbal mix he gave us but it nearly killed me. I will be here but I need rest. It will take time for me to regain my strength. Do not over do it and take it easy.” Was the last I heard from

“That sounds pretty great. Where were we?” He asked. 

“I’m not sure, I have never been there before.” I put a confused look on my face. 

“Ah must be my home city then. You haven’t been there before.” He responded. “Oh, maybe. It seemed beautiful.” I smiled. 

“It is a very beautiful city with a river that splits right through, clear water. So many parks and flowers with cobblestone pathways. I can not wait to show you.” He leaned to me and placed his hand in mine. His touch made my stomach turn. I hated it. Charlotte gagged inside and turned away shielding herself from
