Chapter 38
LADESSA.
"I just need to figure out who's messing up our lives," Kael said, and I tried to make sense of his words.
Our lives? Or did he mean my life? Did I understand him correctly? I was sure someone was trying to sabotage mine, but him?
I was still conversing with myself when he grabbed my hand and guided me out of the room. Everything after that became a blur.
As much as I wanted to talk about what he said, I remained mummed, as I didn't want any discussion in public. Hopefully, he could rent a car where we could talk privately.
"Ready to go home?" Kael asked after he gave me the takeout bag from the drive-through. I nodded my head, and he began maneuvering the car to drive away.
This was it. I needed to tell him about Miranda before we exited this city.
But just when I was about to open my mouth, his phone rang. We bought a charger before renting a car, and he charged it right away as soon as we sat inside this vehicle. He turned it on just before we got our food. "Landon..." He mumbled and picked it up.
He was not even able to say anything when Landon's voice came, and I could hear it clearly despite not having the phone on the speaker. "What happened to you? I've been calling you since yesterday." "Relax, I'm okay. My phone battery was empty, and I don't have any charger." Kael said nonchalantly before he put the phone in speaker mode and placed it back on the dashboard. "How's the pack?" "That should be the least of your worries. Did you find Adessa?"
"Yup. Alive and well." He turned to me and gave me a wink, and I discreetly clamped my legs together. Kael should stop winking at me.
"Hi, Landon." I butted in.
"Thank Goddess." I heard the relief in his voice, and it warmed my heart.
"So stop worrying. We're on our way home." Kael chuckled, but I saw his forehead crease.
