Chapter 64

KAEL.

"How much time do we have?" I asked Erika as I put on my shoes.

"I don't know." She replied while helping Adessa to zip up our bags.

"Adessa, the pouch." I reminded her.

"I have it."

"Where is Sasha?" I asked.

"In her room. I will deal with her later. You need to leave now. Don't use the trail you took going here, as I'm sure that's the same one they will come from. Do you still remember that secret exit I showed you before?"

I nodded. It had been decades, but I knew where it was. I just hoped the landmarks hadn't changed yet.

"I'm sorry. I wished I had seen this coming. I knew she would never hurt Kael, so I thought..." Her tears fell again, and I felt the misery inside her.

I should have told her about all the other things Sasha did to the women in my life. Then, maybe we could have avoided this. But more than Erika, this was all my fault. I should have seen this coming. She would never hurt me, but she surely didn't have any reservations about the women in my life.

But I had no time to discuss this with Erika or even to console her. We've got to get moving.

"Did you know if she told them I was with Adessa?" I kept asking questions as we walked in a hurry down the corridor, my hand gripping Adessa's hand and the other holding the duffel bag.

"No. She specifically told me she just told them it was Adessa here, not you. I don't know how she would explain why you were also here, but she went on to say she would never hurt you, and it was Adessa who needed to answer for her crimes."
