Joshua asked Xylia what was going on.

Xylia told him that Josie was heading back home.

“It’s been pretty hectic at the company lately. With Josie leaving, I’ll have to step in and handle things,” Xylia

said.

‘Richard’s in Jupiton right now,‘ Joshua mused, ‘But even if Xylia heads back to Norhill, the Sadler Brothers will keep her safe.

He nodded. “When are you planning to head back?”

“Tomorrow,” Xylia replied.

“I’ll take you tomorrow,” Joshua said, pulling Xylia into his arms.

Joshua wrapped Xylia in a tight embrace, holding her close.

“Once I wrap things up here, I’ll come find you,” he added.

Xylia hugged him back.


‘I know Joshua’s fighting a silent war right now. I really don’t want to be another thing weighing on his mind,’ Xylia thought.

“I’ll be waiting for you,” Xylia murmured, her voice soft and full of promise.

That evening, Joshua helped Xylia pack up her belongings. With everything settled, she booked her ticket to head back home to Norhill the very next day.

Late at night, Xylia’s mind kept drifting back to Josie, leaving her wide awake and anxious.

It was past midnight and she was still lying there, eyes open, staring into the dark.

Joshua felt her breathing grow uneven, so he reached out and gently pulled her into his arms. When he opened his eyes, he spotted her bright gaze glinting in the shadowy room, lit up by the city lights creeping in from outside.

“Can’t sleep?” he asked quietly, his breath brushing against her cheek.

His warm breath hovered against her cheek.

Xylia shifted, looping her arms around Joshua’s. After a moment’s hesitation, she blurted out what had been weighing on her heart.

“Josie seems to be in trouble,” she whispered.

Joshua’s slender fingers threaded gently through her hair. “What kind of trouble?” he asked softly.
