Early the next morning, Thalia was awakened by a telephone call.

She groggily pressed answer, her voice heavy with sleepiness. “Hello? Who is it?”

“Thalia, you need to come to the hospital to see Drake.” James‘ urgent, worried voice came through the line. “Drake nearly died, do you know that?”

Thalia nestled closer to Asher, like an affectionate kitten seeking warmth.

So he had anticipated this call eagerly.

However, when Thalia heard he had nearly died, not only did she offer not a single word of concern, but she responded with such cold–hearted words.
