I bet it’s Drago.
My heart beats faster. Is there a chance I’m getting out?
Following the guard, it’s hard to not want to bolt past him to get there faster.
When the door opens, and Drago’s huge frame is standing just outside of the secured area, I let myself get hopeful.
When he folds himself in the seat across from me, the tiniest twitch of his lip betrays him.
“I’ve heard that everything has been taken care of.” His palms flatten on the metal table.
I want to jump up and down and scream at him to let me go.
Instead, I nod.
“I’ve heard that next Tuesday is going to be exciting.” He pins me with his icy blue eyes in a hard stare.
Is he trying to tell me something?
“Yes?” I encourage him to continue with a dip of my chin.
“The northern lights. Explosive, even. From what I’ve heard, you can see the show best from the west wing at midnight.” He doesn’t blink.
That’s the opposite end from where my cell is.
But with the little trick that the Butcher taught me about the locks, I have a chance of being there.
“I love them. Makes me feel like I’m back home.” My head tilts as I watch his reaction.
His smile grows, showing the whites of his teeth.
“Until we meet again.” Standing, he tosses me a subtle wink, then raps on the window with his knuckle to the guard.
I guess he isn’t so bad.
It’s a long ass night waiting until I’m back in the yard with the twins.
“Good news, boys. We’re gonna see some fireworks. Now here’s the details.”
