“I agree with Koda,” Nisha chimes in. “If we are finally on his tail, we need to keep moving, catch up to him. We could end this within a week.” “The rest of you travel southeast. Kyra, I want to speak with you alone.” I say, commanding her attention. My anger quells under her curious…

“I noticed.” He whispers. “When?” I ask. This time my voice is softer as I try to keep from breaking. That day, thought him telling me be would never love me, then ignoring me broke my heart. But knowing he didn’t even realize I had left until days after I was gone is sout crushing….
