We arrive in the hallway of Aaliyahâs hotel. We pass a couple of little old ladies who are coming down the hallway. Rag and I smile at them, and they giggle adorably as they traverse their way toward the elevators.
âWe still got it.â
âOr at least one of us does.â He chortles.
We stand in front of the ornate window. I would knock but that would look strange to any humans that might step out of their doors while we are standing here. I shake my head and laugh.
âWhat has you laughing, Baz? Be kind enough to share with the class.â
âI donât know her mobile number, nor can I just knock on her âdoorâ as, you can see, it isnât so much a door as it is a window.â
âNo, it is most certainly a doorway, Baz, but are you sure she is supposed to be home?â
âYes, Rag, she doesnât leave unless she has toâ¦â Rag cocks his head expecting me to explain, âitâs a long story, and I am sure she can tell you.â I have already earned her ire. I glance around wondering if before we âknockâ I should remove my shirt. Heaven knows that she might at least see that I meant every word in my note.
âThere is something in the rooms beyond but itâs not your Princess.â
I snap my head in Ragâs direction. âWhat the fuck?!â I whisper Aaliyahâs true name and drag Rag through the veil.
I am bracing for a fight. If Aaliyahâs step-monster or any of his goons have breached the wards I will dismember them. But there is no one here. Not the Umbra, not his goons, and not Aaliyah.
âWell, that was anticlimactic.â
âI thought you said there was someone here?â
Rag feels the air and furrows his brow. âI would have sworn there was.â
I walk around the rooms, Aaliyahâs mobile lays on the mahogany table with the bouquet of flowers I sent and a red envelope with her name on it in a script I recognize. Inside it is a hand scrawled note that isnât from me. I know I have no right to, but I read it.
Sorry about the quick exit Princess,
