Nicholas was just waking up when I walked into our bedroom, fresh from a shower. He scowled at my appearance. “Where’d you go?”

“Around,” I said. “Jordan and I ran through a park.” I wrinkled my nose. “I also inhaled an ungodly amount of exhaust fumes. How was your rest, sleepyhead?”

He eyed me. “Fine. Why are you so cheerful?”

“We have less than forty-eight hours together in Los Angeles. I think I convinced Jordan that the world won’t end if we drive through Hollywood and Beverly Hills after you all pick up the vehicles. We should take advantage.”

“Oh?” he said, shuffling into a sitting position. He rubbed his face with his hands and waited for me to continue.

“I understand where you’re coming from. You worry about me and want to protect me. I should be willing to at least listen to you,” I said, trying not to gag on the words I didn’t mean. “It’s something I’ll think about.”

“You’ll think about everything I said?”

I stopped myself from vomiting and smiled as I sat down at the edge of the bed and put my hand on his knee. Surviving this clusterfuck of destroying this hydra-like cult was of paramount importance. I’d deal with the pretty pictures in his head once we survived this madness.

“Yes. We can talk about everything when this is over and you’re home safe.”

Nicholas exhaled and smiled. “Thank the gods. When this is over, we’ll go on vacation. We’ll leave the world behind, and when we get back, we can start with a brand new you.”

Yup, that pretty picture in my head just burst into a million tiny pieces. The too-familiar rage swelled in my chest. I counted to ten, then to thirty, then to fifty, and lifted my head and smiled. “That’s fantastic.”
