Loren POV
Alex was afraid of something, but he wasn’t telling me because he didn’t want me to worry. It was more than just the loss of energy from healing his damaged body after the Moonstone explosion.
He knew that I could feel he was holding something back, so I decided not to push him until he felt he was ready to tell me.
But it worried me to no end, wondering what he was afraid of.
I opened a small window into the pocket dimension Alex and Riley had created to hold Delilah and tossed in a few fruits for our hostage before closing it again. I was glad that I didn’t have to see her face anymore. It made it easier to get ready to move out once we received the signal from Riley and Jamaia.
Alex entered the living room, where I had gathered all our supplies.
“Any word from Riley and Jamaia yet?” I asked him, planting a kiss on his lips.
“They are just about ready to leave,” he said as he kissed me back, “we should start heading out as well.”
