82 Stop Dreaming

Lazarus traced away from her room and Maeve let out a ragged breath. Without changing, she went to the bed and closed her eyes. She had sent orders to the rogues to find Emma and bring her back. She had asked them to instill fear in her to the extent that dared not think of running away. Maeve had given orders and used Lazarus's money to give to a rogue group. That group sent the information throughout their web. And only one group could find Emma. 

Lazarus had traced her to that cave and she felt a jolt of happiness seeing Emma's blood over there. But Lazarus had killed all the rogues. That was scary. She wished she knew the location of the cave.

When Emma opened her eyes, she found herself in the bed with Lazarus. He was tracing his fingers up and down her body, his face focused on something so hard that it was like a stone. She could feel the electricity in that touch.
