Jace | Chap. 26

We reached camp a little under ten minutes but Zed's condition had already worsened by then; the guy was barely conscious and was loosing a worrying amount of blood. Didn't have to explain anything to the old hag when we arrived though, she didn't waste her time asking questions and immediately started treating his wound. Zak didn't even bother dressing back up and ran up to help her.

But of course, as soon as he noticed, Cade walked up to me with a furious look in his eyes. "Where's Ava?"

Even though I heard his question, I didn't bother to answer while I focused slipping my pants back on. Yet blondie was a persistent little shit and wouldn't let me go without answering his question.

"Where is she!?

- She was taken." I bluntly responded as I took my place near the recently started fire. I only replied cause I knew he wouldn't let me go until he was satisfied.

Cade's eyes staid onto me like glue, which almost made me smirk; big guy's gonna get mad.
