Chapter 15. Night Outing
Miatta's POV
“If you want your collar, meet me at this spot tonight as the last horn is sounded. Come alone.”
His words resounded in my mind when I returned to my spot in the messy kitchen. Elena had questioned me and after I had explained myself, she had asked if I was okay. I was fine and I told her so. She allowed me to get back to work and I picked the brown rag meant for drying the slabs.
My survival depended on my ability to hide my unadorned neck from the sights of others and my long hair made that task a little bit achievable.
However, I remained on guard. No one could be trusted anymore, not concerning such a delicate issue. Ryan finding out so soon was a mistake. I could not afford to let it happen again.
It took two hours to finish up the disgusting job and we filed out again in a straight queue. I searched around me but there was no sign of Luke in the area. I resolved to ask him who he was the next time we met.
