Chapter 10

Emerald got to the house where she and the team stayed. She was tired from the whole incident but she tried not to show it.

“Where have you been?” Jim asked.

“She probably went sightseeing again,” Sophia said, laughing.

Emerald wasn’t concerned about them. She was concerned about the one guy that could read her mind as he created her. The one guy that could tell something was wrong, and no matter how she tries to deny it, he ends up making her tell the truth. All she wants right now is to avoid Evan as much as she can. She just wants to go to bed and sleep the night away at least that would make her regain her lost strength back.

“Hey, sugar,” Adam said, touching her on the shoulder. “Where have you been?”

“Out,” she replied bluntly. She scanned the room, looking for Evan but he was nowhere in sight. So she decided to ask Adam.

“Where’s Evan?”

Adam didn’t like it when he was with her, and she just kept bringing Evan into the picture.
