“Me too.”
They both love Reign now. Especially Poe, after I told them how he gave me a phone with reading apps on it.
Because someone gave her something as well.
A sewing machine. Apurplesewing machine.
Because Poe not only loves fashion but she loves tomakefashion too. As in, make dresses.
And so someone — a man — who cares about her deeply gave her a sewing machine. He also happens to be her guardian turned school principal — yup, our principal; Principal Alaric Marshall.
She used to hate him too, actually.
Long story there, but now it looks like that hatred is gone and something else has taken its place. Something that makes my friend smile and blush more often.
Anyway, it just warms my heart to see that my friends like Reign. That like me, they finally see the truth.
“That’s why I need your help,” I tell them. “He’s blocked my number.”
“What, why?” Jupiter asks.
I shake my head, my heart squeezing in my chest. “Probably because Lucas said something to him.”
If Lucas said something to me, I’m pretty sure he said something tohim. I’m pretty sure it happened the night Reign convinced Lucas to give me a call. While I can’t say exactly what went down, I know that it must’ve been horrible.
It must’ve been awful.
Because ever since Lucas’s ultimatum, I’ve been trying to call Reign but I can’t.
I can’t call. I can’t text.
Which means I’m blocked.
“I need to talk to him,” I tell both my friends. “I need to tell him that I’m not doing it. That I’m not giving up on him. It’s not happening.”
Not only that, I’m going tomakeLucas forgive Reign.
I know what he’ll say.
I know he’ll curse a bunch of times and tell me to not worry about it.
But I don’t care. Like I don’t care about Lucas’s bogus ultimatum.
But first.
“I have to find him and I need your help to do that.” I look at Poe. “He’s friends with Callie’s husband, right? Reed? Can you talk to her? Can you ask her if Reed knows where Reign is? He’s staying at a motel. But I don’t know which one and I need to find him.”
Poe covers my hand. “Consider it done. I’m going to get you all the information you need to track him down.”
CHAPTERTWENTY-FOUR
Ledger Thorne, with his long wavy hair and his glinting dark eyes, is a force of nature.
A dark, angry force of nature.
And his attention — more like aggression — is focused on another force of nature, Tempest Jackson.
If someone had told me that I’d be witnessing the fury of these two forces, say, this morning, I’d have said that they were crazy.
