When I turn to look over at her she’s grinning at me like she’s finding the pair of us entertaining. “If your gift is still at Nyx’s, I can transport it here now,” she offers, my eyes widening in surprise.
“I’m assuming it’s still there,” Rhea adds, clearly hearing my mom’s offer and I nod at my mom.
With a snap of her fingers, I feel a small weight in my free hand and I know exactly what it is instantly. “Thank you,” I murmur, watching my mom nod and turn back to the kitchen as I look down at the object in my hand.

“Yeah.”
