“Because if we’re stopped and they kill me, they could take you there and blow other people’s cover.”

“Cover?”

“Undercover. You know what that is?”

“Yes. I see. You’re undercover? You’re some kind of spy?”

“Something like that.”

“How can a man who is destined to rule the world be a spy?”

Cam chuckles and looks at me with love and amusement. “When you think about it, Princess, shouldn’t being a spy be a requirement for a man who is about to take over the world?”

“That’s why we need a new car.”

“How do you get one?”

“Like I got this one. I stole it.”

“You know how to steal cars? Who taught you to do that?”

“You really want to know?”

“Of course I do. I just asked you!”

“What is deprogramming, and who is her?”

“You. You are her. And deprogramming means to help someone unlearn wrong information.”

“Wrong information?”

“Makiah and I were in a group together. He was my teacher.”

“Your teacher?”

“Yes.”

“Like The Mother is my teacher?”
