Chapter 431- Anaya Jakes
After landing at Sangua Airport, the first thing Aniya did, was to head to a motel. Her job interview was lined up with Star Corps the next day and she wanted to be fully prepared for it.
Liam and Lisa had come to the airport to drop her. Now sitting in a cab, going to the motel, she rolled down the window and took out her face.
The breeze was cool against her face. Aniya closed her eyes and let it brush against her face, tangling her bob-styled hair in wild strands.
She felt alive as if the air itself was whispering promises of new beginnings.
With the loud honk of a car, she opened her eyes and took in her surroundings. The modest buildings, colorful signs advertising local eateries, and small shops.
Finally, the cab pulled up in front of a small motel with a flickering neon sign that read, "Rest Haven."
After paying the driver, she grabbed her suitcase and stepped into the lobby. The old man sitting behind the desk with round glasses perched on his nose looked up from his register and offered her a warm smile.
"Welcome to the Rest Haven," he took off his reading glasses, "You must be Anaya Jakes?"
For a wild moment, she wanted to negate the man and correct him ... No! She was not Anaya. She was Aniya.
But this was Liam’s idea to change her name so that Alaric, Valerie, or Maxwell wouldn’t be able to trace her.
Aniya nodded at him, and he turned around to take off a key from the hook, "Room 3 is ready for you."
