Chapter 322-His Drunk Brother
Helanie:
"That seems scary. I’m so glad Professor Kaye was there to help you out," Lamar said, throwing a stone away after I finished telling them part of what I went through in Rune’s dream prison—obviously leaving out the whole kiss and mate bond thing with Kaye.
We sat on the ground in a circle, trying to think of a way to help Lucy.
"But—now we know how to get out of it. All we need to do is find the rose in the dream prison, which is our way out, and just destroy it," Gavin still hoped this was the way to help Lucy out of her coma because it was the only thing we knew of. Finding another way would take too much time.
"That’s the issue, Gavin. It’s not that easy to find yourself, let alone that rose. And Rune will be even stricter now that Kaye and I escaped his grasp," I wanted him to understand how dangerous Rune could be.
"Besides, didn’t she tell you how it’s done? Lucy can’t sniff out the rose herself, and it doesn’t work any other way," Lamar helped him understand why this plan wouldn’t work either.
"I just can’t believe she’s lying in the hospital because of me, and I—" Gavin broke down for the fifth time. Lamar had to hug him while giving me a sad look. He really felt Gavin’s pain, and so did I.
"Gavin," I slid closer to him and wrapped my arm around him. Lamar and I stayed with him, hugging him as he cried his heart out. After he was done, and they were ready to leave, I called out to Gavin one last time. The thing was, he became my friend before Lamar, and I could tell it was bothering him that he was now left out completely.
"Gavin, are you and Salem okay? I just know she has been trying to reach out to you," I wanted to rebuild our friendship, but it would take some time—especially after he manipulated Lucy so much.
