“The last thing I need you commenting on is my luck,”
Adrian snapped, and then sighed. It would figure Rose
would be sleeping during the one time he’d sobered up
enough to make contact through dreams. Being clear
minded really was not his favourite thing to be right now,
and having to talk to the one guy who always seemed to
come between him and Rose? Not improving his mood.
“Look, just know that they’re speeding up the process of
nominations for the next king or queen. Time’s cutting a
lot shorter than we thought, you guys need to be ready to
run at any moment if things push forward as quickly as
they’re trying to do it.” 

Despite  the  other’s  biting  reply,  Dimitri
all   but  radiated  calmness  as  he waited
for  the  true meaning of  this nightly visit
to shine through   –   which it did,  just a
couple  of  seconds  later.     His face was
unreadable     as     his    mind     churned,
weighing and  measuring Adrian’s words
and  what   they   would   mean  for   their
entire mission.    With a curt nod, he said,
“We are at a safe place right now,      but I
will keep that in mind. Thank you.”   Pure
business laced and lined his words;  they
couldn’t  afford  anything  more personal.
