"Who was it this time?" Asher asked, his gaze boring into hers with unnerving intensity. He looked like he was a breath away from committing murder.
Violet shook it off and sat up, stretching her sore limbs before answering. "It was my brother. Micah."
"What does he want?" Asher asked grimly. The fact he hasn't asked how Micah infiltrated her dream proved that he knew what his ability was.
"He came to check up on me." Violet paused, then added, "He wants me to return to the academy. He says it's the safest place for me."
Asher's jaw tightened. "No place is truly safe but he's right. Baron can't touch you there, neither can Elijah. Not without risking public eyes or sentiment."
Violet's face fell slightly. "But we can't leave yet. I haven't spent enough time with the others. The mate bond still hasn't triggered."
