Evelin's POV
Allen and I touched down in Slaton, Thornvale's second-biggest city.
"Did you book a hotel yet?" I asked him.
"Yeah, same one as you," Allen said.
I lifted an eyebrow. "How'd you figure out where I was staying?"
"Selina contacted me earlier," Allen said. "She wanted me to scope out whether your hotel was secure in this area. That's how I wound up reserving the same spot."
My chest warmed. I hadn't realized Selina was watching out for me like that, taking care of things from the shadows.
"Let's head out," I said.
We made our way to the hotel and got checked in.
Our rooms sat directly opposite each other in the hallway, which worked out pretty well.
"So what's the plan now?" Allen asked me.
"I'm hitting the police station first," I told him. "After that, I want to scope out where my brother was last spotted, see if I can turn up anything useful."
"I'm coming with you," Allen said.
I just gave him a nod.
