I hold Jag’s phone tightly to my chest and virtually run back to my room, my hand across my chest to stop my breasts, heavy with milk, from bouncing painfully.

I’m late to feed my boy, but the delay was worth it. The phone in my hand could very well be my ticket to freedom.

Reaching my room I put the phone into my pocket and smile as the nanny hands me my son.

Jag has left, presumably to hunt Asumpta, but he’d given me his assurance he’d help me leave the castle within the week, as soon as he’d secured a safe place for me.

He’d initially suggested his own castle in France, but I have no intention of being held in any castle by any vampire ever again, even one with the best intentions.

Instead, I’d agreed he could find somewhere else to stash me for the time being, a safe house, and I’d asked him for his phone.

With the nanny gone and the baby on my breast, I dial quickly, my hands shaking with anticipation and not a small amount of agitation that my plan won’t work.

I’m not going anywhere with Jag, and I’d never in a billion years leave my baby behind. Now that Asumpta and Eleanor are out of the picture and Viper’s dead, I have another idea.

She answers on the first ring.
