As I tell Liam about Alek's new partner, I can't help but shake my head.I utter, "I mean, really Liam," with a tone of contempt in my voice. This girl's innocence is way too great for our way of life. She is not welcome here.Liam's eyes sparkle with amusement as he casts a little smile my way. I understand how you feel, Alice," he replies in a cool, composed tone. But Alek appears content with her. That is the only thing that matters.I sigh in exasperation because I don't want to buy into his justification. She's so innocent, Liam, but. She is unaware of the threat surrounding us. What if she has an unfortunate event? What if she is injured?Liam steeples his fingers in front of him as he sits back in his chair."Alice, I understand your concerns," he says in a stern tone.

No; everything is good. we needed to rest, Liam stated." The person on the other end of the line could be heard responding, but I was unable to understand what they were saying. I've been under a lot of stress over the past few months. Being unable to get in touch with Sage and receiving no response was really upsetting.
