But that doesn’t matter right now, I have a mission and I need to get to Vesper. I need to figure out how we stop this fucking organization.
Kat throws me a smile and taps on the bed. “I’ll wait downstairs with Vik.”
I sit back on the bed, stretching again. “Please, we slept so late.”
She grins, rubbing her face. “Too bad, I’m awake now.”
I sit up, rubbing my temples. “Tragic.”
She throws another pillow at me. “Get up,Az.”
I take a quick shower, then slip into my sweats and hoodie… The flight is going to be long.
I’m going to be there alone, surrounded by people way more powerful than I am.Strangers.
Scary…
I pull myself out of the haze, going downstairs. I sit down at the table and reach for my toast. But before I can even get my hands on it, another big hand swoops in, snatching it away.
She’s staring at me with a smirk, biting into my breakfast.
“You’re almost thirty,” I point out as she chuckles.
She chews slowly before shrugging. “And?”
I groan and get my revenge by stealing a piece from her plate.
Vik arrives, pressing a kiss to the top of my head and then Kat’s before sitting down and snatching food from her plate as well. “Morning, kids.”
I can’t hold back my laughter when Kat’s mouth falls open in shock.
“You just stole my breakfast,” she says, borderline scandalized.
Vik shrugs. “I’m your brother.”
“I already have a headache, and it’s only 8 a.m.”
Kat bursts out laughing. “We’re just enjoying your company because we’ll miss you when you leave.”
Vik leans back in his chair with a smirk. “Speak for yourself. I think we could use the break.”
“Stop, you’re hurting me,” I say in an exaggeratedly sweet voice.
His smile widens. “Annoying.”
I roll my eyes and grab my coffee, taking a sip before setting the cup down. “Well. I can’t wait to visit Vesper.”
Vik’s smile fades slightly. “You’re really going alone?”
“Of course.”
His jaw tightens. “So, no Damir?”
My stomach clenches hearing his name. “Nohim.”
He exhales sharply, clearly swallowing down a comment.
Kat changes the subject immediately. “And your bike? You came with it last night, so what’s the plan?”
