Book Trailer:
Makai took her
hands in his. “This is your chance to be free, Alyra.”
Alyra squeezed
his hands but sighed and shook her head, blowing her black hair out of her
face. “I don’t want to be free, Makai! I get fed in here, plus I have you! Out
there, I’m all alone. No food or shelter. Never knowing when I’ll get my next
meal or if I’ll survive another night. Gangs…”
Makai pursed his
lips.
“He said you
could come too.” Hope made Alyra’s heart flutter in her chest.
Makai narrowed
his eyes on the iron bars. “Only if we found a way for me to get there. I don’t
have a work detail, remember? The only time I’m let out is for our meal in the
mess hall.”
“So we’ll have to
find a way to get you from the mess hall to the tunnel on the day of the
escape.” Alyra had hope in her voice and in her heart, hope that she could
escape with Makai, somehow, someway.
She couldn’t lose
another friend after Gyran. This would be different of course, but she cared
for Makai. He was the first person to try to protect her since she arrived on
the streets, the first one to show her such kindness in this cruel, harsh
reality, after Gyran’s betrayal. There was no way she would leave without him.
No, if Makai couldn’t
escape, then neither would she.
Of course, she
didn’t tell him that.
