Chapter117:

I grabbed my backpack. I wasn't frightened to be out. It was day and no dark could be seen anywhere. It's safe in daytime        I headed downstairs in the hall. My feet staggered but I gripped the railing. Six members of the alphas were seated on the couch and looking at me.       "Hi, Ember. I have heard you have information about our lost friend." Carlos smiled but there was no humor in his tone.        "Hi, " I replied in my meek voice.        "Why don't you tell us from the beginning," Alessandro said, motioning at the couch.        Did this guy just order me?         My eyes lifted to my brothers. I wasn't certain he wouldn't have told them. I gulped. "Queen Reina will be back in the academy ASAP," Carlos said, offering a soft smile.        I tried to smile back, but it felt like I was favoring him.        "You can trust us," Edward said.        I chuckled. "It seems weird hearing it from you."        Carlos laughed but he pretended to cough, feeling his friends' gaze on him.
