Re: Chapter Four: Ghosts
Miles and Ruby circled each other, edging ever closer. The woman had a confident little smirk, eyeing him with amusement. She rolled her shoulder, tilting her long neck to one side, a little crack emanating from within. “You know…” She said. “I never got it. Why he favored you. Why Jakob put so much...
