*Eli* Brent and Sean have insisted on coming with me, and I’m glad about that. But I’m not glad that they seem to feel responsible for Kelly’s disappearance since they’d left before they knew the girls were secure. They’d been so excited to see whether the rickety old van would make it all the way

*Gene*Ah, the joy of it all. I don’t know what in the world possessed me to think about giving up my royal title, especially after I’d worked so hard to obtain it, but now all is safe. I know that bastard Adam wasn’t doing my bidding as he should have as my supposedly loyal Beta, but this new guy,
