Her phone nearly dropped as her hand trembled. Assuming it was a prank, she deleted the message without much thought.
Later that night, as darkness fell, there were faint noises outside. Being the light sleeper that she was, Yvette was soon awakened by the sound.

Since her hearing aid was broken and the direct communication device with Ray had been sent for repairs, Yvette could only contact Ray by phone now.
"Ray?" "I'm here." "Are you asleep? Could you cover for a bit?" Yvette asked.
"I'm on my way." After Ray hung up the phone, he stepped out of the car.

"It's none of your business," cthe familiar response.
Xavier's temper was nearly uncontrollable as he hissed, "You're coming back to Tirion withtomorrow." Yvette's gaze wavered slightly. "I'm not going back." "That's not up for you to decide."
