<p>“Please, Ember,” Adrian said with exasperation thick in his voice. “Don’t start this again.” </p>
<p>It had only been a day since Ember and Adrian heard about the women going missing in Bucharest. Ever since then, she had been restless and unable to sleep. Her every thought on the poor young girls and memories of her time spent with Donovan in Sinaia. </p>
<p>“Adrian, please don’t treat me like a child,” she snapped back, her annoyance boiling over. “You know that you can’t stop me from doing things on my own.” </p>
<p>Adrian sighed and rubbed his eyes. “I know that I cannot stop you, Ember. That much is clear. What I am saying is that there is a chance that Reign came here specifically to search for you! All I am asking of you is to please let me do some digging before you jump into the fray without knowing anything about what is going on.” </p>
