Chapter 30

The days passed quickly, blurring into a haze of routine and anxious anticipation. Each moment seemed to drag yet simultaneously fly by as the night of my meeting with Drex approached. I had kept my distance from Keegan, immersing myself in the investigation into Desi Arturo's murder. The unease gnawed at me, but tonight, I hoped for a reprieve. Tonight, I would see Drex.

As I prepared for bed, I tried to calm my racing thoughts. Ash, sensing my restlessness, nudged against me, his purrs vibrating through my body. He gave me those sad kitten eyes, silently pleading for attention. I stroked his fur until my eyes grew heavy, and as sleep took over, I welcomed the escape from reality.

When I opened my eyes, I found myself in our familiar meeting place, the ethereal chamber aglow with dancing lights. The walls were adorned with a cascade of beautiful flowers and twinkling lights, creating a dreamlike ambiance. And there, standing in the midst of it all, was Drex.
