Chapter 27: Being kept in the dark

Following Francine into the kitchen accompanied by her mate. Questions flooded my mind; wanting to know why she wanted me to follow her. Was she planning on making me cover up her lie? I thought angrily.

Taking notice of the place that I will now be staying in. I saw the light inside was very dim, but still, I could manage to see where I was going. Inside gave me a warm feeling of comfort and too made me felt safe. Soon we were in the kitchen. I stood silently staring at Francine, eager to know why she had brought me in here even though I too had some questions I wanted to ask her.

"This is my mate Frank," Francine finally told me her mate's name.

I nodded.

Suddenly I found myself inquiring her about lying to Cindy. I wish she had told her the truth that she was only protecting anyone else from discovering this safe place.

"It was a good thing to do or she would have run off to him and reveal Christian secret spot," she told me.
