CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY
My memory of Samantha is hazy. My interactions with her had taken place when I had been under Carmine’s control. But from the way she looks at me, I know that she doesn’t have a very good impression of me.
However, she smiles broadly at Sarah, “It’s been a while.”
And to my shock, Sarah runs towards her, throwing her arms around the older woman in a tight hug, “How have you been?!”
“Busy,” Samantha hugs her back before letting her go and looking around. “It’s been a hell of a year. And what about you?”
She holds Sarah away from her, studying her, and then frowning, “You’ve lost considerable weight.”
Sarah’s smile slips and she changes the subject, “When did you get here?”
“I’ve been in contact with the Records Keepers Clan ever since I left. I’ve been gathering allies. I have some people planted within the Order and have been receiving information. An army is marching here. They’ll be here in a few more days.
