CHAPTER 247
In an alleyway between two towering buildings where the sun's rays barely dared to reach, a blonde-haired figure stood with his back to the entrance.
He remained perfectly still, staring into the oppressive darkness where someone else leaned against the damp brick wall.
Their features were completely swallowed by the heavy shadows.
"Hm. You actually contacted me? That's insane, bro. Aren't you terrified that he will discover we're in communication and come to retrieve you?" a feminine voice asked, echoing slightly against the narrow walls.
The blonde figure remained silent for several long seconds, his gaze fixed on the uneven earth beneath his boots.
"It's remarkable how you managed to sneak in here the moment I called without a single soul spotting you. How did you pull that off?" Kai asked, his voice low.
His amethyst eyes were fixed on the shadows, which seemed to be growing unnaturally heavier by the second.
