Beside me. Tiara slept undisturbed. Careful not to wake her, I slipped out of bed and answered.

“Come to room 240. I’m here.”

The line went dead before I could speak.

For a moment, I simply stood there, stunned.

Room 240 was right next door. Ezra was here?

Then it hit me–the promise I had made. I was supposed to go straight back to the penthouse after dropping Tiara off, but Rowan, the enforcers, and that stupid crash delayed me.

Guilt clawed up my chest, sharp and immediate.

I rushed out, heart racing, and knocked on the door far more times than necessary.

It swung open.
