Chapter60:

“Do you have to hang around like this?” I glared at Warrick as he sat at the table closest to the bar, sipping his refill coffee and reading the paper as I worked my shift at the restaurant.  He glanced at me quickly, setting the cup down on the table. “Morpheus said guard you, so here I am. If you have a problem with it, take it up with him.” he muttered over the top of the paper. Arrogant ass. “Oh I will.” I muttered under my breath, wiping a spot from the counter furiously. I had been treated like a prisoner for three days and already I was sick of it. It even made me think of regretting my killing the beast nightmare... but then I remember what he was about to do and suddenly it seemed worth it. Even if I was chained to Warrick’s side for the rest of my life it would be worth it. “Woah there kiddo, what did the counter ever do to you?” my brother asked, snatching the cloth from my grasp before I got the chance to wear a groove in the granite countertop.  “Spoil sport.” I shot back.
