The Keeper's Flame (A Pandoran Novel, #2) - Plot & Excerpts
Thad said.He dodged around the corner before I could say another word.“Lady, where’s he going?” Fleck asked.“Who knows?” I searched the crowd. “But if he’s not back in ten minutes, we’ll find someone else.”I didn’t know who, exactly, and I highly doubted there was anyone else who could help us sneak out of the castle walls, but I wasn’t about to linger here much longer, not with Fleck.We stood against the wall, keeping to the shadows, watching the crowd for any signs of Thad.Two brown horses trotted past towing a wagon filled with hay. The driver, hidden in gobs of wool, yanked the reins, pulling the wagon to a stop right before our alleyway.I pushed Fleck behind me and held my breath.The driver turned in his seat and faced us, slowly lifting his hood until I saw a familiar smirk with a piece of grass hanging from his mouth.Thad.He pointed with his thumb to the back of the wagon.So, he was going to sneak us out the main gate. I wasn’t sure I liked that idea, but it was better than anything I’d come up with, which was nothing.I grabbed Fleck and the two of us slipped into the back, between the bales of hay.
