?Sorry,? I whispered, feeling my cheeks turn warm in the darkness
He didn't respond, but sped his pace so that following was even more difficult
I was confused when, finally, some light appeared ahead of meHad we taken a different route?
This was not the white brilliance of the biggest cavernIt was muted, pale and silveryBut the
narrow crevice we'd had to pass through seemed the same It wasn't until I was inside the
giant, echoing space that I realized what caused the difference
It was nighttime; the light that shone dimly from above mimicked the light of the moon rather
than the sunI used the less-blinding illumination to examine the ceiling, trying to ferret out replica tiffany its
secretHigh, so very high above me, a hundred tiny moons shone their diluted light toward the
dim, distant floorThe little moons were scattered in patternless clusters, some farther away
than othersEven though I could look directly at the light now, I still didn't
understand it
?C'mon,? Jared ordered angrily from several paces ahead
I flinched and hurried to followI was sorry I'd let my attention wanderI could see how much
it irritated him to have to speak to me
I didn't expect the help of a flashlight when we reached the room with the rivers, and I didn't
receive itIt was dimly lit now, too, like the big cave, but with only twenty-odd miniature
moons hereJared clenched his jaw and chloe dior stared at the ceiling while I walked hesitantly into the
room with the inky poolI guessed that if I stumbled into the fierce underground hot spring and
disappeared, Jared would probably see it as a kind intervention of fate
I think he would be sad,Melanie disagreed as I edged my way around the black bathing room,
hugging the wallHe might be reminded of the pain of losing you the first time, but he would be happy
ifIdisappeared
Because he doesn't know you,Melanie whispered, and then faded away as if she were suddenly
exhausted
I stood frozen where I was, surprisedI wasn't sure, but it felt as though Melanie had just given
me a compliment
?Move it,? Jared barked from the other tiffany toggle necklace room
I hurried as fast as the darkness and my fear would allow
When we returned, Jeb was waiting by the blue lamp; at his feet were two lumpy cylinders and
two uneven rectanglesI hadn't noticed them beforePerhaps he'd gone to get them while we
were away
?Are you sleeping here tonight or am I?? Jeb asked Jared in a casual tone
Jared looked at the shapes by Jeb's feet
?I am,? he answered curtly?And I only need one bedroll
Jeb raised a thick eyebrow
?It's not one of us, JebYou left this on me?so butt out
?She's not an animal, either, kidAnd you wouldn't treat a dog this way
Jared didn't answerHis teeth ground together
?Never figured you for a cruel man,? Jeb said softlyBut he picked knock off chanel earrings up one of the cylinders, put
his arm through a strap, and slung it over his shoulder, then stuffed one rectangle?a
pillow?under his arm
?Sorry, honey,? he said as he passed me, patting my shoulder
?Cut that out!? Jared growled
Jeb shrugged and ambled awayBefore he was out of sight, I hurried to disappear into my cell; I
hid in its darkest reaches, coiling myself into a tight ball that I hoped was too small to see
Instead of lurking silently and invisibly in the outside tunnel, Jared spread his bedroll directly in
front of the mouth of my prisonHe plumped his pillow a few times, possibly trying to rub it in
that he had oneHe lay down on the mat and crossed his arms over his chanel large cambon tote bag chest
