Prologue
GEORGE POV
It's funny how quickly things change. When Nico and I took down the Neo-Templars, I thought we'd enjoy our time together for a much longer time. Our relationship started getting serious, I was already making plans to move to Paris permanently. Then I had to return to the States when my father fell ill. I did my best to care for him but he slowly turned for the worse. In the end, six months after I left Paris, he passed away. All that time I admit I barely stayed in touch with Nico, pretty much severing our relationship. But during those final weeks, I phoned her to inform her of what happened and she asked me to let her know how things turned out. I called her to let her know and also, after the funeral, I decided it would be for the best if I returned to Paris. I called Nico to let her know and we arranged to meet at the airport. I hoped that time with Nico in Paris would help me cheer up. But little did I know that this upcoming reunion would be the start of yet another mystery, yet another death-defying dangerous journey, quite possibly far more dangerous than the last one.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
