I stopped dead in my tracks when i heard it. He was talking about me. I knew he was, and he was talking to someone on the other line, someone i didn't know, someone i couldn't trust. An outsider. It filled me with fury and fear, to know that my secret of existence was let on to a stranger, and I listened intently to see who Mikah was betraying me too.
