The Lost Jewel

Chapter 9

I got off the plane and ran through the gates eager to get back to my dorms. Jeramiah called a taxi, and we rode home quietly.

The dorms were quiet when we got home. I walked to my room and dumped my stuff. The living room was packed and when I entered everyone surrounded me. I grinned knowingly and pulled out Romhilda's Jewel. The room went silent, and Connor stepped forwards. "Good job Lillian," he said. "I told you I'd get the jewel." I laughed.

We all celebrated Jeramiah and my return, partying well into the night and we never spoke of the demon again.
