Echo of cognition(Book 3 of Forgotten Series)

Chapter 24

Drakes perspective.

Something is wrong with me.

 "What the hell is that suppose to be? If you have his arm in your grasp you have to break something. No threats.Threat afterwards."I ordered annoyed. He did as I said and I looked around the courtyard watching my army practice. I crossed my arms over my chest sighing just a bit. I cant believe its been a month since that idiot has been gone. 

A whole month without picking fights with her just to make her angry. I find her angry funny. Its hard to see her as anything but that crazy lost looking little girl. 

"Somebodies missing her."

I turned my gaze to Jeremy. He was only one of the man who had a crush on her sadly."I dont miss her now get back to work."

"I can tell you do. Isnt that why you made her you second in command?"

I lifted my eyebrow and stared him down."Its because of her skill now dont make me repeat myself."I grabbed his arm and broke it then kicked him away."or you will be sorry."

"Drake what have-"

My whole body roared to life. Carmen. The wind blew her hair and even while I knew she was probably angry at me for some odd reason I could only smile.

" I told you about breaking body parts. I dont like healing all the time. Youve been really crazy since Ty has been gone. Stop adding more stress on my body."

She  healed him. I watched her."I can help you relieve stress."

"I know. I just told you how. Youve been training for 6 hours now. So rest okay?"

I got looks of fear of course as they began leaving."Okay I will rest for 5 minutes."

They groaned and I shouted."Get in order!"

They immediately stood in their rows and stood in front of me head high."I dont want to hear anymore bit-"

"You can leave now. Dont mind him. Drake...come here."

I turned to Carmen hand on her hip looking angry. So adorable. Fine."Im sorry. You can leave."

They shouted while running away."Thank you Carmen!"

"Yeah!"

"Did something happen?"

She shook her  head and looked to the sky while pushing her hair behind her ear."No. I was just checking on you. I know you feel sad."

"You wont tell right?"

She smiled then giggled."Of course I wont tell her. Ill keep that secret for you. I miss her more though. I hate when shes not around. Its weird."

"At least now is different. At first we thought she was dead now we know shes going to die from that training."

"Who's going to die now?"

We both turned to see Ty standing beside Starr while Kory stood behind them.

I looked her up and down then shook my head. Her birth marks are showing. Thats not good. Kory what the hell are you doing?

Its almost time......

Oh. So shes going to be meeting him soon?

Very soon. Im holding off as much as I can. Act naturally. Insult her.

"You look like you didnt get any smarter. Maybe they beat brain cells out of you." That was the worst ever.  That was the best I could do under these circumstances.
