“Don’t worry. I’m sure Briar will show up at some point today,” I say, and his smile drops as he becomes serious.
“Do you really think she will?”
“You know as well as I do that the two of them can’t be apart for more than a few hours.”
“Unlike some people we know,” he deadpans.
I know he’s talking about the two of us being just as bad, but I choose to ignore his statement. “I’ll page you the moment she arrives,” I offer, and he nods.
“See you then.” Mace turns toward his office
