Chapter 19: Lullaby Night

The ninth stroke died, and the whole sky burned red.

I threw my clothes on in the dark while Garvan stood at the foot of the bed with his hands open, breathing.

"Grover," he said.

"The cellar."

"Lock yourself in with them."

"I'm already on the stairs!" Grover shouted from below.

"Go!"

I caught Garvan's wrist.

"Say the plan."

"Mari is on the Quiet Bench."

"She's outdoors."

"The suit takes her to the cellar."

"Then it walks me to the Bed."

"And?"

"And you're in the Bed room before I am."

"The window is open."

"The mayor is waiting in the garden with the ledger."

"Dex..."

His jaw worked.

"Dex will come for you," he said.

"He'll come for the Bed."

"You wait, and you don't pull that quilt."

"I know."

"If he forces your hand..."

"Then I let go of the corner and I run."

"Promise me."

"I promise," I said, which was the second lie we had told each other that day, and I meant it as hard as the first.
