He just wanted me to process the fact that I was going to be stuck with the Rubicon. None of these people really cared about me. They all just cared about the dragon I had to claim.
I ran up the stairs back to my room. I closed the door and slid down until my butt touched the floor and cried again.
When was my life going to begin? When was I going to be happy?
“It’s easy.”
“No, it’s not. Easy would be clicking a button. This is not clicking a button.”
Lucian laughed. “Just tell me what it is you want and I’ll help you search.”
I couldn’t tell him I wanted to find out more about Blake. “A song from the other side.”
“Okay, then your best bet would be Callibre.”
“What is Callibre?”
“It’s a search engine, the best there is.”
“Like google.”
“Google?”
“Yes,” I chuckled. “Google.”
He shrugged. “Probably.”
“You don’t know Google?”
“No, we have Callibre.” He flicked letters from the pad in his hand to the screen fast. It wasn’t easy. They didn’t know easy.
A hologram popped up in the air, and I jumped. That happens a lot with their technology too.
“What is the song’s name?”
“Fix You.”
His lips curved. “You need fixing?”
“Yeah, I do, okay. A lot of it too.”
He chuckled. “It’s not that bad. Believe me, plenty of girls would love to take your place.”
“Yeah, I doubt that.”
A search engine popped up. “Coldplay?”
“Yes.”
“Funny name for a band.”
He swiped at the yes with his hand, andFix You’s title was right there. He jabbed at it. The creamy walls and paintings disappeared, turning into dark brown walls.
I grabbed his arm. “What is happening?”
“I take this is not normal?”
“No, it’s not.” I kept looking around me. It’s like we got transported into a tunnel.
