Kalin threw back his head and laughed, quickly disappearing behind the rocks.
Janie waited until he’d left the dream before turning toward Zane. “Where have you been?”
He shrugged. “Training. I told you I’d be busy.” Finally he looked at her.
“What happened to your face?”
“My mother’s people train harder than my father’s.” Zane stretched his neck. “Why did you let Kalin in your dream?”
“I didn’t. He sat on the rocks when I got here.” She’d stopped being so careful about keeping her dreams private. “I talked to him before and thought he had changed.” Unlike the scorpion.
Zane shook his head. “Kalin isn’t going to change.”
“Are you?” The words came out before she could think.
“No.” The word was soft, but Zane’s eyes looked hard. “It’s you and me, Janie Belle. No matter what I have to do ... I promise it’ll be you and me. We’re gonna fix it all.”
She reached forward and took his hand. “Do you want me to come find you?” Everyone called her smart. A smart girl would figure out a way.
“No.” Zane’s smile finally showed up. The fun one she loved. “Not right now. When the time comes, I’ll find you.”
“You promise?” She wished she could hurry up and grow, so they could fix the world.
His smile faded. “I promise, Janie Belle.”
She grinned wider. “’Cause you’re the scorpion?”
He shook his head. Very slowly. “No, Belle. I’m the flood.”
