The scent of jasmine woke Jade. She was groggy and was having a problem opening her eyes. She felt like she had just gone to sleep. Jade forced her eyes open and looked around the chamber. The fragrance from the flower was still heavy in the room. If Yassim thought she was going to read that letter she had another thing coming. Jade looked at the table and to her surprise she saw two letters.

What the hell she thought as she wrapped the sheet around her and went to the table. Jade stood staring at the second letter. Her fingertips slowing caressed the name. Why would Yassim be writing to Yuri? Jade had an urgent need to deliver the letter to Yuri. Yuri would not be afraid to open his letter and she needed to know what Yassim said. She grabbed the letter and ran to Yuri’s room.
