Speak Not a Word

A twist of events, and a months of sleepless, fevered nights night; Jizabel's one act of defiance left him alive, but nearly voiceless. Cassian struggles to keep them alive on the streets, and Jizabel can't help but feel as though he changed one prison for another. As they try to evade the remnants of Delilah, they masquerade as cousins, pan handlers and performers, even lying their way into a warm church sanctuary as a carpenter and his idiot brother. All the while, Jizabel struggles between wishing Cassian had left him to a peaceful death, and wondering if maybe Cassian really can give him what Alexis always swore.
