“Oh my God,” I yelled. “You bought this?”

He had my treasured charm bracelet and the additional charm was a ring with a massive rock planted on top.

Then he asked, “Am I building you a house in Manor or did you really want to move to Savannah, Georgia?”

“Oh, definitely Manor!” I squealed. “Can you imagine? I’ll be an old lady, you’ll be a Guardian and that will be a whole new chapter in our lives.”

“Yeah, me either,” I said as I made room in the bed for him.

This was something to celebrate!

Thank you so much for reading
Extraction
! I hope you enjoyed Phoebe & Goliath’s story. I would love if you left a review and let me know if I should expand this story, incorporate them into the Guardians series or leave it as is.

Extraction touched on a couple of issues, that I think are worth discussing. See the discussion questions on the next page. Also, please answer them in
Xyla World
, the online place where we can switch the style up!

Love you and look forward to hearing from you!
