Chapter Thirteen

“Wait, wait. So Danira and you had a fucking showdown in your dream and you’re just now letting us in on it?”

Faye’s large, pale green eyes were bearing into Hazel’s soul as she leaned in close for the answer to her question. Behind her, both Tucker and Caden had paused what they were doing and finally gave Hazel their undivided attention. Faye pulled away from Hazel with a huff, opening her mouth to say something before pausing and thinking better of it. She turned to face Hazel once again and her surprised eyes had narrowed into a questioning slit as she settled on another question.

“Was Nico there?” Faye inquired suddenly, Tucker seemed to tense, a scowl crossing his face at the mention of Danira’s hunter.

“Her thug? Yeah he was there, didn’t really do much though, Danira was the one who left behind the damage.” Hazel lifted the sleeve of her sweater and showed them all the red handprint against her skin. It was almost gone, but still bright enough for the three of them to gasp and get a closer look. It looked like a healing burn, something she was sure would be gone within a week, but was still there as a reminder of what had transpired. Caden appeared before her, his large hands taking her arm as he adjusted the dark glasses on his face, blue eyes studying the mark before looking back at Hazel.

“Doesn’t hurt, does it?” When Hazel shrugged, Caden continued on, his voice was cracked and dry, as serious as it had been in the van rushing there the day before. “You said that this…thing-”

“-Guardian.”

“Guardian. He’s her brother and he protected you? We’re going to need to get filled in on that one. Where does his spirit reside? Can we get more information about Danira from him before Nico comes knocking? She has been a menace to the Affinity community for so very long, the idea we can find out more information and take her down when others could not, it’s something we cannot pass up.”

She didn’t answer right away, looking over to Faye as she mulled over everything he was truly asking. Faye let out a groan behind him as Tucker left the room in a rush without waiting for any sort of response from Hazel. A few seconds later, thuds were heard from down the hall towards where Hazel could only assume his bedroom was.

“I mean,” she started, “he’s at my old house. But other people live there, they really do. Faye, we saw it when you came to get me. It’s about an hour away from here and I really don’t like the idea of seeking my Guardian out.” Hazel responded finally.

“Has he ever caused you harm? Your Guardian? Interesting he asked you to call him this, those who decide to protect humans and keep our existence secret deem themselves Guardians. I wonder if he was assigned to such a group when he was alive, do you know?” Faye inquired, glancing to the space in the doorway behind Hazel where Tucker stood, a bag over his massive shoulder.
