here, you can also tell her I look forward to catching up with her tomorrow at school.”

If I were to make an assumption based solely on the look and feel of the parking lot, well, I’d probably

assume that all is as fine and well and normal as it ever will be.

I’d also assume that this morning’s early training session/workout—the one that left all of my muscles

quivering—was a total waste of time and that I should’ve just slept in instead.

But from everything Miles has told me, I need to venture a little farther than the overcrowded lot that

looks more like a luxury car dealership than an area reserved for student parking.

I need to go past the wrought-iron gates and into the heart of the school, where, according to him

anyway, the real story lives.

And even then, he says it’s probably only truly shocking to those in the know, since all of the teachers

and administrators remain pretty much oblivious to the new social order.

“And, Ever,” he says, turning to me as I head for my intended space, the best in the bunch, the one

Damen used to save for me that now, for some strange reason, has been taken over by Haven. “That’s

not all. There’s a little more to it, something else you should know.”

“Sing it.” I smile, pulse racing as I focus on Roman’s shiny red Aston Martin that Haven now drives.

“Not everything is quite what it may seem at first glance.” He studies me, carefully, cautiously, making

sure that I’m listening before he goes on to say, “So…just try to keep that in mind, okay? Don’t rush to

judgment. Don’t make any snap assumptions should you…or, I guess I should say,when you…come

across something like that. Okay?”

I squint, pushing my hair off my face, saying, “Spill it, Miles. Seriously, whatever it is you’re dancing

around, just say it, simple and clean. Because, honestly, I have no idea what you’re getting at.”

Narrowing my gaze and reading into his energy, his tremulous, wavering aura, a sure sign that

something’s up, but still maintaining my vow to respect his privacy by stopping right there, not even

considering trespassing on his innermost thoughts.

But it’s not like he knows that. All he can see is my deep, piercing stare, and it sends him straight into a

panic.

“Hey, stop that!” he shouts. “You promised you wouldn’t do that without my permission.Remember? ”

“Relax.” I dismiss the thought with a wave of my hand. “I wasn’t reading your mind. Not even close. I

mean,sheesh ! What does it take to get a little trust around here?”

Mostly mumbling that last part to myself, but for some reason, it prompts him to say, “Trust goes both

ways, Ever, just remember that, okay? That’s pretty much what I was getting at earlier.”

I shrug, moving past Miles’s intentionally coy and cryptic warning and on to my real mission. Closing my

eyes just long enough to do what it takes to prove to acertain someone just who’s the real boss around

here.Seeing the red Aston Martin banished to a faraway corner, as I punch the gas and quickly claim the

newly vacated space.
