Taylor was thoroughly disgusted with herself for thinking there was even a slight chance the things Kelly and Scourge had told her about Wes were true. She must be sicker than she thought to mistrust a man like him. He was honest. And kind. And with a family like the one he had, how could he be anything else? No, the more she thought about it, the more certain she was that Wes wasn't keeping any secrets. And that meant the problem was all hers, and by God, she was going to deal with it this time. Get over this habit of being so suspicious.

Because he meant something to her. He meant … a whole lot to her.

And maybe, just maybe, this lingering attraction she still felt for Wolf Shadow was just one more way she was subconsciously trying to sabotage her own happiness. It was probably all some very deep psychological thing that she couldn't untangle alone. But she would. Chelsea would help her.

She turned to leave, tripped on the tent flap and caught herself before she fell, but the medallion flew from her hands, landing in a muddy bit of dirt directly in front of Wes's tent.

"Damn!" Taylor knelt, snatching it up, checking it quickly for damage and scowling at the mud all over its surface. She ducked quickly back into Wes's tent, searching for something to wipe the pendant clean, and spotted a washbasin in the corner, with a cloth tossed inside it. Snatching the cloth up, she carefully wiped the bits of dirt and mud from the pendant, sighing in relief when it seemed to be unharmed by her clumsiness.

But then she frowned, because the cloth left a streak of yellow on the stone. What the hell…?

Taylor rubbed the stain off with her thumb, then shook the washcloth out and stared at the odd blotches of color smeared all over it. It looked like…
