CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

SAGE

“Well, that was a lot to take in.”

“It sure as hell was,” I said to Corinne. We were sitting on Mom’s bed, away from all the Gods who were still bustling around the living room. They were all so big, not only in size, but their presence as well. To say that being in the room with all of them was intimidating was an understatement.

I needed to get away. I needed to breathe.

But for some reason Slade had decided to post up outside for the most part, so walking out to get some fresh air wasn’t private either. I signaled to Corinne to follow me into Mom’s room and we shut the door, both of us trying to make sense of everything.

“Why wouldn’t the cops report her missing?” I asked her, my voice still full of bewilderment. Bewilderment that was slowly turning to anger.

“Something isn’t right, the Gods are right.”

“I just needed to get away and think, Corinne,” I said. “They’re a lot to take together.”

“I bet they are,” she snickered, then stopped herself, shooting me an apologetic look. “Sorry, I’m a perpetual twelve-year-old.”

“You’re a perpetual twenty-year-old horny woman.”

“Hey, I’m much older than that.”

“With the horniness levels of a college student.”

“And I hope that never changes,” she protested. “Did you know Blade and Colt are the only single ones?”

“You asked?”

“Yep. And both of them seem totally delicious. Looks like you snagged a good apple, Sage.”

I shook my head. “I haven’t snagged anything. In fact, I’m distancing myself, if you hadn’t noticed.”

“Well, that’s stupid, but whatever. You do you. Did you not tell them about the journal?”

“No,” I shook my head. “I was going to, but as soon as I came home, they bombarded me with all that information and I don’t know…”

My voice trailed off as I slowly shook my head.

“There’s just so much.”

“Yeah,” Corinne agreed. “They have a lot to do now.”

“Right.”

“I have an idea,” she said, a slow smile stretching over her face that made all kinds of warning bells go off.

“What’s that?”

“Well, remember I told you the little bit of info I found in your Mom’s journal, right?”

“Yeah.”

She’d discovered Mom was seeing a therapist the last few weeks. Someone named Leo, apparently. I’d planned on telling the Gods about it, hoping they could figure out who he was. I wasn’t sure if it was important or not, and now that they’d told me a fucking missing person’s report hadn’t even been filed, it seemed even less important in the scheme of things.

“Why don’t we take over that bit of the investigation?”

“We?” I asked, raising a brow. “Don’t you need to be heading home?”

“I can stay for a while,” she shrugged. “I took a week off, actually.”

“You did? Why?”

“Because you need me, Sage,” she insisted. “I thought you had things under control, honestly, but once I got back with Maddy and saw the Gods, I realized just how much help you really needed. Of course you can’t do this on your own. I was selfish to think you could, and I’m sorry.
