I kept an old jeep in the garage for mudding and it fired to life on the first try. Cass and I joked and teased each other as I followed the road over the mountain pass to a small town called Sharon Hill. It was a little bit of a drive, but the diner on the main drag could do things with eggs that should be illegal.

Cass and I had already scraped our plates clean and were finishing off our coffee when I heard a familiar voice from the dining counter.

“Better make it to go,” the voice said. “Got called in on a job and need to make it to Blood Valley PDQ.”

Turning in my seat, I cleared my throat and waited for Kade to see me.

“Oh, hey,” he started to greet me, stopping short when he saw Cass sitting beside me. His eyes bugged out and I had to swallow a laugh. Either he was shocked to see me with someone or he was familiar with Cass’s, ahem, line of work.

Or, I corrected myself, it could be a combination of the two.

“You’re headed to Blood Valley?” I asked, mentally counting back to when I’d told Rafe to get some family time and some rest. I’d really been thinking of more than the five hours that it had been since he left my place.

“Well, yeah,” Kade said, walking over to our table. “As soon as I heard about Colby, I dropped what I was doing.” Kade must have misinterpreted my surprise, because he rushed to reassure me. “It’s just a bail jump from a few states over,” he said quickly. “No pack business.”

“Yeah, sure,” I agreed, not wanting to pump him for the information that my investigator should have already given me. “Do me a favor? When you catch up with Rafe, mention that you saw me?”

“Okay,” Kade said slowly. I could see the wheels turning in his mind as he tried to figure out why I would ask that of him. He was saved by the bell when the waitress called his name, hefting his to-go box high in the air. “Gotta go, Ralph. I’ll tell him.”

“Thanks.” I watched Kade bustle out of the diner, knowing that Rafe would be calling any minute. There was no way the excitable hyena would wait until he made the four-hour trek down the mountain to fill Rafe in.

“What was that all about?” Cass asked.

“I’m not sure,” I admitted. “But it doesn’t sound good.” I rubbed my fingers over the back of his hand and sighed. “I think I better go find out. Will you give me a raincheck on our after-breakfast plans?”

“Of course,” Cass agreed promptly with a sweet smile before draining his coffee cup. “I’m ready whenever you are.”
