Chapter Ten

Darby left a message on the machine that picked up, followed by her number then the number Tah had given her. There was nothing further she could do until she heard back from someone within the network.

Tah walked them to the lab. Darby thought part of the reason was because he thought she might get an immediate call back. She’d tried to tell him and Abby it would be at minimum of twenty-four hours before she heard anything, but most likely, it would be after the person who received her message contacted another watcher to step in.

Tah was adamant he know what was going on, citing that if it turned out the MQJ was Miles Jensen’s daughter, she was part of their extended family. That Isaac Erikson was involved in the woman’s situation appeared to play a role, as well. Apparently, the pride had made it their mission to decipher the cryptic papers Isaac had left behind and correct whatever he’d done. Darby had a feeling if this turned out to be Quinn, as the pride referred to her, she would be just the beginning of them learning the extent of what Isaac Erikson had put into place.

“These are the new arrivals then.” A short man with a crop of unruly, white hair seemed to fly across the room to them. Darby knew he had to be the professor. He approached Calloway first, poking his stomach, palpitating his neck then tugging his upper lip until Calloway snarled at him, canines flashing as he stepped back. The older man laughed. “Prickly lot you shifters are.”

Tah sighed. “This is Professor Mueller. I should have warned you about his habit of annoying people.”

“Research, Tah. I can’t treat what I don’t know.”

“I’m not sick,” Calloway rumbled.

“But you’ve been injected with drugs, and Gideon mentioned that worried you. Sit.” He pointed to a stool. “We’ll take some blood, run some tests and see what’s what. Cougar right?”

Calloway nodded and took a seat on the proffered stool.

“And you’re the watcher.” White, bushy brows lifted as he skimmed his avid gaze over Darby before focusing on Calloway once more. She watched as he prepped her mate’s arm then slid a needle in. “I’ve got journals you’ll want, but only when the time is right.”

“Journals! Where? How?”

He waved his hand as he removed a filled vial from the needle in Calloway’s arm and inserted another. “Picked them up here and there when I came across them. Interesting reading. I imagine more so for you.” He went about changing vials again then set everything aside, tossing the used needle in a bin and turning fully to her. “Up you go,” he said to Calloway, who stood quickly and moved aside. “Now, it’s your turn.”

He motioned for her to take the stool Calloway had been sitting on and went about pulling out fresh supplies.

“So whose journals do you have?” she asked as he poked her and began filling tubes with her blood.

“Mmm, different people,” he answered, his attention clearly focused on what he was doing.
