TWENTY-FOUR

Wren

The sun dipped beneath the horizon, and the sky painted beautiful hues of pinks and purples.

“You don't have to come with me.” Lachlan cleared his throat and forced a hand through his unruly brown curls.

“I know I don't have to, but I want to. You've never let me be by your side during the full moon, and I think that needs to change.”

He squeezed my hand tighter as we stepped through the Bestial forest.

“We really haven't had a chance to talk about the journal,” I murmured.

“Your father's journal? I know, tiny fox, but he's away from that now. As long as that human faction is truly goal-oriented about equality, then your father should be okay.”

“Yes, I know.. but I was actually talking about Lily's journal.”

His jaw ticked as he nodded, turning his gaze from me back to the path in the forest. Crickets sang into the evening sky, and little glows of light flickered around us as lightning bugs came out. “She had explained in the beginning why she was doing it. It was about keeping her family safe, that the humans had threatened them. But the rest of it was all clinical, very in depth, and almost as if she enjoyed it.” A shiver racked through his body, and he tightened his jaw even more. “I absolutely hate the thought of it.”

“I'm so sorry. She's your twin, though. Give her the benefit of the doubt until you can’t anymore.” I squeezed his hand.

Lachlan loved his twin dearly, and I’d hate for her to turn out to be the way he thinks.

“I know, and you're absolutely right. She's my sister, and it's my fault she ended up in that place anyway.”

“It is not your fault.” I tugged him to a stop, reaching up and turning his face to look at me. My fingertips grazed the scruff on his jaw. “Lachlan, it's not your fault, and if you were in the same position as her, I don't think you would make a different choice. You wouldn’t let anything happen to your parents or to Lily if that was the threat.”

“No, but I also wouldn't experiment on my own kind. I would escape and try to find them.”

“Ideally, yes, but we don't know what she's going through or has gone through.”

His head dipped in a nod. “You're right. I guess I'm just scared to get my hopes up.”

“And that's normal. I'm scared to get my hopes up that my father will find me.”

“He will find you, tiny fox. I know it.”

“You know I love you, right?”

His aura flashed pink as he grinned. “I love you… Do you think I could fuck you before the full moon rose?”

Heat spread through my body as desire kindled between my legs. “I'm not sure. We'd have to try it.”

A growl rumbled in his throat before he shook his head. “Can't risk shifting inside of you.”

My mouth fell open as surprise rippled through me, and my arms fell to my sides. I hadn't even thought of the possibility.
