Chapter Eight

“Are ya okay? Do ya feel sick? We can stop for a bit, darlin’.”

When Zavion had said that he wanted to go hiking and camping, this wasn’t exactly what he’d meant. “I’m fine. There’s still an hour of daylight left. Let’s keep going.”

For three days, they’d marched through the hills of Missouri as Zavion tried to retrace the path they’d followed from The Hive. The days were cold, but the nights were frigid, and he’d taken to curling up next to Cian in his fox form to stay warm.

So far, they hadn’t found anything, but Zavion could sense that they were getting closer. Once or twice, he’d even picked up a lingering scent from one of his friends, but each time, he’d lost it just as quickly. Still, it was a good indication that he was on the right track and headed in the right direction.

The trip probably would have been mind-numbingly boring if not for Cian’s brothers. While most of them were busy hunting evil vampires in the mountains back home, Devlin and Flynn had agreed to make the journey with them. The two had talked nearly nonstop since they started, regaling Zavion with tales of Cian as a boy.

“So, he’s screamin’ his fool head off like a wailin’ banshee, he is,” Devlin said around his laughter.

“We all go runnin’ into Cian’s bedroom,” Flynn continued when Devlin had to stop to regain his composure. “Thought Da was goin’ to wet himself from laughin’ so bloomin’ hard.”

“I was five!” Cian huffed in disgruntlement, which forced Zavion to slap a hand over his mouth to muffle his giggles.

“So, Cian’s on the top bunk, and Jiminy Christmas, I still don’t know how he managed it,” Flynn added, ignoring his brother’s indignation. “But he’s hanging upside down with one leg caught in the rail, and Farren’s just starin’ up at him like he’s lost his damn mind.”

“So, Da asks what he thinks he’s doing.” Devlin picked up the story, though he still had to pause after every few words when he started chuckling again. “Cian stops shoutin’, pushes himself back up on the mattress, crosses his arms, and stares our Da in the face bold as you please.”

“And what did you tell him?” Flynn asked, bumping his shoulder against Cian’s.

“I don’t remember,” Cian mumbled, but the gleam in his eyes said he was lying through his teeth.

“Well, I remember.” Stopping in his tracks, Devlin folded his arms over his chest and stuck his nose into the air. “‘I’m trainin’ to be an acrobat, Da. You’ll not stop me. I’ll run away with the circus.’”

“Oh, wow,” Zavion breathed before he dissolve into giggles.

“Aye,” Flynn answered, “but it gets better.”

Zavion had no idea how the brothers were going to top that one, but he listened intently just the same. “So, what happened then?”

“Well, Da tells him to go on and run away with the circus if he’s so bothered about it. Cian, being the rebellious shit he was, says he’ll do just that.”

“You really ran away? At five?”

“I didn’t make it far,” Cian answered with a chuckle.
