Annessa was glad to see Ian waiting for her outside the training center. She hurried to escape whatever stupidity had been happening with Elion. It was like her body had betrayed her back there.

“Ready for your driving lesson?” Ian asked.

“We’re still doing this?”

Ian waved at himself. “Do you not see me standing right here?”

“Oh, I see you.” She made a point of scanning his face. “You look like crap.”

Ian touched his bruised cheek. “That’s not very nice after I used my face to protect you.”

“After you drove us into a trap,” she reminded.

“Touché. If it makes you feel better, my contacts now believe they’re belly dancers for an hour every day when the sun goes down.”

“You’re serious?”

“Uh, yeah.” He pointed to his cheek. “Do you see what happened to my face?”

“It could’ve been worse,” Annessa said. “What if they found out that you’re a…” Annessa sucked in a breath as a shroud draped over her mind.

“Careful. I have that tidbit of knowledge bundled up in your mind, where no one will find it. If you let it out, anyone might hear it.”

“What if one of those Phyton had figured it out?”

“Then things would’ve gone a bit differently, I’m sure.” Ian shrugged. “But they didn’t.”

“But they could’ve,” Annessa persisted.

“I feel like we’re speaking in circles.”

Annessa sighed. “I was scared. I don’t want to be scared anymore.”

“Is that why you were working out with the boyfriend?” Ian pumped his brows.

Annessa’s cheeks warmed at the insinuation. “We were not working out.”

Ian grinned. “Oh really? What were you doing then, naughty girl?”

“You’re terrible.”

“I can’t help it that I’m a romantic.”

Annessa laughed. “You’re so full of crap.”

Ian shoved the helmet toward her. “We doing this?”

“Yes. But no leaving campus.”

“I’m not a complete imbecile.”

“I can think of a dozen people who would disagree with that statement.” Annessa jammed the helmet on. “I’m kinda sorry that Zoom will miss out on this now.”

“Says who?” Ian whistled and the wisp slunk out of the bike’s shadow. “He’s been following me around for the last twenty minutes. I think he knows what time it is.”

“Zoom!” Annessa bent down and ran her fingers over the shadow. “Does Axton know you’re here?”

Zoom shook his head and then seemed to shrink a little.

“I won’t tell if you don’t,” Annessa whispered and Zoom perked up before attaching to the bike’s shadow for his ride.

Ian was staring at her.

Annessa squirmed. “What?”

“Nothing. You’re just really weird.”

“Says the psychic.”

“Exactly. So that’s saying a lot.” Ian stuck his hand into his pocket and pulled out an apple. “Now let’s go see a moose about an apple.”
