THE CLOSER DEVON AND Aria got to the house, the more she became convinced of two things.

First: The decision to take her to New York had been rather last-minute.

Second: He hadn’t told Rae.

“There’s a chance she isn’t back from France,” he muttered as they glided down the familiar streets. “Or maybe she slept in...really late.”

Aria watched him with a sympathetic smile. At this point, she wasn’t going to tell him about the fifty missed calls she had on her phone. Nor would she mention the scathing voicemails that were dinging regularly on his own. In an act of supreme charity she wasn’t even going to comment on the fact that, for the last ten minutes, they’d been circling the block.

“Tell you what,” she offered diplomatically. “Why don’t we tell her I went on a walk to clear my head and you went out to find me. When you did, we got breakfast before heading home.”

Devon turned to her slowly, looking like he was on the verge of applause.

“That’s...a wonderful idea. Not that it’s all right to lie to your mother,” he added hastily, “but we should absolutely lie to her now. I wonder if...shoot! I forgot about her truth tatù.”

Ever since discovering the ability to use multiple powers at once, Rae Kerrigan had decided to keep the ink that allowed her to know when someone was lying up and running at all times. It was a source of constant dismay for both friends and family. Especially her teenage children.

“I keep telling you,” Aria muttered conspiratorially, “we really need Uncle Kraigan to come and take that one away. It only ends in tears. Usually mine.”

Devon pulled on to the street in front of the house, glancing nervously at the windows. “We don’t call your Uncle Kraigan unless the world is ending or we’re required to as a public service by the police. To be honest, I’m not entirely comfortable with you calling him your uncle.”

Aria giggled then pulled open the door, quieting abruptly when her mother stormed down the front steps. Her first instinct was to duck back into the car, but it quickly became clear that those fiery eyes were fixed solely on her father. Loyalty vanished. She took a giant step back.

“Before you even start, you should know that I already know what happened,” Rae hissed, jabbing a sparking finger into his chest. “Julian told me everything. Under great duress.”

Devon flashed a fearful glance at the cottage down the street. “What have you done to him? Is he alive?”

“This isn’t funny, Devon.” Rae had yet to acknowledge her daughter’s presence. She had yet to even notice that she was wearing only a bathrobe and mismatched socks. “I come back from a mission only to find that you’ve taken our daughter on a mission of her own. The same daughter who’s currently at the center of a murder investigation and probably shouldn’t be leaving the country.”

Devon took a tiny step back, deliberately hiding the burn on his hand. “It was perfectly safe—”

“Except that it wasn’t perfectly safe,” Rae cried.
