FOURTEEN

A fretful night of little sleep had made things abundantly clear—if I wanted to save the pack from the evil dark-magic using twins and keep it in the hands of the other evil-out-of-necessity dark-magic user, I needed to up my game.

I hoped Grandma would forgive me.

Ian arrived at around ten, Fluffy and Rufus in tow.

“Leave the dogs out here.” I indicated the backyard, refusing to meet Fluffy’s round, innocent eyes. What I needed to do couldn’t be done in her presence—her goodness was too strong, and I didn’t want to disappoint her.

She let out a small, sad whine when I closed the door in her face, but I hardened my heart.

“All right, I’m here.” Ian stuck his hands in the front pockets of his jeans and leaned against the wall of the hallway. “What was so important that you needed to meet me ‘with all urgency?’”

The sleepless night also reinforced my decision not to disclose my discovery about his father.

Like me, Ian must’ve wondered why Hutton needed a potion for his alpha powers when they clearly had the same father. He might’ve arrived at the same conclusion about Hutton’s mom and a potion interfering with the process. But then, maybe not. I had no way of knowing, and I wasn’t about to make things harder for him—or myself.

If he didn’t know, telling wouldn’t help my case, and I’d be introducing a huge heap of extra pain. If he already knew, it would only remind him that Hutton seemed to be following in his mother’s footsteps and make my job all the more difficult.

Did that make me selfish? Probably.

Would Ian forgive me if he didn’t know the truth and found out I’d kept it from him? Probably not.

The lovers’ card came to mind. The choices of the present influenced the opportunities in the future. After this mess with his brother, Ian and I might not even have a friendship. How utterly depressing.

“Well?” he asked.

I forced myself to stop thinking about tarot cards, sad little animals in the backyard, the growing guilt weighing my heart down into the pit of the abyss, and everything that didn’t have anything to do with Hutton’s potion.

“The twins visited the shop,” I said in a grim tone.

“No, they didn’t.”

I filled my lungs with enough air to last a deep dive. “They did. Wanted to know if I had freezing potions, or worse.”

A faint smile curved one side of his mouth. “No, they didn’t.”

“They threatened me if I didn’t help them with the potion.”

“No, they didn’t.”

“How do you know?”

“Because you’d have called me right away.”

I sneered. “I don’t always call you right away.”

“You called me the moment you saw that post in the dark web.”

“That was different.”

“You’re trying to pressure me into helping with the alpha potion.” He leaned in and his voice cooled. “It’s not going to work.”

“Not even if it puts me in danger?” I asked just as coolly.

“The twins don’t know who you are.”

“Hutton does, and you know what he’ll do.”

“He’ll do nothing because if he does, they’ll think he’s trying to shift blame from losing his pack.
