CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Maddy

Rhys gave me a lingering kiss, then took the stairs two at a time, eager to find a quiet place to hide where he could study the book about guardians without interruption.

Cece paused outside the cafeteria, and she scanned the room to make sure we weren’t being watched before closing her eyes. Her brows knit together. When she opened her eyes again, she nudged her head toward the hall leading into the older part of the building. “Let’s start in this direction. I think...there’s something about Wolfy I can pick up with my empathy. Like the feel of where he could be.”

“Okay.” I hurried to catch up and walk beside her.

One hall led to another, and we strolled past the suits of armor, casually stopping to check them out to make it look like we were actually interested in the historical aspects of the campus. This gave Cece a chance to get a better fix on Wolfy.

“I think…” She pointed back in the direction we’d come from.

While I did my best to hold back my frustration, a grumble still slipped out. “We just came from there. You said he might be this way.”

Arms splaying wide, she huffed. “I can’t quite get a read on him, okay? This is hardly an exact science.”

“Okay. Sorry.” My shoulders curled forward. “I’m just worried.”

She rubbed my arm, and her voice grew soft. “I get it. I’m concerned about him, too. But we’ll find him.”

“Hope so.”

She started back toward the central part of the reformatory. “Maybe he’s off doing dog stuff—like chasing squirrels.”

“He’s a vegetarian,” I said as we strode past the cafeteria and into the open area outside our rooms.

“So maybe he doesn’t eat them?” she said over her shoulder as we passed my room.

“He doesn’t do the usual dog things like hunting and eating rodents and bugs.”

Her lips twisted and she swallowed. “Can’t say that I’d want to, either.” Tilting her head, she indicated that we should cross the room and take the hall leading toward the teachers’ offices.

“So, about the folder and Aidan…” I said, edging into the conversation carefully.

“What about it? I thought we agreed that we have other things to worry about right now.”

“If you want my advice—”

Her finger poked her chest. “Big sister.” Jutting out, the digit hit me in the ribs, though it didn’t hurt. “Little sister.”

“You’re not that much older than me.”

“I don’t need to have this talk, Maddy,” she sighed.

“I just think…don’t go too soft on him, or he’ll take advantage of it.”

She held open the door at the end of the hall for me to pass through. “I’d think less of him if he didn’t. But no worries. I’ve got the situation under control.”

“In what way?”

“Just leave him to me.”

“Glad to.” I crinkled my nose. “He’s much too spicy for my taste.”

She snorted. “And I’m too spicy for him.”

I tipped my head, studying her face that gave nothing away. “But he’s not too spicy for you, am I right?” When she didn’t say anything but kept walking ahead of me, I skipped past and blocked her passage.
