Chapter Thirteen

I totally get you

“So… you’re not talking to me now either?” Noah slid Tobe a wary glance. She was sitting on the other end of the sofa in the lounge, her body bunched up against the arm of it as if she were trying to put as much distance between them as possible. It was dawn and they were al exhausted, having had little or no sleep. But Val had cal ed ahead and told them Eden had something important to tel them. Noah was nervous. Anxious.

Worried. Al bad adjectives. They were gathered in the lounge. Al except Romany who was stil sleeping. They’d fil her in on what went down when she woke up. When Eden wasn’t around.

Tobe turned to look at him, her blue eyes boring into his. “Should I be? If you ask me you’re al being pretty crappy to Eden, and did I or did I not see you cozying up to your ex-girlfriend on the stairwel a few hours ago?”

Noah felt the blast of Cyrus’ glare. The Princeps sat on a stool at the bar, McLeish beside him. Noah’s parents had each taken one of the armchairs. Noah whipped his head up at Cyrus. “I wasn’t, I swear.”

Cyrus’ dark eyes were cold. “I would hope not.”

“We were just talking,” he explained, feeling panic building. If twisted rumors like that got back to Eden… Noah threw a venomous look at Tobe.

The interfering little shrew. “We were just talking. She was apologizing.”

“She should be apologizing to Eden.”

“She wants to.” He narrowed his eyes on the Scot. “Since when are you and Eden al ‘buddy buddy’ again?”

“Since she let me punch her.”

He made a face. Those two had the weirdest friendship. He shrugged and decided to ignore her. October Douglas was one of the most unfathomable girls on the planet.

They al sat in tense silence for a while. Cyrus and Noah weren’t speaking to each other because Eden wasn’t speaking to either of them and they each blamed the other (how the hel was it Noah’s fault?!!). Tobe wasn’t speaking to him and she wasn’t talking to McLeish because of her loyalty to Cameron. And final y, Noah wasn’t talking to his dad who had only thirty minutes before told him that his and Eden’s break up was for the best considering how she’d been acting about the Romany situation. Alain was lucky Emma stepped between them because for the first time Noah had real y felt like flooring his father. Instead he’d spat with uncertainty that they were NOT broken up and Alain didn’t know what the hel he was talking about. Al and al the Ankh mansion was a fun place to be right then.

Anxiety was only increased by the knowledge that Darius was now in the picture. He was already on a plane heading for Texas where he’d break into Adam’s home and office and plant the bugs. He was also going to search the place for any physical evidence of Adam’s involvement as the leader of the rebel Neith.
