CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

LANCE HAD CHOCOLATE ALL over his face and fingers. It all tasted good, though, and his cuts were scabbed over and healing, so he didn’t care much. He never complained when it came to Cedar and food. No one did. The polar bear knew food. However, it sucked having to do all this work. He was helping to replace the chocolates that Yuri had ruined yesterday. At least making the chocolates was better than cleaning up the kitchen. Cedar had insisted they clean it top to bottom, beyond the mess Yuri had made, before getting started.

Thankfully, Cedar waited until morning so they could get some sleep last night. And it wasn’t just Lance and Yuri doing all this work. Most of the shifters currently staying in Eurio were here helping. Lance had a sneaking suspicion that Cedar planned all of this out just so Yuri would be a part of everything, not really as a punishment at all.

“Are you going to tell us what happened to your face yet?” Mateo asked as he worked alongside Lance.

“You know what happened,” Lance said.

“Yeah, I just want to know why.”

Lance glanced over at his brother, who was working on the other side of the prep table. They had beat each other up pretty good last night, but the marks were beginning to fade already, thanks to their tiger-shifter healing. Yuri paid Lance no mind, content to focus on what he was doing. He was making some very… interesting chocolates, like abstract crystal shards or pieces of flat coral. He wanted to see what would happen if he didn’t use the heart-shaped molds, so he was drizzling hot liquid chocolate over wax paper. It was mostly a disaster, but some of the shapes turned out cool. Control-freak Cedar hadn’t made any comments on it—which was probably just as well.

Lance wondered what Ash was up to.

He hadn’t had a chance to call with all the chaos going on. Not even in the morning. Cedar woke them up bright and early and didn’t give them a chance to do anything for themselves.

Besides, he was doubting himself.

He realized he was being crazy about this whole thing. He tried to give Ash everything last night. He laid it all out on the table, and all of it was true. Maybe the craziest thing of all was how Ash seemed to accept him anyway. They said they’d wait for him at a hotel they hadn’t planned on staying in so long. Lance could fix that and give Ash a home. Eurio was more open-minded at this point. They probably wouldn’t care too much if he brought a human here in need of refuge. They had Austin, and it was Ash he was talking about. Everyone would fall in love with them.

“Why are you still here?” Yuri said as he let another strange piece of chocolate dry on some wax paper. “Cedar didn’t make you come. She didn’t have anything to use as leverage against you.”

Lance ignored him and worked on mixing one of the raspberry fillings.
