Chapter 7

"Ayup, this is the one," I said holding up a rock to Clark and Parker. "Thank your father for narrowing it down to only these few dozen though," I chuckled as I set the chosen rock to the side and pushed the shoebox full of the remaining miscellaneous rocks back toward the twin bear shifters.

"Yeah, he was afraid that if he didn't send everything, he would send the wrong thing." Clark explained.

I held up a hand with a smile. "No, I'm not faulting him. He was absolutely right." I glanced over at the other end of the table where Tau was busy sorting a similar box that Kent and Peter's father had sent. So far, he hadn't found the right one from what I could see.

"Did ya have a chance to check me Mam's stone out yet?" Sean asked as he dropped into the empty seat beside Cody.

Shaking my head, I pointed to where the Irishman’s rock sat waiting to be examined. "You're up next, but first I need to go over Cody’s."

Cody squirmed and scratched his jaw stubble. "Yeah, I'm not exactly positive that any of these will be what you're looking for, but it's all I have from my father that even comes close to what we’re looking for."

I nodded, and took a deep breath before picking up the first of Cody's collection. One by one, I examined each individual piece. From pretty pieces of quartz to different samples of igneous and sedimentary pieces, it was a nice rock collection.

Unfortunately, not a single one gave me the imagery I was looking for, that little sparkle of something extra that would link it to the ancient shamans circle.

Shaking my head with a sigh, I put his offerings back in the box and pushed it gently across the table.

"I'm sorry, Cody. But none of those comes close."

"I guess my family screwed up in protecting our history then, because I can't think of anything else that would fill the bill," Cody said.

River walked up beside Cody and leaned over his shoulder, his fingers moving to an obsidian cross that hung from Cody's neck on a leather cord.

"Where did this come from, doll? Something about it keeps calling to me, although I really couldn’t say why."

Cody's hand closed around the charm as he smiled shyly up at my mate. "This? Oh. Well, it was also my dads, but I doubt it's nearly ancient enough to meet the requirements, aye?"

I held out my hand. "If you don't mind, I'll just give it a quick look see. If it's calling out to River, then I feel that it deserves my attention."

Cody shrugged indifferently as he reached up to pull the necklace off. He passed it over without comment, and the moment my hand closed around it a collage of imagery flooded my senses.

"This is it, Cody. I hope this isn't a special piece for you, because this was definitely carved from the rock your shaman ancestor brought home from the circle that day."
