whimpered as he snuggled her, but she refused to get that close to him. “You have to get cleaned up, baby.” He
whispered against her head, but she just shook her head no.
“As soon as | shower, he will be gone, his scent will be gone, and | can’t face that yet.” | furrowed my brow.
Greyson caught it, but just shook his head and mouthed the word ‘later’. | nodded once and tried to comfort my
friend. | patted her back, but she was still rigid.
“Please, leave.” The words sounded strangled, but she turned over and met Greyson's eyes. “Can you please

| smelt his fear before anyone else. “We will leave if you allowto do one thing?” | leaned over to catch her

going to follow him into the abyss. | wanted to.” She closed her eyes and | watched a tear track down her cheek.
“Don’t askto do that, baby.” Greyson’s voice was soft. “Don’t askto bury our pup and you. | wouldn't be
able to make it.” He leaned down so his face was against hers. “I'll leave. If you let an alpha command you not to

She shuddered. “Just that?” He nodded. “Fine. But not Amy. Alpha Gavin can do it.”
| was a little hurt, but | nodded and got up from the bed as my dad walked over. “Cassie, | command you to not

doctor.
“Why did you cout?” | looked at him as he closed the door behind himself.
“Her wounds were healing as soon as she woke up. Not fast, not by a long shot, but enough that | felt space she
requested.” He caught an Omega walking by. “Can you bringa chair, please?”

about.
Rowan and | told my dad everything that we saw, heard, and found Rowan hesitated for a second when he
started at when we found Cass in the clearing. “It looked almost staged.” | looked at him, confused.
“What?”
“What do you mean?” Ronnie, pushed up from the railing he was leaning on.
“The attack, the clearing, it looked almost staged. It was weird. I'm probably overthinking it all, but | don’t know.”
My dad watched him for a second. “Explain what you mean. Don’t worry about what it sounds like. Just tell us
what you remember.”
Rowan nodded. “I remember when | was a kid, my dad would have young Alpha’s and Beta’s cto the capitol

Greyson growled. “Are you accusing my mate of something?”
Rowan raised his hands. “Not at all. | don’t think she was involved in it all.”

Ronnie paced. “I feel like we are missing something...”

“Are you sure?” My dad lifted a brow. “Because magic is very useful in hiding things.”
