DOING WHAT?!

LUCAS

“If she’s dead,he’s probably dissecting her,”Jake said.

“Can you all stop saying if?!” Anna asked, throwing her hands into the air and shaking her head. “She’s dead, has been for years now. If she were alive …” She looked down at her feet. “If she were alive, then I would’ve known.”

Would you have known, or would you feel guilty for not knowing and leaving?” Jake asked.

Anna pressed her lips into a tight line and pulled her gaze away, shaking her head again. “It doesn’t matter,” she whispered. “I left her there anyway.” After another pause, she looked back up. “Either way, if she’s not buried, I need to find her.”

I gritted my teeth at Tyler and Asher, pissed that they had marked her but I hadn’t yet. “You want us to raid his home to find Anna’s mom while that bastard wants to kill us?” I asked, eyeing how close Anna kept moving toward Tyler. She was grazing against his body, her fingers brushing against his knuckles almost subconsciously.

“Yes,” Tyler said. “Before James does.”
