chapter 98

"Has Leyanne said how much longer she needs?" I pull us back to our topic in hand, walking to her and kneeling to meet her face and Meadow deflates completely.

"She s ready to go whenever we are. She s as ready as she can be, and they re going over the same things until we say it s happening." That downward shuffle of her eyes tells me this is a confession of sorts. I eye her up and know with that admission that Meadow is the one who has delayed things. Knowing she didn t want me to be a part of this, she s made sure I thought there was still time to change the plan. Maybe she was holding out for the vampires to pull back and for the high lord to intervene… either way, I can tell she s kept this close to her chest, so I won t push us to do it.

This girl! Protecting me even by delaying reunion with her own mate. I can t be mad at her for that.
