Chapter 49

“What’s best for me is to find out what exactly is going on here.” His voice drifted from the doorway, and he blocked the moonlight yet again from spilling inside. “And if I find out that it really is you behind this magic, I won’t throw you away next time until after I’ve ripped your heart out. Whether you’re my pet or not.”

Jesse blinked.

The doorway was empty again.

It hurt. Not the violence, but his words. Gideon had never doubted him before, and now he was all but openly accusing Jesse of something…appalling. Jesse pulled himself to his feet. Of course, it was silly to be hurt by that. Gideon couldn’t remember him. Gideon didn’t know that Jesse would never betray him.
