Chapter 35: Tense Greetings

Fyn waited until Rowan was out of hearing range before starting to speak. But instead of addressing Cass right away, he looked down at Burger.

“This is another thing that is gonna need to stay between us. Rowan would be in danger if she knew,” Fyn explained to the dog.

Burger almost seemed to nod at him. Fyn waited for the weirdness of the moment to hit him. But he quickly realized that he was starting to get used to the animal’s almost human-like behavior. Unfortunately, he wasn’t the only one that noticed.

“What the hell was that about?” Cass asked, startled.

Fyn returned his attention to his twin brother. For years he had been hoping for the day when they could see each other again. But now that it was here, Fyn couldn’t figure out where to start. Their father had been suspicious of everyone besides Fyn, and it was hard to shake that off. Even though Fyn knew there was no way Cass could be a part of the poacher’s group.
