Viona and | exchanged wary looks as Scott approached. Despite myself, | slid over to allow him to sit with us,

even though my heart was pounding.

“Scott,” | said, trying to keep my tone even, “I haven't seen you in a while. Where have you been?”

Scott sighed and ran a hand through his hair as he slid into the booth beside me. It was true; | hadn’t seen him in

weeke

“Noah sentoverseas, actually,” he replied, sipping his beer.

“Overseas?” | exchanged another glance with Viona, who was practically digging her fingernails straight through

her glass because she was gripping it so tightly. “Why did he send you overseas?”

He raised an eyebrow at me. “You don’t know?”

| gaped at him for a moment. “No, Scott,” | said sarcastically. “I don’t know anything about my husband's antics.

| thought you would have gathered that by now.

Scott cringed visibly and ruffled his hair again, taking a long drag of his beer. Beneath the table, Viona kicked my

ankle-it was all | could do not to yelp in pain and surprise, but when | met her gaze, | could see the whites all the

way around her eyes and | knew exactly what she was thinking.

How much had Scott heard? And how much trust could we have in him if he heard about the pregnancy?

When Scott had finished drinking, he set his glass down and wiped his mouth with a nearby napkin. “I probably

shouldn't tell you,” he said, causingto narrow my eyes, “but | will.”

“Okay. Spill.”

Scott sighed. “Noah sentabroad to look for your family doctor. Said he was missing and that he left under....

mysterious circumstances.”

Mysterious circumstances... | furrowed my brow, thinking back to the day | had found out about our family

doctor's sudden leave of absence, along with the incident involving WhiteRabbit. | had all but forgotten about

that whole thing, although it was always in the back of my mind in scapacity or another.

But most importantly, what was Noah's reason for wanting to find our family doctor? Whatever it was had to be a

pretty big deal if he was sending his own Beta and half-brother overseas to hunt him down.

“Why did he send you?” Viona suddenly blurted out, asking my question for me. “I don’t mean that in a bad way,

Scott. It just seems weird that he’d send his own Beta away to look for a doctor.”

Scott glanced over at Viona and shrugged. “Beats me. He just told| had to find him.”

“And? Did you?” | asked.

He shook his head. “No. I looked all over, followed every lead. Showed up at every hotel in the area, asked every

local, tracked down every last scrap of CCTV footage. The guy just... disappeared.”

Disappeared.

Just like WhiteRabbit.

| opened my mouth to ask Scott more questions, but it was obvious that he had told us all he knew-sol

shut it again. With a heavy sigh, | exchanged one last glance with Viona and took a sip of my drink,

|

“Well... Welcback,” | said, raising my glass.

“I'm glad to be back. Although, it’s a lot colder here,” Scott laughed. There was a pause as we all sipped our

drinks, and then he continued. “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop earlier, by the way. | just heard you mention that you

had to talk to Noah about something.”

Viona kicked my ankle beneath the table again. This t| wasn’t able to contain my yelp, eliciting a curious

glance from Scott.

“It's nothing, Scott,” | finally said with a wave of my hand. “It’s... personal.”

“Oh.” His eyes flickered betweenand Viona for a moment. “Well, if there’s anything | can do to help...

| paused, ready to tell him thanks-but-no-thanks, but then thought better of it.
