Chapter 359

• Gia checked the mirror again to make sure there was no movement on the street. There had been very little communication over the radio and the waiting was killing her. She looked up at the roof of the house again, Creed was still sitting there since he’d done a wide sweep around the house. What was happening? She knew it was good that he sat up there, but he was looking in the backyard. There had been nothing on the radio since they said they were taking them back there. Turning, she looked to see Shaelan covering the man’s leg with white bandages. The smell of infection filled her nose. How had this man been injured? Had it been while he was abducting one of their own kind? She wanted to ask him, to confirm why she had to do this job, but Shaelan had given him a shot of something when he’d started to come to, and he hadn’t moved since.
• Bear stood in the open door, the tranq gun aimed at the man. With the first dart and whatever Shaelan had given him, he wouldn’t be speaking at all tonight, but Bear wasn’t taking any chances.
• Evanna had come around and got in the van and handed Shaelan the things she asked for. Gia wanted to ask her who Minn was, but after the quick explanation from Shaelan before she’d got here, Gia also didn’t want to intrude into things she didn’t quite understand. Evanna grabbed a bottle of water and got out of the van, she opened it and poured it over her hands, then drank the rest. “I can taste the rot in my mouth.” She said quietly.
