Chapter 504 

We ran for hours. I stayed well away from the pack house and the dead caves. Nix and Megan kept me company as I worked through everything that was bouncing away in my head. Megan laid her head on my lap as I sat against the tree that I attacked earlier. “Do you think they are still looking for us?” Her question was 

soft. 

“Probably not.” Nix called back. “I haven’t heard anyone in a long time, and they probably figured we needed space.‘ 

I shook my head. “They have to keep a low profile. No one can find out they are still alive.” I ran my fingers through her fur. 

She cocked her head to stare up at my face with one eye. “How does no one know the pack is alive?” She twisted, getting to her feet. “I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I have no idea how no one has figured out that the pack survived.” 

Nix slid to a stop. “I’ve never thought about it until right now. But Megan is right. You would think someone would have checked, right?” 

I snorted. “Hubris.” 

“What?” Both my wolves sounded confused. 

“I can’t be certain, but knowing the players…Aurora, Verity, Vince. Without ever meeting Garith, I can honestly say they all are the same. They are cocky. Full of themselves. And searching for a dead person is a waste of their time.” I looked at Megan. “Someone saw my dad die, and they took it and ran with it.” I raised a shoulder. “There is a ninety percent chance my dad is using magic to cover up his tracks, but it all boils down to the fact that they are too full of themselves to double check someone they think is dead is really 

dead.” 

Megan snorted. “Stupid.” 

I nodded. “But it works in our favor.” I sighed as I pushed up from the ground. 

Megan followed me. “Are you ready?” 

i nodded. “Spending a few hours pitying myself is enough.” I sighed. “But it’s time to face the music.” 

Nix chuckled. “I doubt it’s music waiting for you back home.” 

I pushed forward. “You are probably right.” I started running back to the pack house. “But if we are lucky, Rowan will be back at his castle, and I just have to deal with my father and Ronnie.” 

Both my wolves growled. “I can understand not telling us the truth for a bit. But to keep all this hidden away, and then to push us towards Rowan to at the very least forgive him, is where I draw the line.” Nix stalked toward the clearing. 

I chuckled. “You two talk to his wolf.” They both turned to me. “Did you know?” I thought I was joking, but as soon as the words left my lips, I knew I wasn’t. We had spent these last years working on growing our bond, but they had met Erubus behind my back. So maybe then knew. 

“I know you are hurting. But that hurt.” Nix settled back on her haunches. “I thought we were past questioning each other.” 

“That was before she found out we have been talking to Erubus behind her back.” Megan laid down on her stomach. “And before she found out, I had rejected Brandon in the first year of school without telling either of you.”

Nix looked between the two of us before she sighed, and then sank to her stomach. “Okay. I will agree that we have done a few things that might make you question us.” She laid her head on her paws. “But I can say with the upmost sincerity that I had no idea. Erubus never told me anything about him being Thoth.” 

Megan sighed, and that made my stomach clench. I stumbled over my footing as she turned to look at me. “I don’t know if you will even trust my words, Amy.” She looked down. “I know I haven’t been the most honest with you. But I swear, I didn’t know. I would have told you if I did.” 

Her words comforted me. “I trust you both.” I whispered back to them. “I just feel like if Ronnie, my mom and dad knew, who else knew? Did Toya, or Wendy? Did Cass?” 

“If Cass knew, she would have called. We know that.” Nix snorted. “Playing dead or not, we would have gotten a call. She wouldn’t stand by and let that happen to you.” Nix’s words released something in my stomach.

“I hope you are right.” We ran the rest of the way in silence. By the time we got back to the pack house, it was night. The house looked empty. Not one light on. I shifted as I opened the door. Lights burned my eyes. What the fuck?” 

I 

“Magic bitch.” Cass jumped on me. “I missed you so much.” I pulled back and then dove into her arms. 

“I missed you too.” 

She smirked. “I’ll have dinner delivered to your room. Go shower, then we talk.” She rubbed her hands together. 

“Okay!” I ran upstairs, excited to spend the night with my best friend. I ran into my bedroom and into the shower. I took the quickest shower ever, and wrapped myself in a towel before I made it back to my bedroom, turning on their lights. 

“You are going to need to put clothes on, rabbit.”
