“And what if it—” was Liam’s.

“I’m okay with that too.”

My brows pinched together when I noticed the relief in his eyes with the words he spoke. His lips parted, ready to explain further, but when his eyes glazed over, I knew we couldn’t talk about it further.

“Conner has some news,” Isaac sighed and remained rooted on the spot. His eyes drifted to the same place where those creatures hid, but still, there wasn’t a question coming.

I should have told him, but my lips remained sealed.

I was doing the same thing he did, keeping secrets.

Secrets that could tear us apart.

Chapter four

Test

Atfirst,Iwasbrave, but now I was pacing in the small bathroom, wringing my hands together while dread almost consumed me.

What if it was positive?

Fuck. I was sweating, nausea rose, and time seemed to have slowed down.

The second Isaac and I returned, the others were ready to head out again. Not wanting to stay here any longer because of the stranger’s words in the supermarket.

However, I couldn’t sit in the car for hours not knowing. Not knowing if something was growing inside me. His or Liam’s.

Please, moon goddess, don’t let it be Liam’s.

What would I do if it was? I would still keep it; even Isaac was okay with it. Or at least he said he was.

Why was my life such a mess? Oh wait, I know why. Liam.

My mind was going in circles, and I couldn’t find an escape.

It didn’t matter how hard I tried, my thoughts wouldn’t release their hold over me. The questions I didn’t have an answer to.

So many questions. So many secrets.

Secrets.

I still hadn’t told Isaac about the stranger, and I didn’t know why. Maybe the stranger had wormed his way into my head. Making me doubt myself and fueling this never-ending confusion.

However, that didn’t explain what Isaac didn’t know already, how he didn’t recognize his scent. Did it have anything to do with the burned skin I smelled?

Did they perform some sort of mojo to keep Isaac in the dark?

I flinched, the timer on my phone going off, the sound echoing off the tile walls.

This was it.

No turning back now.

My hands trembled, and I held my breath when I took a peek, knowing that moment could change my life. Our life.

I didn’t know if I should feel happy or sad.

It was negative.
