I cock a brow. “Not that I feel the need to tell you, actually it has nothing to do with
you, so maybe take a hike,” I say, trying to control my annoyance.
“Say that again, I’m fucking-”
“Jai, come on, please quit this. We are one team guys.” Valerie says, but she still seems pale ever since she learned Sebastian was shot, which makes me wonder
why has it affected her so much. She isn’t a traitor, is she?
No, fuck why am I thinking that, unless we aren’t related, and this is a game that
Lawrence is playing to split us apart?
“I’m not leaving you with him, Babe.” He mutters.
Babe. I almost forgot that they’re fucking dating or something.
“I know, you never listen, but I agree, you do need to know what’s going on.” She
says, smiling up at him.
Do I need to? Now that it’s before us, I don’t know how to go about it. I run my fingers.
through my hair.
“Lawrence Walton mentioned that Blood Borns are born into three families. As in
how each triquetra has three points and there are two triquetras. Zaia and her
brother Zade.” I begin.
“Sebastian and his brother Gaultier and I don’t know if your family ever told you

if not knowing whether she should run or not.
“No, it doesn’t matter. We were lucky to have good parents.” I say quietly.
There’s a sudden tension in the room as Jai remains silent, and no one speaks.” Well, I’m going to head home. It’s been a long night. The remainder of assigning everyone their roles should be done tomorrow.” I say, thinking I need to talk to Mom

Jai cocks a brow as Valerie looks between us before she walks over to me.
“Should I?” I ask, smiling slightly at Jai’s annoyance.
She looks up at me and gives me a small smile. I’ve always known she’s been a no-
nonsense person, but she’s trying.
“I think I wouldn’t mind, actually.”
“Well, great… you can share a room with Jai.” She says.
“No. I’m coming to yours then.” Jai retorts.
Of course, that’s what he wants.
She simply smiles and shrugs. She might not be showing how she’s truly feeling, but
