Last Female Sypher and Her Brothers Friends

Chapter 182

Ronan

For the next hour, I answer questions without giving anything away, it’s a balancing act. Give enough information to into trust while

holding back enough to protect what matters.

By the time the meeting finally ends, my head is pounding, and my wolf is pissy because all he wants to do is art.

Goodbyes are exchanged, and the males return to their respective duties

“If you need me, I’ll be down in the forge, Elliot says.

“Don’t slow Ransom down,” I joke.

“I can’t help that I’m irresistible. Really, do you expect him to do the impossible?” he laughs as he heads out.

I shake my head at the male and stand to go check on Barric in the infirmary recovery room. He was responding well to the treatment,

which took a lot of tension off our band.

I move through the halls quickly, trying my best to avoid being stopped. It works somewhat. Im stopped twice by two pack members, but otherwise it is a straight shot to the room.

The recovery wing is considerably quieter when I enter. The scent of antiseptic fills the air as I walk past the beds, on which several

patients are resting.

Barric is sitting upright in bed, reading a book. He turns his head, and the moment he sees me, he snorts. “Well, look who finally

remembered I exist”

I laugh, taking the seat next to his bed. “It’s been ten hours, and Kade was with you this morning. I didn’t know you were so needy.”

“I’m losing my mind lying here with nothing to do. Let me complain a little.”

“Aww, do you want me to hold you to?” I taunt.

“Fuck off,” he tosses his book at me, and I catch it. Then he looks down at my hands. “You brought paperwork.”

“Just some notes we’ll go through later.”

He sits up. “I’m good enough to do it now.”

I give him a chastising look. “How are you feeling?”

Barric rolls his eyes with a huff. “Much better.”

I look over at him closely. I can see it. The color has returned to his face eyes une danes, and tests! well a strang

posture

“Good. It doesn’t feel the same without you. Too much space in the bed and the lack off anting sang

“Glad to know I’m missed.” His smirk settles something in my chest. “So what’s happening out there?

I lean back. “It’s a mess.”

“Descriptive.”

“I try.”

He rolls his eyes. “How’s Rick? Aria still taking to him?”

A grin spreads across my face. “Yes. Even Liam is warming up to him Burt the man sag of spiders. You see the

he’ll say next.”

“Excellent. We could use some laughs around here.

“He is also improving Aria’s training by miles.

His eyebrows rise. “Already?”

“It makes sense that another sypher could guide her the way no one else did

Barric pauses in introspection. “Do you think it’s possible there are more?

“I can’t say. Rick says he hasn’t met another in thirty years. But there is always a possibility that move are hiding.”

“I can’t imagine the life he’s lived,” Barric says, all amusement faded from his voice. “All those years hiding”

I nod slowly.

Neither can L

Birk spent years surviving in shadows, always looking over his shoulder and never trusting anyone enough to get too clear.

“The pups love him,” I say.” He gets a kick out of them as well. He’s kind of become the oddball old grandpa of the mountain.”

Barric grime, “I can sew that. You know, I’ve been thinking that maybe we’re looking at this wrong‘

“How so?”

“Everyone keeps focusing on the Assembly and the hunters and what they may or may not have been doing. But clearly, this attempt to poison us was a desperate move to weaken our numbers before facing off with us. And now we don’t just have one Sypher, we have two. A

fact they may or may not know yet.”

“What are you getting at?”
