The day before yesterday, when her mates found out she wasn’t dead, everyone was relieved, but Hudson, besides looking happy, didn’t reach out to her and barely said a word.

“Ms. Crawford, you’re up. Hungry, right? I’ll cook now, just hang on a sec.” Ever since Hudson had learned to cook hot meals under Annelise’s guidance, he basically took over lunch every day. He came up with all sorts of variations, mixing in all kinds of wild greens, like he was trying each one at least once.

Today, Annelise said, “No rush. How about we talk for a bit?”

Hudson pressed his lips together. “Sure. You go

first.”

“Not here. Let’s go inside. Just the two of us,” Annelise said.

Hudson caught the scent of orchids on her. He frowned slightly. “Ms. Crawford, you and Evan, that… did you… You know, copulate?”

Annelise also wanted to ask, “Little fox, you didn’t come back last night? You go out during the day and at night. Where are you even going?”

She looked down and suddenly saw Hudson’s hands, covered in tiny cuts. She gasped. “What did

you do? Why are your hands all scratched up? Did someone hurt you when you went out?”

Hudson hid his hands behind him and shook his head quickly. “No, I’m fine. Doesn’t matter. I’ll still make lunch for you.”

And yet, why does he even bother cooking?

Annelise stepped closer to Hudson. The orchids’ scent hit his nerves like electricity.

I desperately want Ms. Crawford to carry my scent. But in my opinion, I know I can’t. Doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks-on this front, she’s always going to care more about Snowball. I feel like I’m just a stand-in for him. Whether I’m her mate or just a little brother, I’m always the substitute. If Ms. Crawford likes me, it’s only because she likes Snowball. If she doesn’t, well… now that Snowball’s back, 1 don’t even measure up to him.

So Hudson took two steps back. “It’s really nothing.”

But as he spoke, a voice rose inside him anyway. “You like her. You only like her. You want her to like you back. Kill Snowball. Only if Snowball dies will you stop being the replacement.”

Hudson froze.

What is that voice? Where does it come from?

“Who?” he asked.

Annelise looked confused. “Who are you talking about? What’s wrong?”

“Uh, nothing.”

Just then, Adrian started yelling again, “Ms. Crawford, you really need to come look at me. I’m in pain. I mean down there. I can’t even…”

Annelise was genuinely annoyed. “Did you mess around again?”

“No. I’m dying. Please save me. It hurts so bad.”

Annelise did not want to deal with Adrian, but Hudson nudged her anyway. “Go check on him. I’ll start cooking.”

With a sigh, Annelise went to the third bedroom. Adrian’s complexion was pale, sweat beading on his forehead.

And the moment he saw her, he tried to pull his pants down to show her.

Annelise snapped, “It’s broad daylight. What are you taking your pants off for? I’ll just check your pulse.”

Adrian looked utterly lost. It hurts down there. If I am not taking my pants off, then what am I taking off?

“What do you mean, checking my pulse?” he asked.

“You…” Alright. Annelise knew the shifter world did not have a term like that. So she said, “Just give me your paw.”

“Oh, oh, oh!” Adrian stuck out his fair wrist.

Annelise pressed twice and said, “Your energy’s blocked, not from holding it in. Bunny, you get angry way too easily.”

Adrian thought, What’s the difference? Last night I heard you two going at it. I listened all night, my teeth itching with rage, so I rubbed my bunny teeth against the blanket.

“Come on, show me now,” she said.

“Alright.” Adrian pulled down his pants.
