Chapitre 49: Just Admit It

When Caleb had left, Galen had made three promises. The first was to fulfill his duty as a representative of Summer. The second was to watch over Ashleigh. The third was a request Caleb had made almost literally as he drove away.

“There is one more thing that I need you to do while you are here,” Caleb said as he climbed into the car.

“Name it,” Galen said.

“You need to find out everything you can about the wolfsbane. When it was used, how much, how many casualties, how they were treated. Everything.”

“I get why you want all that, but this is Winter. So they aren’t exactly going to be opening up the doors and rolling out the red carpet for me,” Galen replied.

“Perhaps not,” Caleb said as he closed the door. “But Ashleigh did mention that her friend is a doctor and the one who treated her.”

“Her friend?” Galen asked.

Caleb started the engine, and Galen stepped back.

“Your dance partner,” Caleb replied with a wink before the car pushed away down the road.
