Scout looked over at Zoey seriously. “You know what I mean. I didn’t know about Liam until after. If Valerie is like him, like you, I’m gonna need all the help I can get.” The thought alone terrified her, but the chances of Valerie have some sort of supernatural ability was almost ensured. “I can’t raise her alone. And, I hate to say it, but you’re the only person who knows everything about us. Whether we’re friends or not.”

If she couldn’t fight something — not that she ever tried not to — then the obvious form of defeat was flight. Zoey was horrified of the prospect. Her being the only person that Scout could talk real feelings to or go to for wolf facts was not something that she had expected to happen. Ever. She was starting to wonder why she had stopped Liam from going after the woman in the first place.
“I-I-I…” She was struggling to find the words in her mind, but her mouth was moving for her, releasing garbled sounds of shock.”I-I… What?”
