and went in search of Tah. He found Tah and Reno in the office.
 Anyone tailing you? Tah asked as Logan stepped in.
 Not that either one of us saw, Logan said.  Clara never picked up on it again. What did I
miss? Zane said Finn s awake?
 Awake and moving, Tah grunted.  Whatever is in that shit the Professor concocted is
powerful. It s like looking at someone who was never injured.
 His face? The bruises? Swelling? Logan asked.
 Gone. All gone, Reno said.  The plan was to operate as soon as he was stable enough. Diane
said within a few hours he was fine. Hell, you wouldn t even know he d been stabbed except for the
scar on his stomach. Whatever the Professor s been working on is some serious shit. We don t even
heal that quickly.
 Wow. Logan whistled.  That s a little scary.
 You don t know the half of it, Tah said.
 Well? Logan prompted.
 We were hoping to find out what happened from Finn. Find out who took him. We suspect
hunters, but was it the Blanes or someone else? We were hoping to see if he remembered who came
in and killed the guys holding him.
 He looked pretty bad. Maybe he wasn t conscious? Logan suggested.
 Who knows? Tah said, then dropped a bomb.  He has no memory.
 What? Logan asked.
 Last thing he remembers is getting Reno s message and heading here to find us. Nothing
since, Tah said.
 Jesus, Logan uttered.  That s months lost. Is it from the shot?
 The Professor isn t sure. At this point, we don t know if he ll remember eventually or forget
more, Tah said.  The Professor s running more tests, he added with disgust.
 Whatever the outcome, Finn s alive, Tah, Logan said.  That counts for something. Besides,
have you thought that maybe it has little to do with what the Professor gave him and more to do with
his mind protecting him? You saw what they did to him. Hell, would you want to remember how you
got like that?
Tah sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. He seemed to be doing that a lot lately.  I don t
know, he admitted.  I was hoping for answers. It would help if we knew if it was the Blanes who
took him or not.
 Zane said he took pictures. Have Amia look. Logan glanced at Reno.  She s seen worse, I m
sure, and if it s the Blanes, she might recognize someone.
Tah looked toward Reno.
 Yeah, Reno agreed.  She might be able to. I ll have Zane show them to us.
There was a time when Logan would have teased Reno about the  us , asking if Amia was
allowed to do anything without Reno. But now that Logan was mated, he understood.
 Anything else? he asked.
Reno shook his head.  So far it s just the memory.
 He s already demanding to get out of the labs and help out, Tah stated.  I think he might be
worse than you as a patient as far as Diane is concerned.
Logan laughed.  I was pretty rotten to her.
 Knock, knock, Clara said, pausing at the door.  Am I interrupting?
 No, Tah waved her in.  I wanted to see you, get your take on what you felt when you and
Logan were in town. Where were you when it happened?
Logan shared a glance with Clara, taking in her big eyes and understanding she was not down
with telling Tah and Reno they had gone to the toy store. Of course just remembering all they d picked
up had his dick perking up again.
 We went to the North Plaza, Logan said.  It was the closest place that had all we wanted to
pick up.
 That s on the edge of town, Tah said.  There s a touch of woods to the left of the parking lot.
Anyone could have been hiding and watching.
 I didn t feel a sense of danger, Clara said.  I don t know if that makes sense or not. It wasn t
like I felt threatened really or anything along those lines. It was just a knowing that someone was
watching us.
 I understand that, Reno said.  I felt the same way when you were in the woods with Amia
and me. I knew you were there, but didn t feel a sense that you were there to do harm.
 Exactly, Clara said, then narrowed her eyes.  You think it was another shifter?
 Makes sense, Reno said, glancing at Tah.
 Wait, Logan interjected.  Wouldn t you have caught a scent, like you did with Zane?
 You can scent other shifters? Tah asked.
Clara nodded.  You can, too. All you have to do is know how to sort through the scents around [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
