Chapter 31: Intruders, Part 3

The next morning, after Seth shook off the dream, he didn't join the others for breakfast, but chose to begin working in the garden right away. What would he say to Briana? Sorry I scared you half to death last night when I moved too fast. Or Sorry, Briana, I won't kiss you like that again unless you want me to. It all sounded pretty lame to him as he debated. He thought that the best thing to do would be to give her some time and start worrying about the black figure in the woods instead. He also needed some time to think and to sort things out.

Reese and Bryce soon joined him in the garden. Bryce brushed past him, pushing him over as he passed, sending

Seth crashing to the dirt.

"Cut it out, Bryce," Seth said, now just as tall as the elder male. "I'm not in the mood."

"Not in the mood? Oooooo ..." Bryce teased, sounding almost like a child.

"Cut it out, Bryce," Seth repeated, still trying to concentrate on his work.
