That Wasn't How Things Worked

Brennan was glad that taking Talori to the movies seemed to cheer her up. She was in a perfectly good mood again by Saturday morning when they met up with Harmony, Castian, and Piper at the marina.

"Do I want to know where you got this boat?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.

Harmony rolled her eyes. "I didn't steal it, if that's what you're wondering. This is the coven's boat. The one we use to meet with that merman Gar."

"…do you even know how to drive a boat?"

"Why do you think Piper is here?"

Aha. Brennan had wondered since she wasn't usually a part of their little group despite being one of the few at the witch coven who were aware of Talori being a mermaid. Having someone able to drive a boat was important.

Talori had seen boats but had never been on one before. As he wheeled her aboard, she looked around with her usual sense of wide-eyed wonder. "So this is what a boat is like? Wow!"

"Yep. How far out are we going, Harmony?"
