Chapter 18: Thanksgiving Dinner

“We are going over to the Miklos’s for Thanksgiving,” Parker’s mom told her, sticking her head into her daughter’s bedroom.

“Okay,” Parker said, smiling at her mother before Blanche disappeared again. Parker closed the book she was reading. She always liked an excuse to see Damien and she wondered to herself how Malakai felt about eating meals alone all the time, and if Damien or Lucien would keep him company out of courtesy.

She could see Damien being nice to Malakai and treating him like family. Lucien on the other hand…Parker laughed to herself at the thought.

Parker got dressed for a nice dinner and went to join her mother in the kitchen. Blanche was making a green bean casserole to bring, and she was warming up a pumpkin pie she’d made a few nights before.

“Didn’t Malakai say you didn’t need to bring anything?” she asked her. Blanche shrugged.
