Autumn heads back down to the others, slightly bothered by Duncan’s comment. She isn’t sure if he was talking about Dustin’s scent or someone else. Hopefully, he will come to talk to her once he figures it out. Tomorrow is going to be a big day, and she hopes they get Lana back in time for dinner.
Autumn sits back on the couch with Blake, taking a deep breath of his calming scent. She’s so relieved that Duncan came to help. Without him, it would take way too long to hunt down Dustin. One of the three days given has already passed, so a sense of urgency takes hold.
“Well, now that it’s just the four of us, do you two have any questions about the mate bond?” Liam asks directly. No beating around the bush with this guy, Autumn gives him credit for wanting to get right to the point.
“What is it?” Connie blurts out. “I’ve never heard of such a thing, and it sounds supernatural to me.”
Liam rubs her back as she rests on the arm of the chair he’s sitting in.
