The Dark Ones (The Dark Ones Saga 1) - Page 67

We'd gone to at least three bakeries, two Starbucks, bought flowers, berries, and finally ended up by the pier.

The building said Immortal Industries.

Talk about blatant.

"You ship fish?" I still couldn't believe it.

"Worldwide." Ethan grinned. "Disappointed?"

"The name needs work."

"Yes, well, I decided that sometimes the best way to hide is to do the opposite of hiding.

" He frowned. "You're cold?"

I shivered. "A bit."

He wrapped his arms around me. "It's Cassius."

"You lied to me."

His breathing slowed. "Eavesdropping is frowned upon — always."

"What aren't you telling me?"

"A lot."

"At least you're honest about that much."

Ethan went very still. My back was to him; his arms wrapped around my body, warming me from the inside out. "I'd have to show you — talking about it is too difficult."

"Is it scary?"

"No." His lips touched my neck. "Just very sad, embarrassing, a lot of other unfortunate emotions."

"Show me."

"Not here."

"Yes, here." I turned in his arms. "Eventually, you're going to need my help, right? You can't just keep information from me then expect the bond — or whatever we have — to make up for everything else. We're at least friends, right?"

His eyes widened. "Yes."

"And friends share."

"They do."

"And you drink from me."

"Shhh…" He pulled me closer. "Yes."

"So, you owe me this. Honesty, you owe me."

"You raised your voice." He sounded amused.

"Yeah, well… you make me angry."

Another heavy sigh. "If I show you, you may leave me."
