family members. That’ll keep Kennet or his cronies out.”
“Elizabeth?” She was a witch who I’d m et before my duel with Antoine.
“Yes, she’s adept at spells of this type.”
Rob spoke up, “I think we can move on to the subject of Brina. Ethan, Jackie, are you agreeable to taking a summer class at the High School in Gasquet?”
I looked at Ethan and laughed. “As long as he doesn’t make up horrible stories about his twin sister and all the dumb things I did growing up.”
“Well, there was the time…”
“I’m warning you now, brother , don’t mess with me.”
“Ok, fine. You’re no fun.” I threw a grape tomato at him and he caught it gracefully in his mouth making the rest of the group laugh.
Rob continued. “ Sinc, when you’ve worked out the phony names, ID’s, transcripts, birth certificates, social security numbers and whatever else they need, you’ll call me and I’ll register them. Sorry, but you only have three days.
“I got it covered.” To an outsider, Sinc can appear arrogant, but we knew she was a genius with anything of this nature and that those documents would be ready and perfect in two days. It wasn't her work of choice, however. With a Masters Degree in forensic science, she’d hoped to eventually be able to do more work for the team in that area rather than just computer generated forgeries, research and security.
“Kyle, you need to make sure that whatever we give Jackie as protection will be easily conce aled. The High School may have metal detectors.”
“Sure Rob, no problem.” I could see Kyle’s wheels turning behind his dar k eyes. He loved this kind of challenge. His often immature behavior could sometimes make you forget that he was a weapons expert and had invented quite a few extremely high tech devices that even the military might be interested in. Of course, as shifters, we had no desire to get involved with human politics.
Rob continued , look at me and Ethan. “I'm renting you a house just outside of town and getting you an old car. You'll say you live with an uncle who's out of town on business. You two need to sit down and come up with a plan. You might want to go into Gasquet tomorrow and hang out at the local dives, just so you’re seen together.”
“I already have some ideas." Ethan, our team strategist, was not just another pretty face.
“Come over around noon tomorrow, bro, and we’ll put our heads together.” He nodded and laughed.
Garrett leaned forward. “Rob and I are stepping back as far as Brina is concerned, but I'd like to remind you of a few things. She's the daughter of a fae Elder and therefore very powerful. Don't try to fight her. You'll lose. You're there to get information. We need to know where she is, the reason she's there, and if she's responsible for Drew’s death. We’ll tell Liam or Lord Caelen as soon as we have any information at all. We can’t violate the alliance."
His expression turned serious and he glanced in my direction. “Rob and I will be working on finding Kennet. He's left Faerie. You'll call us immediately if you see him or even suspect he's near.“
"Sure Garrett." Ethan answered for all of us.
Garrett relaxed and cracked a smile. “As far as Brina is concerned, we’re here if you need us, for advice or for backup. You all know what you have to do and we trust that you’ll be able to handle this.”
The four of us looked at each other and grinned. This was going to be so cool.
Chapter Seven
The next day at noon on the dot, Ethan and I sat at my kitchen table eating boxed mac and cheese, both of us missing Liam's cooking. I'd made a salad and some iced tea but it was still kind of a sad offering. Ethan, being a good sport about the food, had just finished telling me about the latest zombie movie he’d seen with Sinc a few days ago. It sounded like something Garrett and I might have a few laughs over. Hollywood was hopeless when it came to anything realistic regarding
