Lmao, exactly the kind of plot twists we like though 👏

But you're right, it's so satisfying to have stuff to catch up on though 😉

She nodded to reassure him. “You go, I’ll try and find coffee before Marven arrives.”
Wolfgang winced.
“Try the room behind you. She said she wanted to be reminded of what she was working towards.”
And indeed, Isi recognised the object that stood proud in the middle of a counter…

She didn’t know what to do now. Thank him again? Start releasing the sobs haunting her chest? Launch herself into the tunnels? The last one was most appealing.
“Marcel will be here in a minute. Meanwhile, I can only encourage you to brainstorm. Out loud if possible. Bouncing ideas around helps.”

“Adelyn and I have raked through most of the places anyone could have been hidden out here, in the open. I’ve distributed the rest evenly. Good with you?”
Isi opened her mouth to answer, throat dry: “Yeah, thank you.”
“I’ve told Seki which side your group is taking, sent him the pics of the map.”

Wolfgang stepped back towards her, pulling her back into the house and its strangely soundproof walls.
“So, Lou and Marcel searched the whole of the first level of the tunnels between yesterday and your arrival today. Kiril said he covered the east portion, the one that opens up into the cliffside.”

Kiril gave the young man a nod, signifying they were ready to go, if he was. And Jake said quickly, before splitting: “And she ditched me, early the second morning. Said it was to get breakfast but I don’t know, it seemed like she’d been gone a little long for a couple of pastries.”

Both of them fell in awkward silence, the other wolves taking their assignments from Wolfgang.
“She called Marven a couple of times…” Jacob finally spoke again, eyes lost in memories.
“That’s 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨.” Isi whispered, thinking of all the conversations she’d had with Rory about the Ghost.

“Nothing weird at any point? Did she seem on edge or…” Isi didn’t even know what she was fishing for. Looking at Jacob, he didn’t either. He looked almost embarrassed not to be able to help. “It’s fine, don’t worry too much about it kid.”
“I’ll keep trying to remember, I’m sorry.”

I have a crush on Renee 😌

“We went to Evergreen Harbour, for me to meet with my birth mom… She didn’t want to let me go alone and my dad was busy that weekend. We stayed at a motel, went to the restaurant for lunch and had dinner at my mother’s both days. I don’t know what else to tell you?”

Turning to the second of her worries, she watched Jake come closer.
“Tell me everything about the couple of days you spent with Rory away from town before Lou’s birthday, please?”
Rory had understood 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 when Isi’d told her about being attacked. She needed to find out what it was.

“Any chance you could go and get her?” Isi asked, trying very hard not to push her luck. The list of orders she was distributing was growing longer by the second.
“I’ll be back soon.” He squeezed her shoulder before stepping away. And she felt fondness settle in her heart. Gruff, but not unaware.

Block away, we don't need this kind of energy around

“Lily, you’re staying up here, we need someone to warn us if anyone comes home of their own accord. Wolfgang, can I trust you to assign each group and area of the map? Jacob, can I speak to you? And does anyone know where my sister is?”
Marcel stepped closer: “Idrina’s been staying at Lux’s.”

Good enough for her. She wasn’t sure he was telling the truth or if he was simply pretending to be a concerned father while really being Ghost. But she’d find out.
“Perfect. The trios will be: Kristopher, Wolfgang and Adelyn. Lou, Jacob and Kiril. Marcel, Seki and me.”
No one protested.

Kristopher didn’t flinch: “No matter what’s transpired between us, I consider Rory my daughter. And if the best way to help her is to make sure our wolves work together, I won’t stand in the way. I am in no way threatened by you, might I add.”
Forcing a smile on her face, Isidora nodded.

Why was he was so conciliant? He’d only ever demonstrated hatred toward her.
“That’s fine. What about you? Will you follow my plan?”
Isi didn’t have time to beat around the bush.
She felt Wolfgang and Marcel freeze more than she saw them. It seemed everyone else’s ears pricked up too.

“Please, be aware that the Ghost could attempt to stop any of us.”
She fell silent as the wolves finished taking turns to point to the map.
Kristopher walked to her after his and said, low enough not to be heard by others:“Lily can’t go in the tunnels. Past trauma.”
Isi took a second to look at him.

She finished her speech, unsure if anyone would actually listen but wanting to cover all bases anyway.
“Work methodically from the point of entry into the tunnels you’ve been given and text me with the update of covered ground as soon as you feel the moon take its hold on you.”

As weird as that seemed, she hadn’t expected trouble. After all, their collective goal was to find their friends. If anyone seemed to disagree, they’d jump high on the list of potential traitors.
“Right, I’ll make groups of three, remember to always stay within each other’s sight.”
