The next afternoon, Yura and I headed to the airport to see Hughie off. As we walked him toward the entrance, I couldn’t hold it in any longer. I turned to him and asked, “Hughie, can you tell me who Ms. Sal really is?”

I had been wanting to ask him for a while, but out of respect for his feelings, I had kept quiet. If I didn’t ask now, I feared I’d never get the chance.

Hughie’s expression stiffened when I mentioned Sal’s me. He was silent for a moment before he finally spoke. “It’s nothing, really. Sal is your aunt–just an old acquaintance of mine.”

Aunt?

I frowned. This was the first time I had ever heard Hughie mention me having an aunt. And if both of my parents were gone, how could I have any other relatives? He had never mentioned anything like this before.

It seemed Sal might really be connected to me, but whether she was actually my aunt, I couldn’t say.

Just the revelation alone left me stunned.

I grabbed Hughie’s arm, my voice full of urgency. “Aunt? Hughie, you’re saying Ms. Sal is my aunt? Why didn’t you ever say anything about this before?”

Hughie grew quiet, and I quickly ran through possibilities in my head. Ms. Sal had such a close connection to Hughie. If she was truly my aunt, maybe he knew something about my parents.

I was overwhelmed with emotion, desperate to uncover the truth about what had happened and the memories of my past that had been lost.

My voice grew louder, raw with emotion, and a few werewolves nearby turned to look at us.

Yura quickly placed a calming hand on mine and whispered, “Rosaline, please calm down … We’re at the airport. If people hear you, it could cause trouble. Just keep your voice down.”

Hughie frowned, and after a long pause, he sighed deeply. Lowering his gaze, he gave a brief response.
