Isaac didn’t respond, focusing instead on drinking in silence. His bottle was empty in a few swigs, and he reached for Violet’s. She figured he had drunk enough, so no matter how much he insisted, she wouldn’t let him take it. Soon, the two of them were chasing each other around the top of Glimmering Tower, the earlier tension forgotten.

Violet never did tell Carissa about their conversation, though she hadn’t promised to keep Isaac’s secret. He didn’t want people to know, and had treated her as a good friend when he confided in her.

Max told Carissa, who found it strange. Why did Isaac keep going to that place? Did he know someone there?

Isaac looked up. “Nothing, just wandering around.”

“Around Silverstone Estate?” she pressed.
