I had just dropped Abbie back to the castle and left her with Clarice when Liam found me. He was lean ing against my door as I walked toward it.

“Just curious, she reminds me of,” I growled at him.

“Is that part of the allure you seem to have toward her, because she reminds you of your dead mate?” Liam says and I eye him swigging from my bottle.

It whizzed through air, embedding itself in the bed head beside his head. Liam didn’t even flinch, just lifted an eyebrow at me.
