Chapter 243

“Yorick…” I begin.

“I will have words with Hacker. I know you’ve been working with him. Is he Alpha Lane?” he asks me.

I shake my head. “That’s Hijack.”

“Why were you on the phone with him?”

“He was prepping me for this meeting. He used my computer, so he’d have a trail to follow. He told me he made sure there was nothing illegal on it, so I didn’t have to worry,” I say.

He turns and looks at Hijack. He’s talking with Henry.

“No more secrets, Wendy. You’re underage. I’m proud of you for getting early acceptance to the Academy, but the Tech Team are NOT to take liberties with you.”

“They haven’t, Yorick. I swear. I worked with Tracker too. They’ve all been wonderful. I promise,” I tell him. “Please don’t tell Dad. He may not let me keep in contact with the Tech Team if he does and I KNOW Connor won’t. He’s already wondering who Alpha Lane is. Please Yorick,” I

plead.

Yorick is still glaring in the direction of the Tech Team. When I look, I see Hacker watching us.

Finally, Yorick turns and looks at me. “I’ll talk to Hacker. If he agrees with what I have to say, fine. If not, I’m telling Dad.”

I glance at Hacker, hoping he can see that I need him to get this right, before I nod at Yorick.

“If you don’t say anything to Dad and Connor, I could be part of the team that helps you get Cyra out of her alliance agreement,” I say, pulling out my ace card.

He immediately turns to look at me. “What do you know?”

“Hijack is following the money. He has some ideas. I’m not exactly sure what that means, but he’s letting me watch so I can learn. Please Yorick. This is important to me. You wanted me distracted from Henry and I am. Let me have this. It’s good for me,” I say.

“Replacing one obsession with another, or two others, isn’t exactly what I meant, Wen,” he says.

“I feel like I’m finding my way, Yorrie. You know as well as I do that it’s important to have a plan for your life.”

“What if Henry is your mate, Wen?” he asks.

“Then, I talk to him about giving me the year that I want to complete my education.”

I give him a smile, but it feels like my future lies in another direction. I would have loved being Henry’s mate before Yorick asked for my help. I couldn’t care less about the age difference between us. But now, I feel like I can find my purpose in life and maybe that purpose is
