Lincoln, yours is mixed with grapefruit, while Landon’s is mixed with lemon.” Tia shrugs her shoulders as if the explanation is obvious, and maybe it is to her.

“That’s a weird combination, but it does’t matter. We are here to get to know you and we want you to get to know us. We have been waiting for you and we won’t let you go. Linc is right, anyone who doeesn’t approve can leave the pack.” Tia looks over to Landon and back at me. Her stomach grumbles loudly, causing my brother and me to laugh.
