“You need to talk to Raquel. She’s done a shit-ton of research on cannabis and treating adults with special needs.”

“Really?”

He nodded. “She and Orion developed a strain that might help your brother.”

I bit my lip. “I’ll think about it.”

“You and Aero buddies now?”

“I don’t think we can go that far, no.”

“You gonna fill me in?”

I frowned. “On?”

“What happened between the two of you.”

“Nothinghappened,” I countered. “He sought me out at work and apologized for… well, everything.”

“What exactly did he apologize for?”

“I’m not going to tell you that,” I said. “It’s between him and me.”

Sundance crossed his arms with a scowl. “Don’t like that, Dimples.”

“And I don’t like that you sent Letti’s boyfriend to watch me.”

“What?”

I rolled my eyes. “I recognized him when I walked into Nocturn. I just couldn’t remember his name. Pinecone or something.”

“Snowcone,” Sundance provided. “He was there?”

“Like you don’t know.”

He grunted and I took another sip of my drink.

We stood in the middle of the great room, watching my brother play pinball… well, until Teddy was done with that and moving toward a side glass sliding door.

“What the heck?” I breathed out.

“Our bikes are parked out there,” Sundance explained, already rushing to catch up with my brother.

“Crap,” I breathed out and followed, setting my glass on a table by the wall as I passed.

Arriving outside, I found Orion helping Teddy sit on a bike close to the door.

“Riot. I called shotgun!” Teddy yelled, grinning from ear to ear as he held the handlebars. “Vroom, vroom.”

“Yeah, honey, that’s right,” I said, then turned to Sundance. “He calls shotgun when he wants the best seat.”

Sundance smiled.

I glanced back at Teddy. “Is he going to break it?”

Sundance shook his head. “He’s fine, baby. Orion’s got him.”

“He looks so happy.”
