Chapter Forty-Nine

Lilah:Simone needs a safe space. I’m bringing her to the cabin.

Mal:Nope. No one goes to the safe house. Not even her.

Cass:She’s not the mole.

Lilah:My best friend would never be the mole. Are you two still looking for the heir?

Mal:Yep, and we’re running out of options.

Lilah:You could ask Mom. She’s lived in this town since before I was born—I think.

Mal:Great idea. Let me ask the woman who spreads rumors faster than the speed of light if she can help me with the Syndicate. That won’t scare anyone in town.

Cass:She can keep secrets. It’s how you ask.

Mal:Then you do it.

Cass:I will, and, Lilah, your friend, can go to the apartment. That’s safe and won’t give away our whereabouts.

Lilah:This is me rolling my eyes and judging you both. I’m safe.

Mal:We’ll decide if you’re safe.
