From The Shadows (A Shadow Chronicles Novel) - Plot & Excerpts
I see what your priorities are, young lady—your brother, your friends, and then your old man.” I laughed to stifle the threat of tears, thankful my father was joking with me. “I’m sorry, Dad. I’ve been meaning to call or come by…” An acceptable partial lie: I’d wanted to talk to him, but hadn’t had the courage since I couldn’t tell him everything. “It’s alright baby girl,” he replied. “I was young once, believe it or not. So how are you? What have you been up to the last few weeks? Oh, your Mom told me about Mark’s truck being stolen—you know he got it back, right?” I looked across the wide driveway at my brother’s red Dodge Ram. “Yeah, I know. I’m just glad he wasn’t mad at me,” I said, telling my father what I was sure he expected to hear, even though it was not even close to the truth. A pang of guilt stung me but I knew that it couldn’t be helped. Dad didn’t know about the supernatural—he’d been told the night I’d been tortured but then had been made to forget by Lochlan, as he’d not handled the truth very well.
