I knew King would rip my ass a brand new one if I no less than didn’t attempt to warn Gator. I needed to no less than say one thing. Something.

“Uh, Gator, you don’t need her. Dev isn’t good.”

“Shut it, bee-boy,” Dev clipped, standing her floor. “I can deal with this soiled pond water Cajun myself.”

Sighing, I shook my head.

“Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

“Come to Papa, Cher’, and I’ll allow you to play with an actual Gator.”

Welp… I attempted.

Rolling my eyes, I left the soon-to-be-dead Bourbon King to his destiny. Could God have mercy on his soul.

Passing King’s workplace, I heard him shout, “Enigma, get in right here!”

Sighing, I checked out Sean, who regarded enthralled at the whole lot happening round him, then stepped into King’s workplace to search out Priest sitting on the sofa together with Mr. Potter.

“Yeah?”

“How are you holding up with the whole lot happening?”

“I’m good. Why?”

Mr. Potter obtained to his ft, smiling as he walked over to me. “Come on Sean. Let’s go discover Granny.”

Handing my little man over to his grandfather, I checked out King and Priest as Mr. Potter left, closing the door behind him.

“What’s occurred?”

King took a deep breath earlier than saying, “Mike simply known as. Somebody set Sugar’s home on fireplace.”

“Excuse me?”

“The fireplace division is attempting to place it out, however Mike mentioned it’s a complete loss.”

Grabbing the again of a chair, I sat and let what King simply mentioned sink in. How within the hell was I going to inform Shug that the home she raised Ben and Sean in was gone? She liked that place. Every thing was in that home. All the youngsters’ child footage, toys, garments, the whole lot Shug cherished and saved since she had Benjamin.

Now it was all gone.

“There’s extra.”

I steeled myself.

“Mike acquired an nameless tip final night time. He discovered medication in one of many lockers on the Irish Rose Tavern. Yours.”

“What the hell?” My head snapped up. “You understand me, King. I don’t mess with medication. Hell, brother, I get squeamish when I’ve to get an Epi shot. What the hell is occurring?”

“That’s not all, Enigma,” King added, leaning ahead. “Mike additionally discovered medication on the bowling alley, Sugar’s Creamery, and Bailey’s store. Whoever is doing that is systematically attempting to remove our livelihoods. Mike is protecting a lid on the whole lot for now, however you, higher than anybody, understand how quick rumors fly in Rosewood.”

I nodded.

I did.

The second phrase obtained out what was occurring, the residents of Rosewood would begin speaking after which it might be sport over. Devlyn was proper. This Rosewood was worse than Peyton Place.

“Enigma, I would like you to assume. Do you have got any thought who’s doing this?”
