Seamus let himself fall back onto the bed in his temporary room, sinking into the blankets as his thoughts refused to settle.
His mind kept circling the possibility of Andrew being involved in the fall of the Vampire Hunter Association and the Seven Great Covenants, and the more he turned it over, the more absurd it sounded.
Andrew was just a human.
The idea that a single man could cause that much ruin felt impossible, yet the conversation earlier had planted doubts that refused to leave him alone.
He sighed and covered his face with his hand, trying not to overthink everything. A sudden knock tapped lightly on the window.
He ignored it at first and reached for his phone, wanting to message his father to ask if he had already arrived in Lithium.
The knock came again, a little louder and a little more persistent, which pulled an irritated groan from him.
"Seriously?" he muttered as he sat up.
