He pointed to it. “Come to the station tomorrow?”
“I already gave a statement.”
“You’re Channing’s sister, yeah?”
I was confused. “Yeah…”
Another point to the card. “Come tomorrow and give me another statement.”
Cross frowned. “Why?”
“Because the case against the Red Demons just fell apart.”
“What?”
Wait.
What?
“Harper was the witness?”
The detective didn’t respond, just echoed, “Tomorrow.”
“She’ll be there.”
I glanced at Cross, and he shot me a look.
There was more happening that I wasn’t understanding, but fine. I’d wait and find out.
Jordan moved in. “It’s late. We have a long drive. Can we head back?”
The detective nodded, starting to back away. “For those who were here, if they gave a statement, then they can go.”
He headed back.
Blaise came over, Aspen remaining back with Zeke.
He asked me, “Aspen said what you confronted Harper about. That true?” His jaw was clenching, and his eyes were fierce.
“Yeah, but it looks like it was just him with the plans. The other guys backed away once I started talking about it. They thought they were coming for a goodbye party since he was getting kicked out of the frat.”
“Fuck that. Some fucking goodbye party.” He shared a look with his brother. “I bet you a million fucking bucks that he was going to drug the guys, too, get them all in one go. Hurt me. Hurt Aspen. Hurt the house that kicked him out. Such a fucking piece of shit.”
“Yeah, well, he’s gone.”
“Aspen said those guys were scary.”
I felt a kick in my gut. I couldn’t say anything. Not to anyone. Not ever.
I nodded, letting out a shaky breath. “Yeah, they were.”
Cross’ fingers flexed into my skin, and I knew he’d felt my reaction and would ask me about it later.
“Okay. Well.” He looked back. “We’re taking off. We can get most of the girls with us, but Jade said she drove.”
Jordan overheard. “I’ll go with her.”
“Us too.” Zellman was next to Angeline. He was holding her, and she was firmly snuggled up to his side.
That was interesting.
Jordan caught my look and shared a small grin with me.
I snorted.
He laughed.
Blaise looked between us, then held his hands up. “I don’t want to know.” He went back to Aspen and soon, they were heading out. Alex came over and said he was leaving as well. Veronica was headed back with Blaise, Aspen, and Zeke.
“Alone, huh?”
