“Don’t let your dads see you checking him out like that,” | teased, and her face flushes red.
“I'm not checking him out,” she huffs.
“I don’t blyou, he’s cute, and seems to be interested in you,” | shrug.
“Eww, Mum, you're old, you can’t say boys my age are cute” she scoffs.
“Hey, less of the old, I'm only 35, plus, | didn’t mean it like that. He's a good-looking boy,” | defend.
“Well, he’s human, and I'm not interested in anyone apart from my bonds anyway,” she says, but her eyes
wander to the boy again.
“Mmhm, | think you forget | was your age once,” | laugh before leaning back in my floating ring and closing my
eyes to relax.
A sudden splash besidehasopening my eyes quickly again, and I look just in tto see Harper emerge
from the water, looking flustered.
“What happened?” | laugh as her floating ring floats away.
Harper turns to face me, giving her back to the lifeguard and her expression is serious.
“Mum, he’s a Grey,” she whispers and my eyes dart to the teen boy, studying him.

“How do you know?” | ask.
“Because when his eyes met mine, they flashed with a blue glow. I'm serious, Mum, | know what | saw,” she
says, glancing back towards him.
“Okay,” I nod, and then | open the mind link with my guys.
“We have a potential Grey here. He looks around 17 or 18, wearing a red and yellow lifeguard uniform with
trainee written across the front. He has reddish brown hair and is watching the relaxation pool,” | tell them.
“On my way,” Deacon responds.
“How do you know?” Luke asks.
“Harper said his eyes glowed blue when they made eye contact,” | say.
“Oh, | bet they did. Wait forD, I'm coming,” Mason grumbles, and | suddenly fear for the boy's safety.
“Your dads are coming to check him out,” | reassure Harper.
“Tell them not to scare him,” she says quickly, givinga worried look.
“They won't.”
“Really? Because they look pretty scary to me,” she says, pointing behind me.
| turn to look and watch as Deacon and Mason walk with purpose. Deacon's face is his serious headmaster one,
and Mason's jaw is set tight, his eyes narrowed, and his dark tattoos make him look even more intimidating.
Crap.
“Go easy guys, he’s just a kid,” | say into the mind link and Mason's eyes find mine. He looks overand then
Harper before his fists clench.

“I know what kids his age think,” Mason grunts.
“You'll embarrass Harper, just be nice, he’s not done anything wrong,” I try.
“He looked at our daughter,” Mace snaps.
“That's his job, he’s supposed to watch everyone,” | argue
“Don’t be starting any withoutthere to see it. We are trying to round up the kids, but they're all
swimming in different directions,” Theo complains.
“See, they scared him, he’s running,” Harper whines, and sure enough the boy has seen D and Mason
approaching and has taken off in the other direction.
He glances back over his shoulder, looking worried before he swipes a card over an electronic lock and darts

“Well done,” | say sarcastically into the mind link when Deacon tries to follow through the locked door. “Round
the kids up, we will find him,” Mason says, and | sigh as they look for a way to get to the boy.
Almost a whole week without any Grey , | should have known it wouldn't last.
An hour later all the kids are dry and dressed, and we sit in the poolside café, having a drink whilst we wait for
Mason and Deacon to return. Harper seems on edge as she constantly checks our surroundings, chewing on her
bottom lip and bouncing her leg.
“He’s gone, none of the staff know where he went. We have a nand address for him though, and I'm going
to send a team to check it out,” Deacon says, approaching the table.
“What's his name?” Harper asks.
“Dillon Metcalfe, well spotted, Harper,” Deacon smiles at her proudly.
