“Ian,” I said quietly.

Nick growled loudly. His eyes were flickering from brown to black.

“Why the fuck are you talking to that human?!” he yelled.

Jake clenched his jaw, his eyes narrowing.

“I asked him to help me learn everything about Claudia,” I said calmly. “But that was before Gabriel told me the truth. I hadn’t had a chance to tell him that he could stop looking. I forgot to call him.”

“Does he know what you are?” Nick asked, his voice trembling.

“Yes,” I nodded. “But I didn’t tell him. He already knew.”

Nick growled and grabbed his hair with his hands. He started pacing the kitchen and cursing under his breath.

“Fuck, Minnie,” Jake said and ran his hand through his hair.

“What?” I asked, annoyed. “I didn’t do anything wrong.”

Their eyes snapped to me, but before they could say anything Gabriel walked in.

“What is going on?” he asked, looking between the three of us.

“Your sister has been talking to that fucking human from that hotel,” Nick said, pointing at me.

Gabriel’s eyes widened and he looked at me.

“Are you crazy?!” Gabriel yelled. “He could be working for fucking Victor!”

“He is not working for him,” I said calmly.

“Why?” he asked angrily. “Why are you talking to him?”

“He was helping me learn everything I could about Claudia,” I sighed, explaining again. “But then you told me everything and I forgot to tell him he can stop researching.”

“Did you tell him what you are?” Gabriel asked angrily.

“No,” I shook my head. “He already knew.”

Gabriel sighed and ran his hand through his hair.

“You are done talking to him,” he said sternly.

My eyes widened and I shook my head. “You can’t do that. He is my friend.”

Nick growled and started shaking.

“Nick, leave,” Gabriel said through his teeth. “Go cool down.”

Nick started at me and growled but after a few moments, he turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

“Aria I am not asking,” Gabriel said, turning back to me. “I am telling you.”

I felt anger rising and I wanted to scream at him. Who the hell did he think he was? He can’t tell me who I can be friends with.

Before I could argue, Jake grabbed my arm and led me outside.

I pulled out of his grasp and started pacing on the deck.
