I knew about her family, and it broke my heart for her. It’d been a huge ordeal. Her parents wanted to come visit, see Cedar Harbor, and meet Declan, but they couldn’t be around Raven when she slept in case something happened with her wolf. I understood why Declan insisted on the rule. It just didn’t make it any easier.

“It’s not you, you know that, right?” Nolan asked softly, his shoulder bumping into mine.

“I know. I just wish I knew how to support her better,” I admitted. “It just sucks.”

“Yeah, it does,” he replied. “But just be there for her however she needs. And just have fun. And maybe give her a safeword for an escape.”

I laughed. There was no way I was bringing up safewords to Raven. I’d probably find out something about Declan that I didn’t want to know.

“And try the rhubarb pie,” Finn said with a grin.

“No one likes rhubarb pie,” I shot back.

“I should make a video of me making rhubarb pie,” he mused. “Rolling the dough… kneading the dough… shirtless. Yeah, that’d go over real well.”

“Fucking manwhore,” Sam muttered, shaking his head. “Just keep your goddamn pants on and don’t burn down Mom’s kitchen.”

“Or,” Lucas said, “tell us when you’re going to film this naked endeavor and I’ll take the backside rendition.”

“I have a nice ass.” Finn shrugged. “No one’s going to argue. I do squats.”

“You’re a scrawny little shit with a flat ass,” he retorted. “No one’s impressed by that shit.”

“Lord help me,” I whispered and rolled my eyes. I tuned them out because the debate about the shape of Finn’s ass wasn’t something I wanted to partake in. Instead, I took out my phone to message Raven because screw what the Byrnes had to say.

How drunk is everyone already?

RAVEN: Okay LOOK.

That start. I laughed because I could only imagine what was going on.

RAVEN: My fiancé is half naked—which I am absolutely a fan of. Gray sweatpants are God’s gift to women everywhere.

Amen to that.

RAVEN: But Roan threatened to grab my ass to get Declan to fight him, I threatened to kick Roan in the nuts, Axel did something called the lumberjack tackle, Declan wrestled Axel, Roan is calling Cole “Daddy Cole”, Declan is buzzing hard, I’m buzz-buzz-buzzing, and Declan looks fucking HOT in gray sweatpants.

Let the Fall Games begin. Lol.

RAVEN: OH MY GOD, GINNY! Everyone keeps saying that!

It’s a thing.

RAVEN: Oh, and Alice punched Roan.

Why??

RAVEN: He called her hot mama.

That man has no filter.

RAVEN: It’s fun to watch him squirm around Violet though.

Violet’s there? He must’ve owed Sawyer something to have to bring her.

RAVEN: Holly is the clubhouse commodity, Declan is HOT in gray sweatpants, and I’m trying to talk him into getting on a motorcycle.

I snorted. There was no way Declan would ever get on a motorcycle. It was too dangerous. If he ever did, we’d all film it.
