Trevor shrugged.

“They’re letting me go,” he said. “Though they’re charging my dad with treason, apparently.”

Sloane’s mouth fell open, and Austin’s eyebrows shot up.

“Oh,” Trevor added. “And arson. Thanks for being my alibi.”

Austin and Sloane still stood there, wide-eyed and open-mouthed.

Sloane was the first to speak.

“Are the people in suits the FBI?” she asked.

Trevor nodded.

“It sounds like they’ve been keeping tabs on the Red Sky for a while,” Trevor said.

“Did they send that kid to try and take the wolf pack down?” Austin said, his voice a stage whisper.

Trevor shrugged again.

“They didn’t tell me their plan,” he said. “They just let me go. Now,” he said, rubbing his hands together, then wincing. “I’m starving. Can we go get dinner?”

For another moment Austin just looked at him, a funny expression on his face.

Then, slowly, he smiled, until he was beaming so hard it seemed like his face might crack.

“Yeah,” he said. “Let’s go on a dinner date. The three of us. In public.”

He leaned forward and kissed Trevor on the lips, right in the middle of the police station.
