Hidden in the Shadows
“The contents of the letter he’d just opened were very similar to the letter he’d seen at Vestra’s. Only the topic of the blackmail attempt was different. He couldn’t for the life of him figure out how the extortionist had discovered the secret. It certainly wasn’t something he had ever shared with another soul. That someone had managed to ferret out something so private shook him to the core.
Once his initial adrenaline rush had passed and he calmed down enough to think, his common sense quickl...y reasserted itself. Dinner plans discarded, the salmon left in the fridge, he ran through all his options and finally gave in and called the one person he could rely on for discretion—Ethan.

While he waited for Ethan to arrive, Wyatt pulled the ingredients for chocolate chip cookies together and started mixing. The methodical process of following certain steps to create an end product others enjoyed helped him stay calm and center his emotions.MoreLess
