“Willow, you know that you said you couldn't tell how I felt at the rest stop?"

"I really do, you know," he said, his voice rough.

"I know," I whispered back. "I do, too.”

“Language, language! How about this: One of you has kept a secret all
their life, and is doing so even now. One of you is a murderer—and I am
not speaking of a vampire, or a mercy killing, or anything like that. And
then there is the question of the true identity of Sage—good luck on your
research there!One of you has already had their memory erased—and I don’t mean
