What the hell was he supposed to do now?
Tomorrow was going to be incredibly awkward when he had to see her, and he would. He was on Elizabeth duty at seven.
With a myriad of curses, he closed the door, and wished he was anyone else than him. It was a constant letdown that he couldn’t be himself.
Carrying the takeout bag into the RV, he put it on the table, and curiosity was killing him.
What did she pick for them?
When he opened the bag, he knew that smell anywhere.
It was an array of his favorite Vegan Indian food. The woman had been trying, and his dumbass self couldn’t get the words out quick enough.
Sitting down, Caspian was at a loss.
He didn’t know what the hell to do now. This was a whole new world for him.
Oh, he had women check him out, but after he’d been icy and cold toward them, they never gave him another thought again.
But she had.
For some unfathomable reason, she still tried to spend time with him when he’d ghosted her on the reservation. Had there been a chance, it was gone now.
His father was right. He was an idiot for not knowing how to respond to people, and he’d spend the rest of his life alone because of it.
There was no fixing stupid.
This proved one single, solitary thing to Caspian. He was a walking disaster.
Oh, and he was going to forever be alone.
And that hurt.

The finding was ominous to say the least, and once seeing it, neither Gene nor Callen wanted Elizabeth anywhere out in the open. In fact, they weren’t feeling so great about being a target for this crazy either.
The words were ominous, and ones they wouldn’t forget any time soon.
It looked as if they were going to be going to war on this one.
Great.
Just what they needed.
Coming home had forced them to wade into one hell of a mire of craziness, and painted bullseyes on themselves.
And this was exactly why they weren’t so fond of returning here. The crazy didn’t just follow them, but it met them at the front porch.
It appeared the people behind this were more than willing to protect their little job of handling the‘Wendigo’, and willing to cross any line possible to protect it.
This was going to be a repeat performance of what happened the last time someone tried to stopThe Hollow.
