Where there’s smoke, there are burning cookies.

Davey had one goal in mind when he joined the mutants—enter every lab he possibly could and find his best friend. Evan has been missing for years, but Davey never lost hope he would find him. He has to, because it’s his fault Evan ended up in a cage.

Orion only ever wanted a peaceful life, but instead, he was forced to be a hunter. Now he finally has a chance at the life he dreamed of, and he’ll cling to it with both hands.

When Davey bursts into Orion’s bakery to save him from burning cookies, he doesn’t expect to meet his mate. He’s not quite sure what to do with Orion when his focus should be on finding Evan, but maybe he can let go of his guilt and give himself and Orion a chance to be happy.

He and Orion might lose each other if he can’t.

“Is everyone ready?” Moore asked, looking at the people gathered around him.

Davey ignored him. Moore always checked if everyone was ready before they left, which was ridiculous because they knew what to expect. Of course they were ready. They’d been raiding labs and saving people for a while now.

Davey swallowed and bounced on the balls of his feet. He was more than ready to go, but he had to wait for Moore to give the signal. As soon as Moore did, Davey turned to Teddy, who held out a hand and rolled his eyes.

“I don’t get why you’re always so eager to go,” he said as others touched him.

“Why wouldn’t I be? The labs shouldn’t exist, and we’re taking them down one by one. I don’t know about you, but it’s the perfect job for me, and I take great pleasure in making sure those doctors won’t hurt anyone ever again.”

Teddy didn’t look convinced, but there wasn’t time for them to talk. As soon as everyone was touching him, he shimmered them away, and the raid was on.

They couldn’t afford to be distracted, which was good because Davey didn’t want anyone to start asking questions. He wasn’t ready for people to find out why he was always so eager to go on raids. He didn’t know how Moore would react if he did, and he needed to do this.

He stepped away from Teddy once they landed because he wanted to avoid more questions, and he huddled close to Olga instead. She glanced his way and arched a brow.

Maybe he shouldn’t have chosen her.

“What do you know?” he asked her.

“Who says I know anything?”

“You see the future.”

“I don’t see all the future.”

“No, but you have that face, and I know you know something.”

She grinned. “Do I?”

She was infuriating. She saw the future, but as far as Davey knew, she’d never been able to control that power. She saw whatever the universe wanted her to see, so it probably had nothing to do with him.

But it also could have everything to do with him.

There was no way for Davey to know, and he wasn’t sure he wanted to. Olga was secretive about the things she saw. She always said that she didn’t want anyone to do things differently just because of what she saw, especially when it came to their private lives. As far as Davey was concerned, he didn’t want to know if anything she saw involved him. He didn’t even want to know if she saw his mate, because he wasn’t ready to meet whoever that was. Maybe he never would be.

He definitely didn’t want to meet his mate before he managed to rescue Evan.

He swallowed and took a careful step away. Olga snickered, but Davey ignored her. That was made easier by Moore getting everyone’s attention and the small crowd around them quieting down.

“You know what to do,” Moore said, gesturing at the lab they were standing in front of.

It was hidden between the trees. That had to have been done on purpose, because the only thing that Davey could see was a metal door embedded in the wall. The vegetation covered everything else except for a small white box on the wall by the door.

The alarm system.

That wouldn’t be a problem. Matthew stepped up to the door and examined the white box for a moment before pressing two fingers to it. Davey was sure that when the scientists had experimented on them all and had changed them, giving them powers they thought they would be able to replicate and exploit, they hadn’t expected the mutants to get out of the labs and work against them. Matthew’s electricity, Davey’s water manipulation, Olga’s future seeing—they could have used it for their personal gain, but instead, they were using it to kill as many doctors and scientists as they could.

Davey loved it. It was revenge, but at the same time, he felt like the scientists should have expected it. Did they really think that the people they experimented on would stay in their cages and wait for whatever came next? Hadn’t they realized that the people they hurt would eventually want to hurt them? Whatever the case, Davey was happy that he could do all of this. He’d saved himself and countless other people, and even though he hadn’t yet saved the most important person, he was sure that eventually, he would.

He just had to find Evan first.

Matthew opened the door and gestured at everyone else to get in. Davey rushed forward, walking into the building right behind Olga. She looked badass in her black uniform, all playfulness gone from her expression. She was laser-focused now, ready to take down whoever stood in her way.

As was Davey.

It always took a while for them to reach the prisoners. They had to take care of the guards first, then of the scientists and anyone else who’d been working here. It always amazed Davey in the worst way that so many people were ready to hurt others for a paycheck.

He rounded a corner and noticed another metal door embedded in the wall at the end of the hallway. There was a guard standing in front of it, a gun in his hand. He raised it when he saw Davey, but Davey was faster. He reached a hand out and pulled the water from the guard’s eyes.

The guard screamed. Before, Davey would have done something much showier, like pulling all the water from the guy’s body and turning him into a dry husk. That took quite a bit of power, though, and he wanted to be ready for whatever was behind the door. Taking the fluid out of someone’s eyes was just as effective because it meant the guard was blind.
