The man was barely handling this.

Why drop that bomb on him?

There was no doubt he’d freak the fuck out.

“So, we’re working this case, and we’re also psychic. Someone is preying on people who are generally depressed, impressionable, and, like we said, witch adjacent. Lonnie hung out with them, and Wynter worked with them.”

He stood there.

“I can’t believe this.”

Oh, well, it was real.

“Are you depressed or on meds?” Julian asked.

He blinked.

“That’s personal.”

Well, yeah, he was aware, but it was something they needed to keep in mind. After all, this man had eight pentacles delivered to his door, and seven of them were out there still.

“Just answer,” Honor stated. “There’s a point.”

He shrugged.

“I was when I got divorced years ago. It caught me off guard, and I was blindsided. Now, though, no. I’ve found other things that interest me.”

Julian was betting Lianna was one of them.

“Well, here’s my suggestion. If you have a gun in the house, lose it—as in make it as inconvenient as you can to get to it. Wynter Hunterhurst shot herself while having one of those pentacles in her pocket, and meds onboard.”

He left it at that.

For Ridge’s sake.

“Jesus.”

Honor reminded him.

“We shared out of common courtesy for you, Counselor. Only so many people know the facts of this case. If anything gets out, you’re the leak. You’re literally the ONLY non-Littlemoon family or employee who knows.”

Oh, well, that made him think one thing.

“Who would believe me?” he asked. “Are they still here?” he whispered.

Tori laughed.

“They aren’t deaf,” she stated.

No, but they were the dead, and at that moment, James was getting his fun on with his wife.

“Suddenly, I miss Trey,” Julian stated, seeing the countertop humping going on.

Tori started laughing.

How could she not?

Honor just shook her head.
