The rest of the walk to the field was done in silence. Leo didn’t try to ask any more questions about Odis and I was relieved. When we got to the open field, Olivia’s replacement was running laps. I watched her for a few minutes until I felt Leo’s gaze. I shook off the sadness that tried to creep up whenever I thought of her I didn’t need that now. I did however have a few questions for my partner.
“Do you want to explain what that was all about?” I asked as I turned around and faced him. He was shocked for a second but regained his composure.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Leo said. He was lying through his teeth and I was so close to losing my shit.
“Oh really? You don’t know about the tension between you and our Beta back there?” I asked. He shrugged innocently but he was anything but.
“You didn’t see a problem with taunting your Beta?” I asked.
