Orion POV
I chased after Mara, trying to get to her before she got to him. But just when I thought I would get a hold of her she would disappear between my fingers. “Mara No” I scream at her as I see her body start to ripple when she makes her way to hole in the ground. I could Thaddeus across the otherside. But Mara didn’t understand he is not her father while he is like that. Evie grabbed a hold of me as we fought from being tossed into the fiery hole of hell. I just make out Mara appearing next to her father.
Fear coursing through me when he doesn’t recognise her, instead I watch as he conjures more and I feel Evie’s grip loosen as she is pulled toward the hole. Before being ripped away from. Her scream sends my blood cold as I see her clawing at the ground trying to stop the invisible force dragging her. I let go of the t
Evelyn POVOne week LaterWe had stayed in our little bubble, none of us leaving home for anything, instead Imogen would pop over and drop things off. None of us wanted to leave the safety of home. The rumours of the Dark king had been circulating. Hysteria spread like wildfire of his return because of the damage he caused. None would listen to the fact, it was a war he never started. Thaddeus has struggled since being home, the darkness was addictive and he fought the push and pull relationship he had with it.One minute he was fine the next on the verge of exploding yet we managed to bring him back from the darkest depths of the depression it caused him.

Amara POVOne week Later.“This traffic is bullshit” I shrieked on my way to work. Dad wanted to retire and asked me to help Ryland run things at work and was showing me the ropes.“Calm down love,” Emmet tells me. I have been on edge for the last week, no matter where we looked she was gone, we had no name nothing to go by and my visions were not helping because she is my mate and was immune to me. I let out a breath trying to calm myself and finally traffic started moving again. I honk my horn when it suddenly breaks again making us come to a stop. It took us thirty minutes in traffic to get to the office. Pulling into the underground carpark I wait for the boomgate to lift when I am thrown forward in my seat before hearing the sound of metal on metal. I had been getting braxton hicks all day or so I thought as I watched Orion finish the mural on the wall in the nursery room. Orion had drawn a heap of Zoo animals on the wall next to the crib and was just painting the giraffe, Mara had already asked for him to draw her and olaf on her wall and he was going to start it when he was done in here.My hips were killing from the extra weight as I tried to get comfortable on the exercise ball I was sitting on, Orion brought it home reckons it would help with lower back pain, but all I was feeling was pain and pressure, I swear the ball was making it worse as I rocked back and forth on it trying to distract myself from the braxton hicks.“Want me to run you a bath?” He asks as he puts the paint brush down. I nod and he holds his hands out to me. “Come on big momma” He says andSadistic Mates Epilogue
