“I didn’t know that you had a sister,” Breanna said softly. She walked over and put a comforting hand on Agatha’s arm. “She was younger,” Agatha said softly. “And we had different fathers. I didn’t see her a lot, but we kept in touch once she was older. I had wondered why it had been so long since I heard from her, but I just assumed that she was happy and living her life. Why didn’t she contact me,” Agatha wondered out loud. “If I may,” Daniel said from the screen. He had overheard Agatha’s musings. “I think that she knew all along what was going to happen. She was never surprised by anything that the hunters asked her to do. Even at the end, it seemed like she had known everything that they were going to do.” Agatha listened to everything that Daniel had to say and nodded her head at a few points. “That does sound like my sister. She couldn’t see into the future like I can, but she did have very strong feelings and institutions. Thank you. She probably did know what was going
“Fucking bitch,” Daniel snarled and began fighting against his restraints. Marcus ran forward as Agatha stepped back and placed a shield between her and Daniel. As soon as Marcus reached Daniel, Emily saw that he had a syringe in his hand. He pulled the top off with his teeth and pulled Danile’s head to the side. He quickly jabbed the needle into the side of his neck and pushed the liquid into his vein. Within seconds Daniel’s movements calmed to all you could see was the rapid rise and fall of his chest and his eyes darting around. “You know that little injection won’t stop me,” Daniel said slightly slurred. “I am going to drain everything from you fucking bitches as soon as I get free.”“I don’t think so,” Agatha said, dropping her shield and tracing a pattern as she approached his left hand side and continued to trace the pattern as she walked counter clockwise around him. After she was done she turned and looked at the camera and said, “Breanna, bring me black chalk, and then fou
“Honestly, we do not need it,” Agatha said, “and since you were hurt we thought that it could help you heal some. If it doesn’t help you heal, it will at least allow you some additional protection.” Before Emily could ask her next question Gabriel asked, “Would this hurt or change her? I do not want her to become something dark or chance anything that would hurt her.” “Absorbing the energy will not hurt her,” Angela said. “It will actually help her and she should heal on up even with the unknowns with her injury. They were able to pull or block much of her own energy with the wound as well as severing her bond with Rica and you. I do not know if this will restore the bonds, but it will at least help her body heal and get her on the right track.” “She will not turn into a leech, to answer your other question,” Agatha said. “She already has the ability to move energies, but she does not have to pull them like he did,” she said pointing to Daniel who was still slumped down in his c
Wakeup. Wakeup. Wakeup. “Go away,” Emily groaned as she burrowed further into her pillow. All this time without me and you won’t even wake up to tell me hello, the voice huffed. “What do you mean all of this time without you,” Emily grumbled. “I just want to finish my nap.” I might be gone by the time you decide to finally wake up, the voice whined. I thought you would have missed me, the voice said softly. “Who are you,” Emily mumbled, still trying to wake up. “The only one I am missing is Rica.” Hello! Who do you think I am? “Rica? Is that really you?”Yes! Finally! Yes, it’s me. Who else did you think it was? Do you have another lycan half that I should be worried about, she teased. “No,” Emily said, sitting up quickly. “I can hear you, but I don’t feel you like I did before. I don’t feel the connection like I can talk to you in my mind like normal.”Our bond is still mostly severed. That is why I was trying to talk to you while I can. I’m not sure how long this will l
“Oh my gosh you scared me,” Emily squeaked, clutching her chest while her heart was beating frantically. “I’m sorry little mate,” Gabriel said as he prowled closer. “So what were you saying about needing to find your mate and jumping him,” he purred as he reached Emily and leaned over caging her within his arms on either side of her on the bed. “Oh…ummm…well,” Emily said embarrassed. “Rica is kind of back for a little while, but she said that completing our bond might help her to be able to stay and to bring our bond back fully.”“Conri could sense her. That is why I was on my way back when I overheard you. Conri and I are more than ready to complete the bond but we will not rush or force you. If you are not ready then we will find another way.” “I’m ready,” Emily said bashfully looking up into Gabriel’s glowing green eyes. “I was actually on my way back here when the attack happened. I have never felt like you have rushed or forced me.” Gabriel took a deep breath. It was taking
Emily and Gabriel finally left their rooms showered and dressed about an hour later. Emily had to smile to herself. Somehow their sharing a shower to save water had ended up wasting a lot more water. Go figure, she thought to herself still trying to contain her smile. “You know since our bond is back and fully in place that I can hear what you are thinking unless you block me,” Gabriel said with a smirk as he wrapped an arm around her waist and brought her closer to him. “I forgot about that actually,” Emily said. “I wasn’t thinking anything bad. It was just more of an…observation,” she laughed. “Ah. I see. An observation,” Gabriel said, grinning down at his mate. “Maybe based on your observation we should think of new ways to save water or maybe we just need more practice.” “Maybe,” Emily said with a light blush. “We can see later.” Quickly changing the topic, Emily asked, “Is everyone meeting back in the conferencroom to hear what Agatha and Angela learned?” “No,” Gabriel s
“We are almost ready,” Gabriel said, nudging Emily toward the tables full of food. “Please, get something to eat. This does not have to be a formal setting. I know that you both have to be exhausted with everything that you have done over the last few days.” With that he turned and handed Emily, Angela, and Agatha a plate. “Thank you,” Emily said with a smile as she took the plate and indicated for Agatha and Angela to go first. You know he sure is a lot nicer than I would have ever thought a king much less and Alpha King would be, Emily said to Rica. He doesn’t seem to use his authority or anything special. He seems really laid back almost. I think that is because of us. Conri said that Gabriel and he never really cared about titles, money, or power. They do what they have to do, but that was it. I think the niceness is since they found us. We have tamed the savage beasts, Rica snickered. Emily rolled her eyes at the last piece, but began to fill her plate. Make sure to add plent
“That is what we were actually doing most of the night,” Agatha admitted. “It didn’t take us long to go through the hunter’s mind. Without his stolen powers, and without his ability to take powers he was very easy to read. We were able to see the witches that he took power from and we recognized most of them and most of them are eager to get their powers back and are willing to help or happy to leave and not take sides.”“That’s a good thing, right,” Gabriel asked. “If you know who the hunter stole power from you can contact them and let them come here so that Emily can return it. I do not want her leaving here to go to the hunters.” “In most cases it is,” Angela agreed slowly. “But there is one potential problem that we have encountered.”“What type of problem,” Gabriel asked with his eyes narrowing slightly. Why couldn’t just one thing work out easy for his mate?“One of the witches that the hunter stole power from is Jenna,” Agatha said with a grim set to her mouth. “Shit,” Gabri
