Alpha Manuel POV

"Three hours. Fourteen minutes. Twenty-two seconds. Alpha Manuel."

I kept walking. Didn't respond.

"Twenty-three seconds. Twenty-four seconds. Twenty-five seconds. Alpha Manuel."

"I can count too, Mitch."

    REMI POV"Did you dress me up so I can look good when I die?"Kade stopped walking. Turned to look at me."What?""This dress. The hair. The whole thing." I gestured at myself. "Did you make me look nice so at least I'll be a pretty corpse?"He stared at me for a second. Then laughed. Actually laughed."Relax. The creatures don't want you dead. From what we know they specifically want you alive.""Oh good. So I'll just be kidnapped and tortured instead of killed. Much better.""I wouldn't put you in this position if your life was truly at risk.""My life is ALWAYS at risk. I'm mated to Nero.""Fair point." He started walking again. "But I mean it. If I thought you'd actually die I wouldn't do this.""So what's the plan then?""Damon's waiting for us at the stables. He doesn't know why yet. And he doesn't know you're with me.""So you need a fake name.Yes. Let's call you Paris.""Paris? Like the city?""Like the prince. From the legends. Paris of Troy.""The one who stole another man's

We've crossed five streams. Encountered eight different tree species. The dominant one is oak. Approximately sixty percent oak. Thirty percent pine. Ten percent birch. Alpha Manuel.""Noted.""You didn't ask about the trees. Alpha Manuel.""No. I didn't.""Then why did I provide that information? Alpha Manuel.""Because you can't help yourself."He thought about that. Nodded once. "Accurate assessment. Alpha Manuel."We

    NERO POV"How much further to the river?" I asked.The venom was making everything worse. Every jolt sent pain through my shoulder. Down my arm. The black veins were spreading. I could see them creeping up my neck now. Felt them under my skin. Wrong. All wrong."Maybe thirty minutes. Why? Eager to face your greatest fear?" Abel responded"I don't have fears.""You're terrified of water.""I'm not terrified. I just. Prefer not to be near it.""Shut up, Abel."He was still grinning. Annoying bastard.We rode in silence for a few minutes. Then I heard it. The sound of running water.My chest tightened."That's the river," Abel said. Helpfully."I know what a river sounds like.""Your jaw just twitched.""No it didn't.""It did. Right there. Twitched again."I forced my jaw to relax. Didn't work.We came around a bend. The river spread out before us. Wide. Fast moving. The kind of water that could sweep you away if you weren't careful."It's not that bad," Abel said.It was that bad."We

    REMI POVThat was rude, Parrot said. Even for him that was RUDE.After Nero dumped me on the bed and walked out, I just lay there for a minute.Staring at the ceiling."Well," I said to the empty room. "Someone woke up on the murder side of the bed."Payback for stabbing him.Right.Like I'd stabbed him for FUN.Like I hadn't been DYING when I did it."Asshole," I muttered to the empty room. "Royal, venom-infected, emotionally constipated asshole."But you're still worried about him, Parrot said."Well. I wish I wasn’t."You are. You're worried the venom's getting worse. Making him meaner. More violent. More... him but worse.She was right.Something was really wrong with Nero. More wrong than usual. That wasn't just angry Nero or cursed Nero or even asshole Nero.That was venom Nero. Dying Nero.And I needed to help him. Because I needed him alive.Not just for me. Though yes. Obviously. If he died I was screwed.

    Nero POV ContinuedKade stepped closer and Met my eyes."I have made progress. We will give you results soon. But don't you dare accuse me of choosing him over you.""Why not? Everyone else has an agenda. Why should you be different?""Because I'm your BROTHER." He stepped closer. "I've been by your side for years. Through every curse. Every bride. Every fucking betrayal from everyone else. And you're going to question ME?""The man you love has the same marks as those creatures. You don't think that's suspicious?""I think it's devastating." Kade's voice cracked. Just slightly. Just enough. "I think the man I love might be a traitor. And I think I might have to kill him for it. So don't fucking question my loyalty when I'm LIVING this nightmare."The silence that followed was heavy.Abel shifted uncomfortably. Looked away.I could see it now. The tension in Kade's shoulders.
