Marked (Mortal, Book Four) EPILOGUE
Tyr"Back so soon?" John Grace doesn't even bother to look at me as I stride into the room in my high-rise apartment that houses his cell.I smirk. He's always so cocky, so sure of himself, even though he's been my captive for weeks now."I have some happy news I would like to share with you," I say.He stiffens, and I can nearly read his thoughts. He's worried that this is about his daughter."I did run into Winter," I say, "if that's what you're wondering. She's alive, though. For now."He glares daggers at me and I laugh. For the first time in years, I feel like I'm walking on air."Look what I found." I pull the Golden Coin from my pocket and hold it up for him to see. His eyes widen in shock."Where did you get that?" he breathes."Off your daughter," I say, drawing the words out, enjoying how much the news is tormenting him. "And there's more, too. I figured out how to activate the coin."His eyes narrow. "No one alive knows how to activate it.""But you were hopin

Winter"There's nothing happening." I set my end of the sled in the snow and inspect the old farmhouse.In the sled, Damon lets out a low moan. He's been in his wolf form the entire trip to Hawthorn, which included two hitched rides in the back of people's trucks.Thank God those drivers seemed to buy our story that he was our German Shepard, injured after a run-in with a car.Alec crouches and studies the farmhouse. "I'm not picking up on anyone inside, but that could be because of a protective spell. One cast to make it seem like there's no one there."I suck in a breath. This is the safe house Damon received a text about. Let's just hope it's still technically safe and not overrun with Silver Hunters."I'll check it out." I take a step forward. Predictably, Alec stops me with a hand to my shoulder."It's too dangerous." He frowns.I try not to smile. The trip back to Hawthorn was hard and uncomfortable, especially seeing Damon in pain. And losing the Golden Coin makes me

WinterWe're standing in complete darkness, the only sound the beating of our hearts."Where are we?" Alec asks, his voice barely above a whisper."I don't know," I reply, trying to make sense of our surroundings. "But I think we did it. I think we defeated the wisps."As I speak, the darkness begins to lift. We're standing on the edge of the river, right in front of the dock.The ferryman and his boat are there, a lamp bobbing at its bow."Welcome back," the ferryman says, his voice gruff. "I've been expecting you. You did well. You discovered and used the greatest force. Earth is fortunate to have you two on it."“Love,” I breathe with realization. “The greatest force is love.”"How did we get here?" Alec asks, still dazed from the battle. “Love… sent us here?”"The Golden Coin sent you here," the ferryman replies, gesturing to the coin in Alec's hand. "It has the power to transport you wherever you need to go. And it seems like you needed to come back here."I look at

TyrI stop on the quiet, dark street and listen. The Silver Hunters were supposed to meet me here thirty minutes ago.I've given up working with higher ups in the Silver Hunter community. Since Gray Finnegan failed at her mission to retrieve the Golden Coin from the pocket dimension, I've decided that I have no problem just picking and choosing Silver Hunters to work as mercenaries for me.Like the two I hired this morning to track down Winter and the Golden Coin. They may pretend to be loyal to their organization, but it was easy to win them over using a wad of cash."Where are you idiots?" I whisper into the night.Footsteps sound on the sidewalk, and I whirl around to see the two Silver Hunters and their dogs. From the looks on their faces, I can already tell they weren't successful."You didn't get it, did you?" I snap.They share a quick look."We found a werewolf," one of them says. "It got away, though.""A werewolf?" I frown. Could this werewolf have any connection
