Chapter 144: More battles ahead

***

Amber’s POV

“Here it is,” I announce, perhaps unnecessary, at the door of the warehouse, ”How do you want to do this? What’s the safest way in?”

My husband looks at the building and sighs. He tries to see inside the window next to the door, but it’s covered in grime. He tries the door experimentally, but it’s locked, as expected. He then sighs, brow furrowed in concentration.

“Stand back my love,” my mate says, as he braces himself, muscles tensed and ready for battle, “I’m going to have to break down the door. Everyone hang back until I know what we’re dealing with.”

“I’m going with you,” Hope says firmly, “This is at least partly my fault, and you need backup. Besides, we don’t know what we’re dealing with. This could be a trap. And I am an expert in magical defense, after all.”

“Not without me you don’t,” Colin says, equally as emphatically, “Two magical experts are better than one. Charlotte, you stay out her

  • Marriage First, Mate Second   Chapter 150 : A direct order

    Chapter 150: A direct order ***Amber’s POV “August, are you home,” my husband calls into the silent house, “I’ve been calling but you didn’t answer. Are you there?” As we peer into the darkness beyond, my mate and I look at each other in fear. But to our surprise, August emerges from the back door, covered in soil. And carrying a bouquet of roses, clearly freshly cut. “Hey guys, what’s going on,” he says, looking at us in confusion, “I’m sorry I didn’t hear you knock. I was gardening. I wasn’t expecting company. Is everything ok?” “No, it’s not,” my husband replies hurriedly, running to the back of the house to lock the door. Following his lead, I lock the front door as well. “August, you’re her next target,” I tell him gently, “We spoke to the woman who helped them escape. Sebastian told her that he’s coming to see you. Said you ‘owed him a favor’. That’s why we’re here. You’re not safe here.” “That may be true,” he says seriously, “But

  • Marriage First, Mate Second   Chapter 149 : The enemy of my enemy

    Chapter 149: The enemy of my enemy ***Amber’s POV “But how,” I ask, incredulous, “That's supposed to be the most secure facility in the world! How could that possibly happen?” “Indeed,” my husband replies, and I can hear the tension in his voice,”Word is that they had help from someone on the inside. Neither of them would have gotten out otherwise.” My mate was right to be concerned. It isn’t over yet. With those two running free, none of us are safe. “What should we do now,” I ask my mate, hating the sound of the fear in my own voice, “How do we protect ourselves?” “We go home,” my husband replies seriously, “We take every precaution to keep you and the children safe. And we prepare to fight, if we must. But if we need to, we will win. This I swear to you, my love.” ***Sebastian’s POV “I never thought in a million years that we would end up working together,” I tell Dora as we finish changing into new clothing we found in the abando

  • Marriage First, Mate Second   Chapter 148 : The last witness

    Chapter 148: The last witness*** Levi’s POV “Please, please stop,” Lenora pleads, “I don’t understand why you’re doing this!” I do understand, I think. They believe they’re eliminating the last witness to their crimes. Unfortunately for them, they are very wrong. “Are you ready,” I ask Elliot and Diego, and they nod in reply, “Let’s do this!” We burst into the room, guns drawn. We are apparently just in time, as Erick has a gun pointed at Lenora’s head. The other two, whose names appeared in Dora’s ledger, stare at us in surprise. Neither have weapons, and I can see the fear in their eyes. “Well, we meet again Levi,” says Erick evenly, “Don’t tell me you’re here for her. I can’t imagine why you would trouble yourself with Lenora. She’s no one you need to worry about.” “I am,” I affirm, keeping my weapon trained on his head, “She’s innocent, and you know that. She’s done nothing to you. Let her go.” The other two elders laugh at my sugg

  • Marriage First, Mate Second   Chapter 147 : Crazy ideas

    Chapter 147: Crazy ideas ***Amber’s POV “So, Dora’s going to the same place they sent Sebastian,” I say to my husband with a sigh of relief, “That place is impossible to escape. I can’t believe it’s finally over.” We are sitting outside the courthouse, and have just heard the verdict. Not a single person present voiced an objection to the sentencing. It seems that Dora has caused so much pain and suffering to so many that this was the only choice other than execution. And this particular judge is known for having an aversion to using the death penalty, so we were pretty sure that wasn’t going to be the outcome. “My love, we are not quite finished,” my mate replies grimly, “Her supporters are still out there. The Elders who have gone rogue. That man she hired to kill you and the twins. I will not rest until they are taken down.” “Do we have any idea where they are,” I ask him, worriedly, “I mean, wouldn’t they have gone underground?”“We have a bet

  • Marriage First, Mate Second   Chapter 146 : Darling Dora

    Chapter 146: Darling Dora ***Levi’s POV “If that is what you think is best, grandmother, then of course I will,” I tell Dora, fighting to keep my voice from betraying my disgust at her suggestion, “Provided that you hold up your end of the bargain, of course. If you harm my family in any way at all, then all bets are off. And you know how I can be when people don’t keep their word.” I need for her to believe my threat And as no one was more feared than I when I served under my grandmother, It seems advantageous to remind her of my youth. When I was growing up my grandmother made me the punisher of our enemies, among other distasteful things. I hated the task. Hated what she made me become. I still do, and it pains me to think of it, even now. But I’ll do just about anything to convince her of my sincerity, as she holds the life of my wife and children in her hands. “It’s a deal then,” Dora replies with an evil smile, “I can’t wait to introduce you to Lady Laf

  • Marriage First, Mate Second   Chapter 145 : No choice at all

    Chapter 145: No choice at all ***Levi’s POV “I was afraid that you would say that,” I tell my grandfather with a sigh, “I know that she has some strange fixation on Amber and my children. I just don’t understand why. I don’t recall her ever liking children when I was growing up! It makes no sense to me.” August is clearly upset by my revelation about Dora not liking children. Perhaps it is because he knows better than anyone what Dora is capable of. “About that,” August says sadly, “I am so sorry for the things she did when you were growing up. The way she treated you. The things she tried to make you do. It wasn’t right. I didn’t know, I truly didn’t. That doesn’t make it right. I should have known, I should have been paying attention, and I’m sorry for that as well. I just never would have imagined that she was, and is, capable of such cruelty. I didn’t see her for who she was.” “You don’t need to apologize for that,” I tell him, “Truly. I was angry f
