Back upstairs in my room, I took a shower, and I felt useless, helpless, broken, and alone. In the blink of an eye, I had lost both Gunnar and Kari. I wasn’t sure which one hurt more, I loved them both, and now they were both gone.

Sleep didn’t come easy that night, and I kept replaying that night’s events in my head. I should have known that Gunnar would try something. I shouldn’t have trusted his easy acceptance. If only he hadn’t moved, if only he had stayed at our house ... if only. I hadn’t really cried yet, and I sensed someone in my room.

“I’m sorry, Kai,” Chrissie said to me.

“Go away,” I said. I didn’t have the energy for more of her tricks, and I didn’t want her condolences, either. She’d made me a murderer, and the only part I didn’t regret was that it had been me, and not Saga.

“Don’t be so mean,” she said to me. I turned my back on her and closed my eyes. I just wanted her to leave me alone.

“We had a deal. I kept to my part of the deal, so go away,” I said, but she was a

    Malachi stood in Kiran’s study and sighed. It was a terrible time for all of them as they watched James retreat and cling to Kari as if she was the only thing that could keep him from falling apart.“You need to speak to James,” Malachi said to Kiran.“There’s nothing I can say that will change anything,” Kiran said, and dropped his pen on the desk.“He’s falling,” Malachi said, solemnly.“I know, Dad. It’s breaking my heart, but we both know what it feels like to lose a son. There’s nothing I can say,” Kiran said. Malachi had lost Kai at birth, and Kiran had lost Christian. They both knew exactly how James was feeling.“I know, but not everything is Kai’s fault. He’s still a kid,” Malachi said.“I know. How do you think all this makes me feel?” Kiran asked, as he stood up.“Kai’s just like you, you know,” Malachi said. “He goes off and does what he believes is right.”“It’s infuriating, to say the least,” Kiran admitted, and Malachi smiled.“James needs to let go of his hate,” Malach

    Kari’s resurrection ceremony was done the very next night. James had insisted on it. He didn’t want her to be vulnerable without her healing again. Kari hadn’t spoken to me since that night we brought Gunnar home, as if she too blamed me, like I blamed myself. I called and texted, but all I got in return was silence. She read my texts, but that was the only thing I got, a read notification.Her resurrection had been done in private. Only James was with her in the clearing. He was shutting everyone out, and we only knew she’d shifted successfully, when we heard her sorrowful howls from deep within the forest.Four days later, we stood in the clearing with Gunnar’s body lying in the middle. We’d already held his funeral, and the church had been packed. The lie we told was that he’d died from anaphylactic shock from an allergy we hadn’t known about. It was hard to swallow, but it was still better than the truth.Kari stood next to James looking down. She looked different since her resurr

    In the study, Levi highlighted the locations of the properties Jeffrey White owned. He tapped on the map showing the property in Salamatof. “He owns a cottage here on the lake. It’s remote, and there’s nothing for miles. That’s where I believe he’s keeping her.”“Okay, let’s go,” I said, and stood up.“Not so fast, Kai. You see that footpath? We’ll enter that stretch of woods from this side, then move towards the cottage, so we can line up with the building from different angles. We don’t know if he’s armed or not. Chances are, he is; he took her for a reason, and I believe he wants us to find him. I suggest I go in from the front, and you two can follow behind me, in your other invisible realm thing,” Levi said, and I nodded my head.“Now can we go?” I asked him half an hour later, when Levi finished talking about entry points and exit routes.“Kai, your only concern when we breach, is Kari, and getting her out. We’ll handle Jeffrey. Do you understand? I don’t care how mad you are o

    Levi was the calmest one of us all, he always had been. I was pacing up and down, feeling like I was going out of my mind with worry. I needed to do something. I needed to find her. James was beyond hysterical, and Adara had eventually sedated him.Gunnar stood quietly to one side, but I knew he wasn’t okay. Kiran and Levi kept whispering to each other, then Kiran looked at me and walked down the hall to his study. I followed him inside, and a few seconds later, Levi joined us.“What’s going on?” I asked Kiran, and he looked at Levi. I couldn’t decipher the look on his face but something told me I was about to find out.“His name’s Jeffrey White,” Levi said, and my eyes snapped up to him. Jeffrey White. I knew that name. Son of a bitch. No wonder he looked so familiar.“He was in our school. He’s four years older than us,” I said.“He owns some property in Sterling, Salamatof, and Nikiski,” Levi said.“Three different towns?” I said, in dismay.“Bluebird’s getting addresses and aerial

    Kari stood in the boutique and looked at herself in the mirror. She turned from side to side and sighed. She liked the dress, but it just didn’t feel like the right one. She wished her mother was there. Shoran always had a great sense of style.“I don’t think blue’s really my color,” she said to the assistant, who smiled at her.“The emerald green dress will really compliment your coloring,” she said to Kari.“I’ll try it on next,” Kari said, with a smile. The assistant returned with the dress, and Kari smiled again. “It’s beautiful.”“I think it will look perfect on you,” the woman said.Kari put the dress on and stepped out of the dressing room. It fit her perfectly, and she knew this was the dress. She stood in front of the mirror again and studied herself. Would Kai like it? A light blush appeared on her cheeks, and she smiled again.Kari walked up to the pay station and placed the dress carefully on the counter. “I left my handbag in the car. Can you wrap this up for me? I’ll be
