“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

“We know,” Angela said, “and that is where we are hitting a slight snag. The council could possibly help us in this matter, but we do not want them here or knowing about your abilities. Jenna wants to see Gabriel to try to plead her case, but we are worried that she may have made a deal of her own or have her own agenda.” “What do you mean,” Gabriel asked with a growl. “Does she know about Emily?” “I do not think that she knows about Emily per se,” Agatha said tiredly. “Outside of the valley and the hunters, I do not know that many know about her at all. With everything going on a formal announcement of you finding your mate was never sent out, we have never advertised if someone was a lycan because of hunters, and she has not used any magic so she has not been linked to anything in the Witch’s Council. Jenna does know that someone one strong was able to absorb the powers form the hunter and that they are willing to return the powers to the original owners. That alone is enough to

Lord Rotterford looked at the two sorry excuses for hunters that were currently trembling in front of him. “I will only ask this one more time,” he said through clenched teeth and barely continuing his temper. “How did you let Daniel go through one of the openings?” “S-Sir, I do not know how he got to one of the openings.” One of the sniveling weaklings in front of him stammered. “W-We were opening them as fast as we could, closing them, and then changing the locations to avoid detection when all of a sudden I turned and he was not there. The hunter that stabbed your fiancee was standing there looking at us confused and demanding to know what was going on,” he finished quickly and looked back down at the floor. “This is bullshit,” Lord Rotterford yelled as he slammed his fist down on the desk he was currently sitting behind. “I know someone saw or knows something! Speak!” Lord Rotterford seethed as he sat there and no one else dared to say anything. After several more tense moments

About twenty minutes later Emily had finally finished breakfast. Rica had talked her into going back for another plate that was mostly bacon. Dang lycan was going to make her have a heart attack from all of the delicious grease. Nonsense. Our metabolism and everything is way too strong for that from bacon, Rica scoffed. If you say so, Emily replied. Since she was done with breakfast, Emily had decided to head to the training grounds. “Are you heading to the training grounds now,” Emily asked Gabriel as he finished up the last bit from his plate. “Yes. We can head there as soon as you change,” he said standing and drinking the last bit of his water in a single gulp. “Changed,” Emily asked, confused. “I thought I was going to be able to let Rica out to stretch and train.” “Rica will be able to come out, but I would also like for you to learn a little just in case you are ever surprised or attacked in this form too,” Gabriel said as he held out his hand for Emily to take. Once she

About an hour later Emily and Gabriel finally made their way to the training grounds. Emily figured that Gabriel must have told everyone to not say anything about how late they were coming to the training grounds. ‘Hey Gabe,” Axel said, jogging up to them. Emily barely contained a groan. She already could hear Axel’s blunt question or crude remark coming. “Glad you finished up your phone call in time to make training. I won’t lie. I thought that Emily might have been trying to find a way to avoid training since she knows that she will lose to me,” he said with a quick wink in Emily’s direction. “No,” Gabriel said with a chuckle. “Emily was not hiding out. It is my fault that we are late. I asked her to wait on me,” he said with a quick glance at Emily that told her to play along. “The last time I let her out of my sight we were attacked and I almost lost her. You can’t blame me for not wanting her too far from me now,” he said with a smile and shrug to Axel. “I understand,” A

“Hello? Can you hear me? Dang it! I did what you asked. You better answer me,” Jenna growled. If anyone was just looking in you would think that she was going crazy talking to the ceiling in her room. Jenna quickly glanced outside the door to make sure none of the hunters were coming for her yet. Once she saw that the coast was still clear she tried again. “I know you are there. Answer me,” she hissed. “Yes, I am here,” a voice finally answered. “What took you so long,” Jenna growled. “They could be here any minute.” “I know. That is what took me a few extra minutes,” the voice answered. “You are getting sloppy. I had to put up some basic sound wards to protect our plan,” the voice chastised. “It’s a wonder I can do anything with so much of my power being gone,” Jenna grumbled. “I did what you asked. I have requested a meeting with Rotterford to offer information in exchange for my life.” Good,” the voice answered. “Do you remember what we discussed?” “Yes. I am suppo

Emily stretched once her transformation into Rica was complete. It was amazing how powerful she felt in this form. Rica really was incredible. I know, Rica said enjoying stretching as well. Emily rolled her eyes at Rica’s response. Are you ready?I was born ready, Rica said grinning. Let’s go then, Emily said as they exited the tent that Gabriel had put up so she could change privately. It had taken a little negotiation, but Emily had been able to talk Gabriel into waiting outside while she changed. She pulled open the flap and stepped out by her mate. Gabriel turned and looked at his beautiful mate with pride. Emily was amazing in either form, but Rica was really spectacular. Are you ready, Gabriel asked with a grin. I think the question is, is Axel ready, Emily replied back with a grin. Let’s go, Gabriel said, leading Emily and Rica to the challenge circle. Emily could hear a lot of people talking as they approached the circle. There was a buzz of excitement as she approached
