I didn’t go straight back to Sutton, despite desperately wanting to. I figured she would need some space after our painful conversation. I also needed some time to refocus. I went to the spare room across the hall and changed my clothes. I threw on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt before pouring myself a drink.

I wanted to be with Sutton. I missed her scent. I missed just being near her, even if I couldn’t touch her.

The sun was starting to set and I contemplated drinking until I fell asleep, allowing her the time to herself. But it was pointless to even consider. The more I drank, the harder it would be to stay away. And approaching her in a drunken state would not go well. She’d reject me the second she found out we were mates.

Discarding the glass, I left the room, knocking gently on the door across the hall. I opened it to see Sutton covering herself with her robe. She was sitting next to the medical tray. She had been trying to change her bandages.

I crossed the room and sat next t

    “Sera, we’ll…”“No,” she insisted, shaking her head. “After all this, I’m not leaving without it.”I shared nervous glances with Max and Soloman. I wanted to say it didn’t matter. That we worry about that when she was safe and had been seen by a doctor. But I couldn’t. I needed that key. And I needed it before someone realized it was missing. If either Raphe or Nomi realized it was gone, I had to have the evidence deciphered before they suspected I was involved.“Where is it?” I asked Sera. “I’ll get it.”“I…” She put a hand to her head, obviously in pain. “I hide it. They pulled me out of the way of a group of people. Up next to the wall. I… I dropped it in a pot. Or maybe a vase.”“Where?” I pressed. “Were you still in the royal wing? The main building?”“We had left the royal wing,” she said. “But… I don’t remember the way we took.”I suppressed a curse. Not wanting her to feel even worse than she already did. But right now, she was the only hope we had of finding that key. I didn’

    I owed Soloman for the strings he managed to pull so quickly. Without him, we never would have been able to land in the private airport in the capital. Let alone had a car waiting for me in the parking lot. I told Uncle Rodney to wait with the plane while went to the palace to handle things.Not that I knew how I was going to handle this mess. I had been desperately trying to work out a plan on the flight here but my head just wouldn’t focus. No doubt thanks to the lack of sleep and the fact that I didn’t know the last time I’d consumed anything other than whiskey. Rhonen still hadn’t returned either. Still pissed about my argument with Sutton.Max linked me where to park when I got close to the palace, making sure we wouldn’t draw attention. He and Soloman met me at a staff entrance at the back end of the building.“It’s all quiet now,” Max insisted in hushed tones as he let me in. “But we should stay clear of the guest wing just to be cautious.”“Sutton is safe?” I demanded. “She’s

    Laughter from the dance floated through the air to me and Raphe. We had been sitting quietly. I didn’t know how long for. Just remembering. Focusing on our own lives and relationships with my mother. I had taken his hand at some point. Offering support while needing something for myself as well. I needed contact with someone who loved her. And there was no doubt in my mind that Raphe loved her.But does that mean he was telling the truth? If he was, did that make him innocent of the other things? I turned to Nova, asking if she sensed any lie in his confessions. She agreed that his emotions were sincere but that she couldn’t sense if his words were just yet.“Did you try to find out who was behind the accident?” I asked.Raphe sighed heavily, nodding. “Of course,” he said. “I’d like to say that I never stopped looking, but… my attempts over the past years have been, at best, half-hearted. It got to be too hard on my father and Nomi kept saying it wasn’t healthy. I got too obsessive. B

    “You did what?”I was knee deep in debris when I got the call. I almost didn’t answer. Max wasn’t who I wanted to talk to at that moment. I’d missed Sutton’s calls and messages after not realizing my phone had died on the drive out here. By the time I got it turned back on, Sutton wasn’t answering hers. But I remembered Max had also messaged that he was with her at the capital. So, seeing his call had me panicking. What I heard was far from what I expected.“We moved forward with the plan,” Max repeated. “But something went wrong. They have Sera. She locked up in the palace.”“Where is Sutton?” I demanded. “You said you went to protect her.”“Sutton is fine,” Max replied. “She and Helene are at the ball with Soloman. She’s safe.”“Wait… ball? What ball?”“Eh… that’s another story,” Max said. “We don’t have time for that. We need to figure out how the hell we’re going to get Sera out of trouble.”“She would be in trouble if you had done what I told you,” I barked, climbing my way out o

    Raphe accompanied me out of the ballroom to the garden terrace just outside. We strolled onto a path that led us through the landscaped courtyard.“I was disappointed to see that Alpha Lucas didn’t join you this weekend,” Raphe said as we walked. “He is an impressive man. I enjoy our conversations.”“He had something important come up at the last minute,” I explained. “He sends his best.”“It is the nature of leadership,” Raphe noted. “I am glad he was able to spare you at least. I really am touched to have you here. Getting older reminds one of the important things in life. We missed a lot of time. It’s a shame I didn’t get to see you and your sisters grow up. Things may have been different.”His words sounded mournful and sad. The emotion behind them was real. It took me by surprise but it was also so close to what I came to find out.“Speaking of your birthday,” I said, reaching into the pocket of my dress. “I brought you something. It’s not much but I thought you would like it.”R

    I almost backed out of the plan a dozen times but Sera pointed out that the ball made this an even better opportunity. Most of the palace security would be focused around the main wing of the palace. Not to mention the busy chaos of the staff throughout the place. She would have a better window to sneak into the Nomi’s and Raphe’s apartments to search for the key.Truth be told, this was the real reason I had come along. Lucas hadn’t actually told me to come with Sutton, but Jaden and I agreed he would have if he hadn’t been so upset. Not to mention a little out of his mind from lack of sleep. Jaden originally volunteered the minute he realized Sutton was still going without Lucas, but I convinced him it was better for him to stay at the packhouse and hold things down.While Lucas would be grateful that I came along to keep Sutton and Helene safe, he wouldn’t approve of Sera and me running this mission without him. But after hearing about the huge fight he and Sutton had, neither of u
