Lancelot’s P.O.V:
The call came just as I was about to head out to work. A mental ‘knock’ asking for permission to enter my mind. Since we were dimensions apart, it was the only way of communication. So I locked the door, sat down on my bed, and closed my eyes, concentrating on the fine fabric that was the link to the other mind. It didn’t take long to reach the other end.
“Lance?”
I opened my eyes to the darkness of the void. The darkness was everywhere, spread in every direction, but that didn’t bother me. The darkness wasn’t claustrophobic as was known to be predominant in Shadowland, the incomplete direction that had never had a chance to form because the makers had died halfway through making it. The most important fact was that the inhabitants in this space were illuminated from within so we could see each other.
“Miaka.&rdquo

Chapter 20: Reasons for SeparationLancelot’s P.O.V:I watched Keith help Anna lift a heavy box off the floor and place it in the middle of the conference table and curled my hands into fists.Did he think I didn’t notice how his hands stayed on Anna’s long enough to be more than just a friendly gesture, or did he think I didn’t notice the eye contact he had with Melinda just before doing the act? Melinda has a way of brainwashing people that they won’t even know they’re being used until the very last moment, and Keith Simons was well and truly under her spell.Maybe this was the right thing. Keith was human and Anna had already been with him for more than three years. They were a perfect match. But for some reason, whenever I thought of that outcome, I wanted to rip Keith Simons into tiny little threads.“How do you like the progression?” Melinda’s voice snappe

Chapter 21: Things Buried in the pastAnaya’s P.O.V:The confession threw me majorly off balance but before I could ask him more about it, the doorbell to our shared suite rang twice and then twice more after a short interval. Whoever was on the other side, sounded royally pissed off.Lancelot strode through the doors to his room and with a glance behind his shoulder, told me to stay right where I was as he made his way to the door. However, ignoring his orders, I followed behind and stood behind him as Lance unlocked the door to a smirking Trevina and Antony who had the look of a mix of anger and betrayal on his face.“Ace?” Lance asked, sounding just as surprised to see him as Ace did.Ace didn’t talk, he simply looked at Lance with that betrayed look in his eyes, meanwhile Trevina looked at the brothers with unhidden glee, her hands folded right under her breasts so that they nearly spill

Chapter 22: Moving OnLancelot’s P.O.V:We all stood silently in place as Anaya absorbed all the information. I thought she might have gone into shock, but she finally seemed to shake herself out of her stupor and moved towards the door.“Where are you going?” I asked as she turned the doorknob.“To the poolside,” she smiled hesitantly at Ace and me. “I’ll stay there for some time so you guys can talk. Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine.”With that, she opened the door and left without saying another word.“Was it really necessary to tell her?” I asked Ace after waiting to make sure Anna was out of earshot. “The less she gets involved in our world, the better it is for her.”“She doesn’t have a choice, Lance, not after she almost got your secret out.” Ace told me. “It was either this or she&rsqu

Chapter 23: UnionLancelot’s P.O.V:They answered the phone on the third ring.“Prince Lancelot, what a pleasant surprise!” Came the hoarse voice of the woman who was in charge of the New York division of the Hunters Council. “To what do I own this pleasure?”“You remember that there had been a public shooing outside my building last month?” I asked Tiara Cornwell.“Yes,” she said. “I remember you getting shot. Why?”“The bullet traces back to someone from your unit.”“Impossible!” Her voice sounded rougher than usual. “My squadron will never go against my orders!”“Well, someone has and if you don’t want this to turn into a big issue, do something about it.” I told her. “I’ll have my people send you the image of the man responsible tomorrow morning.”

Chapter 24: BelongingAnaya’s P.O.V:I stirred to the feeling of hands moving up and down my side."Mmmm", I moaned, shifting into his touch, the warmth of his naked body pressed to mine felt like pure heaven.His response to my moan pressed against my butt a few seconds later, but by the feel of it, he'd had that hard on for quite some time now. He was pulsating, hot and ready against my behind and it cleared the sleep from my eyes as I opened them to stare into his molten lava gaze."How are you feeling?" His voice was rough, husky and sexy as hell."Ready for round three." I whispered, not quite able to find my voice yet...nah! It was how muchheaffected me."Anaya." It was a warning, his eyes serious yet concerned."A bit tired, but fine. I think the tiredness has more to do with our activities last night than you draining away my life-force." I answered, but hones

Chapter 25: Unexpected GuestsLancelot’s P.O.V:It was an hour later, when I was inside the shower, that I felt it, that familiar tug on my mind that always told me when she was nearby.“Damnit!” I cursed as I turned the shower off and then started drying up so I could get this meeting over with. Why the hell was she here?I dressed in a pair of black pants and a crisp white shirt before running my hands through my damn hair. Once I was ready, I checked on Anna to find her fast asleep. Good. She’d need lots of sleep to get back some of her energy. I locked the door to our suit on my way out and went downstairs, to the waiting area where I knew she would be. And I was proven right.“Ah! There he is. I’ll leave you two alone to catch up.” Melinda gave a smile coated with venom before she went in the direction of her suit.After the viper had left, I turned to

Chapter 26: ConsequencesAnaya’s P.O.V:I woke up to the sound of a cell phone ringing from a distance.The sound cut off a few seconds later, but I had already woken up. I rubbed my eyes with the back of my hand and stretched my arms on either side of me. That was when my hand connected with something warm right next to me and I opened my eyes with a start.“Lance?” I sat up in bed, leaning against the headboard and found him sitting next to me, dressed in a sweatshirt and loose sweatpants, sitting on top of the covers with his laptop placed on his lap.“What time is it?” I asked yawning as I looked outside at the darkened sky.“Nine.” He said without looking up from his laptop.“In the morning?” I frowned. Is it supposed to rain?“At night.” Lance corrected, finally closing his laptop and placing it on his bedside table.

Chapter 27: Ghosts from the PastAnaya’s P.O.V:“Tell me about how your father died.” It was Ace who asked that question while Lance sat beside me on the couch.We were still at Chloe and the shop has been temporarily closed to other customers for ‘emergency repairing’ purpose. Ace had arrived within half an hour along with a whole bunch of people, both human and Incubi, who were now looking all around the store, trying to figure out what happened. If my dead father suddenly giving me a visit wasn’t reason enough, Lance was also worried about the fact that someone had actually locked me inside the trial room and their purpose had yet to be determined.“He died in a car crash, ten years ago. He’d gone to Long Island for a company meeting but he never came back.” I told him calmly. Whatever Lance had done to me when he’d taken me out of that trial room, either he w
