LOGIN“We’ll see,” is all I manage to say, then I promptly end the mind-link with Heather.Before I can even tell Frank to go, he already takes initiative. He starts to drive into the neighborhood, stopping in front of the lab and getting out of the car at the same time that I climb out. His fists are cle
“You don’t have to come forward and be public about your existence like we are,” I declare. I have to admit, I had no idea about that clause in the treaty. But then again, Nikolai and Ares should have known. If we were indeed doing something we shouldn’t then they should have spoken up about it. “We
Valeria’s POVI’m rooted in my spot, staring at the man in front of me. But at this point I suppose I should stop calling him a man, because he’s so far from that.Everything about him screams something else. Even though my heart rate has slowed down I still feel like I can’t move. I just watch as h
“No, mommy.” Edith shakes her head. “He just looked at me. And when I stopped playing, he left. I’m just scared that he’s there watching me again. I really want to play but I’m worried about him. What if I go out there and he’s watching me again? What do I do?”I can’t stand to see her this scared w

Ares’s POVValeria’s scent is still all over me as I take another car and drive it myself, heading out of the Diamond Pack and into the forest surrounding it. Memories of her touch fill my mind, snapping me out of focus for a while.I can’t believe I finally found her. And I can’t believe that she i
Valeria’s POV“What?” I splutter, pushing Ares away. The spell has been broken. The only thing that lingers in the air between us right now is the fact that he’s going to take me to his palace. “But you can’t do that. I didn’t ask for that.”His gaze turns from calm to stern. “I’m afraid there’s not
“I know.” I close my eyes momentarily to drown the memories. “That’s why I had to send him away when I became the King. That’s why I had to take charge and tried to make him a soldier in the first place when my father was too weak to lead, too old to know what to do. But now Nikolai is back. What wi
Valeria’s POVI stagger back, nearly stumbling off the platform of the bed. The woman flicks her hair over her shoulder, revealing the dress she’s wearing.If you can call it a dress.It’s see-through, made of the thinnest red lace.
