The Return
[Madison] The test was successful! I created a recording I would share with Tommy while I was at the camp. I made sure I had everything I would want for a week in the camp and reiterated my instructions to everyone in the house before getting into the car with Anders and Aria.Aria snuggled close to me for the entire ride. She was confused and upset. Maybe she was nervous about the camp, but I was certain about Nettleston’s death.The shapeshifters seemed to be wary of her through the entire morning. They were polite, but d

Questioning Revelations
[Madison] After the men seated themselves, I looked over at Anders and took his hand, placing our joined hands on the table while I held Aria’s below. We were the representatives of our people and we would present a united front against anything.Anders looked at the men. One of the trackers was an incubus and one was a shapeshifter, a tiger. I wondered if he was working on identifying the species. He had a lot of trouble with it. A concubus was more sensitive than an incubus, he should be able to tell.

The Men in the Morgue
[Madison] The men stood and went to the door. Anders, Aria and I followed them out. We headed toward a stairwell that went down under the camp. When we arrived on the lowest level, we followed twisting corridors until we came to a room being guarded by Tommy. I was relieved to see him. I wondered how I’d get to him otherwise.“Vasilia, Vasili.” He nodded.I walked over to him and took his hands in mine. I smiled as I used my tail to slip the recorder into his pants, making sure I stroked him w

Preparations
[Madison] Aria was silent, but not trembling by the time we reached the house. I knew she felt like this was her fault. The flavor of fear filled the car.“Don’t be afraid, angel. I won’t let him take you.” I murmured and stroked her back.“If not for me, you wouldn’t have to deal with this. I should’ve gone with him. You were brave enough to be taken to protect your friends and family, but I was weak. I only hurt you.” Aria wept.

A Queen's Sign
[Madison] Anders went to Drayce and knelt in front of him. “It’s okay, babe. We’re going to make sure he can’t make you do anything you don’t want to ever again.”“I didn’t think it was possible. My mother was one of the last full blooded dragons. He hunts down rare women to mate with. That’s why he must want Aria.” Drayce shuddered.“Vampires don’t have a deity. They gain power through mating. He’d probably paid the incubus to find and mate with sirens

Naming Anders
[Anders] Most of the shifters were gone, getting things together for the move. The only ones remaining in the room were Drayce and Will. Madison and I were quietly discussing the myths that were true when working against vampires. She knew a lot and told me she’d dealt with a couple vampires in the past. I made sure to add my knowledge from living with one for most of my life.“How can we help?” Landry asked as she and Poppy entered the room.The whole room brightened when Poppy came in. I’d always thought

Deities and Demons
[Madison] I watched over Anders as he slept, and remembered my own naming. It felt like I spent years with Morrigan learning to use the abilities I’d been given. We walked green fields and bloodied battlegrounds. I learned all of the lore associated with my goddess.Morrigan promised to be with me as long as I always honored her properly. The coming war was to be my greatest tribute. It would cut the strings of fate of those who would harm the world.My mother had been so excited when a

Reunion
[Madison] Over the next hour or so, I detailed my plans for preparing people for the upcoming fights. Small cats would be trained by Terra until an Alpha was found. Chris would take care of the larger cats until Rafe could arrive. Winston would train the bears and any other larger animals who didn’t have an alpha to train them. -‘We’re pulling up, Maddie!’ Serena said through our link.&l

Withdrawn Questions
[Aria] I was sitting on the ottoman watching everyone talk and get ready. I kept a careful eye on Jeremiah to see if he acted in a scary way, but he seemed pretty nice and polite. Serena, my sister, was talking with the succubae figuring out who was coming and who wasn’t so she could figure out feeding schedules and pairings. Gail told her Madison put her in charge of that.Celia, Terra, Winston, and Bryant were loading bags into the SUV and minivan in the drive way. When they came back, they started saying goodbye to the people who would stay behind. Trista quietly reminded Gail not

Reassurance
[Aria] Running her fingers along a perfect row of little silver throwing knives, Madison sighed. The entirety of her attention was on them. Ford looked a little put off by the attention she paid to the weapons. I remembered that Drayce said something about the Phantom using knives on people. She pulled out as strange leather strap and put it on her neck. I realized she was getting ready to fight, to kill, to try and save me from the vampire. It made her happy. Her attention was entirely on the case and its contents, like we all stopped existing.
