Chapter 131- Lawler POV           Entering my office, I move to the couches in front of the fireplace and sit. It may be a formal meeting in a way, but it does not deserve me sitting behind a big wooden desk. “What is all of this about?” Elnora demands in a dramatic tone. She knows exactly what this is about and is playing it off as though she doesn’t—giving them the chance to state their case as they see fit. Before I have an opportunity to speak, Talvin begins flooding her with information. “You see, mom, here in the Kingdom, everyone has a job to do. The old King would use the people within the Kingdom to his advantage and do horrible things to them if they did not obey. One of those things was to send them out into dangerous situations that could have killed them.” “That is awful!” Elnora’s hand moves to her mouth in shock. Her wide eyes move to Sydney and then me. “Please tell me you have since changed those evil methods?” He

Chapter 133- Lawler POV          It has been hours since I walked across the room and gave Elnora the attention she so desperately craved. Now, as I look down at her naked sleeping body draped across my torso, I smile. This is life. I think to myself.          A soft knock interrupts my thoughts. “Yes?” I whisper only loud enough that a Vampire can hear me. If they don’t, that means it is one of the boys, and I will have to get up. “Sorry, sir, I wanted to let you know that the creatures are getting nearer.” Sydney’s voice is strained. “Are they at the barrier?” I ask. “No, sir, they are coming from the other side of the mountains. I can feel them moving this way, though. There are roughly 30 of them. What action would you like me to take?”          Thinking only for

Chapter 135- Lawler POV “It will not change our desires, please, allow her to speak.” He insists. His words are kinder as his attention moves over to Sydney. “I did not know of your sophistication, nor did I know about your family and kind. That is due to my own arrogance and inability to locate any information beyond the basic knowledge of or people. I want to apologize profoundly for what I have done in the past.” Her voice came out softer and calmer than I had expected. She is genuinely giving him an apology from deep within. “You were doing as your King had requested. You have not had a good life, young one. I know of your past. The night that the King came to your house and demanded things of your mother, do you remember?” His question catches me off guard, and I look to Sydney. Her eyes are filled with sadness and horror. “Yes.” She breathes sadly.“I asked him to spare you. My wife and I had spo

Chapter 137-Lawler POV I recognize the three older women instantly. They were around when I was growing up and left the kingdom well before my grandfather passed away. “How did you find us?” Martha asks in her sweetest voice. “Why are you in my kingdom?” I return the question. “There is no reason we are not to be here,” Megan states with a snarky attitude. “You are not a member of the Kingdom; you are in a hidden area and are here during a breach. Not to mention, you were exiled.” “That ended when the King who exiled us passed away. Now we may come and go as we please.” Becky sneers. “I will make this abundantly clear.” I begin as I step forward. “From this moment on, through all the Kings to come, you are all hereby exiled. You may not come into the Kingdom for any reason. If you have a question for the present King, you may summon him to come into the human world only to spea

Chapter 139- Elnora POV          “Sabastian, I am so sorry.” I begin in a panic as I reply to him. “Please do not be sorry for one moment.” I can feel his happiness for Izzy seeping through our link. “Ok. Well, we are coming for you tomorrow. We need you to be ready.” “Tell him to make sure they are both ready and let him know who is coming,” Lawler instructs me. “Sabastian, Lawler says,” I begin. “I heard him. I do not know how I did, but I did. I cannot tell you how wonderful it is that I was able to hear him just now. Not hearing my best friend’s voice for this long saddened me more than anyone will ever know.” “Tomorrow night, you and I will have a drink. I missed having you around Sabastian.” Lawler takes over the conversation. “I would like that. After I introduce you to Izzy, that is.” “I look forward to meeting her.
