Wendy was feeling a bit sluggish, so she had asked Chase to take her home to his house. We would be undoubtedly causing a great deal of noise getting me trained for the fight that we knew was coming. We didn't know when, but we knew it would be soon. I walked Wendy to the door with instructions to call me when she had arrived at Chase's and again when she woke up. She waved me off with some non-sense about me being overly paranoid. Liam walked with me not to see them off but because at this point, we were not going to leave each other unless it was necessary. I hated the fact of Wendy leaving with him, but we weren't positive about anything right now and I didn't want to risk hurting her without knowing what was going on and having proof of it."You just got back so humor me and call me when you get to Chase's house and again when you wake up." She hugged me tightly and agreed.Liam clapped Chase on the back and winked, "I guess I'll see you soon friend. I turned the surve

Liam and I had just gotten our clothes on when we heard Jaxon screaming up to us from the bottom of the stairwell."Wendy's in trouble!"My body felt cold as the blood drained from my face. I ran toward the door and down the stairs."What happened?" I said as soon as I got halfway down the staircase."No time to talk, watch the cameras! I'm going to her."Jax all but flew out of the door. Liam grabbed me by the arm and we ran to the surveillance room. There was nothing there. Oh wait! There she is.The screen played the grisly scene before my eyes. Wendy ran naked, her wings completely exposed as she fled from the man she loved."I have to go to her. We have to help her Liam," I pleaded."I have to break my promise. I'm going with Jax. As soon as I leave, I need you ward the front door with the same spell that you put on Ava's room."I nodded my head in a hurry and followed him to the door. I made quick work of putting the new ward up and

Liam cleaned the wood from the bathroom floor as I held a cool washcloth over my eyes, to reduce the swelling from my endless rounds of tears."Go figure we fix one door and break another.""That would be our style, wouldn't it?"I watched as he finished getting the last couple of splinters up with his hands."I'm sorry again that I made you do that," I apologized."It wasn't your fault and now that we both know where we stand, we can and will move past this.""You're right, as usual.""Something tells me I shouldn't get used to hearing that."I stood on my toes and kissed his cheek, "Damn right you shouldn't."He laughed and playfully spanked me as I walked by him to get dressed into my training clothes.I stood in front of the mirror that hung on the door of the walk-in closet and looked at my reflection. My gray eyes had stood out against the pale complexion of my face. The dark of my hair now pulled up tightly in a ponytail seeme

"Such fitting weather for a funeral," I thought to myself as I stared out at the rain. With Wendy being a faerie, we couldn't hold a traditional human funeral, so Chase and Liam crafted a coffin for her with their own two hands. It was beautiful, fit for a Queen, and a thousand times better than the ones you could order at a funeral home. Her resting place would be in Liam's back yard, in a beautiful spot lining the woods. Chase couldn't bring himself to return home yet, so we thought it was best to put her to rest here.Jax and I had tended to cleaning her up and dressing her, working diligently to remove any remnants of the monster that killed her. Jax had taken me to the cottage yesterday to pick out something for her to be laid to rest in. It took me hours to find her favorite yellow dress that I had made for her.Jax had taken two pictures from her nightstand to have blown up so they could sit beside her casket. One was of her and Chase. He had dipped her back and she

The drive home felt like it had taken twice as long as the drive there."I can't wait to get these shoes off," I said, cutting through the silence.He reached for my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. We pulled up to the gate and entered the pin to open it, so we could finish the drive to the house. Some of the lights were still on so I assumed Jax had taken over surveillance.We walked through the house to the surveillance room and were surprised to see Chase still watching the screens."Where's Jax?" I asked Chase.He turned to us and shrugged his shoulders and said, "I guess his date went well.""Ugh, eew!"Liam didn't bother to hide his chuckle. "I can take over, so you can go home and rest," Liam offered as he placed his hand on Chase's shoulder.I understood that we all have personal lives, but I was aggravated with Jax. Chase had just lost the love of his life and he promised to be back here to take over surveillance. I had never known
