Lilly POV I should have known Lisha wouldn't just take the daggers and not ask questions; it's not in her nature. “I don't know how they were forged; all I know is they are hundreds of years old.” Lisha rolls her eyes, “Not good enough, Lilly; keep talking.” I huff at her; she’s a pain in my ass. “When Jasmine and I were little, our mother didn't tell us much about our past. I know our family has had the daggers in their possession for generations.” I pause; Lisha waves her hands irritably for me to continue, “An agreement was made between the witches and werewolves that the daggers would stay in this realm. When my mother died, it fell to Jasmine to keep them safe. When Jasmine dies, they will be passed onto her children and so and so on.” Lisha shrugs in puzzlement, “Then why give them to me?” I don't know whether to tell her or not; Jasmine made me promise I wouldn't. I know Lisha doesn't believe me when I say, “I don't know; Jasmine didn't go into details, Lisha.”

Chapter Thirty-One
Lisha POV It's been a week since I last saw Damian; he mind links me every morning to say hello and then again at night to say good night. I am getting angrier as each day goes by. The only good thing about staying at the cabin is that I get to venture outside, with his stipulation that I must remain within the wards Jasmine has placed around the clearing. Jasmine has been like a bear with a sore tooth; her mood swings drive us insane. Out of the corner of my eye, I catch Lilly and Jasmine whispering as they steal glances at me under hooded eyes. Jasmine’s face flushes with anger before she storms toward me and says, “Does he know Lisha?” I roll my eyes at her and ask myself, what the fuck is she on about now? “Does who know what, Jasmine?” Jasmine growls at me, “Does Damian know?” If Jasmine weren't heavily pregnant, I would smash her in the face; everything about her manner is threatening toward me. I go to walk away from her when her following words stop me midstride. “

Allana POV I should have spoken to Cassandra before now. I hide in the tunnel that leads to Cassandra's chambers; once Gabriel leaves the room, I pull the tapestry aside and step into the room. I roll my eyes when I see Cassandra tangled in the bed sheets. She opens her eyes when she senses my presence and hisses, “About time you got here, Allana; it's been months.” I snarl, “It takes time to bring a realm back from the brink of chaos, Cassandra.” Cassandra climbs out of her bed and slips a robe around her shoulders before saying, “You do know Lisha is alive, don't you?” I smirk and ask, “And whose fault is that?” Cassandra's lips curl in disgust as she says, “Yours, Allana, you organized her escape from my realm.” “I had no choice Cassandra; I have been acting as the devoted grandmother for the last nineteen years; Zane and Mathew were getting suspicious and kept asking why I hadn't teleported in here and brought her home.” She shrugs as she says, “It doesn't matt

Chapter Thirty-Three
Tyler POVI don't remember my life before I woke up on the castle grounds. As soon as I opened my eyes, all my mind could register was the excruciating pain that ran through my body; it felt like I was being ripped apart. There wasn't an inch of my body that wasn't writhing in agony. I couldn't breathe; blood was flooding my lungs; I remember screaming when the wolves picked me up and carried me to what is now my chambers. I passed out again, only to be jerked back to consciousness by Damian when he pulled the arrow from my chest. When I finally regained full consciousness, I asked what had happened, and they told me I had been shot in the chest with a silver arrow, I nearly died, and it took me months to recover from my injuries. The wolves that found me also said the village I lived in had been attacked, and everyone there had died; no one was left.Jasmine was one of the first wolves I saw when I opened my eyes. She has short brown hair and large green eyes; Jasmine is tall and

Lisha POVDamian has summoned the Alphas and their Betas to the throne room. My heart pounds in my chest as I stand beside Damian, waiting for them to arrive. Lilly mind-links me, “For god's sake, Lisha, calm down, or they will smell your fear.” One of the omegas offered me a glass of water. I took a small sip as the Alphas entered the hall. I mind-link Lilly, “How many are there?” Lilly’s eyes scan the room before she answers, “Only fifty have bothered to show up.”Lilly stands on my right, her hand rests on the dagger she has strapped to her hip, Sharna is standing behind me, Tyler is directly behind Damian, and Theo is standing as far away from me as possible. Damian takes my hand and whispers,“Stay here with Lilly and Sharna. I will be back in a minute.”He motions Theo and Tyler to follow him and walks over to the Alphas at the front of the room. Even with my Fae hearing, I can't quite make out what he is saying to them. The tension in the room rises as more wolves enter; m

Chapter Thirty-Five
Lilly POV The smith has promised he will have our weapons ready first thing in the morning; now, I want to talk to Sylvia and see what she thinks about what Jasmine has told us. I knock on the gran's door and chuckle when she opens the door wearing a fluffy pink dressing gown and pink slippers. She waves me inside before quickly shutting the door behind me and says, “I don't want my neighbors seeing me in my pajamas, Lilly.” I follow her into the kitchen and watch as she puts the kettle on and places a plate of biscuits on the table; once the tea is made, she sits down and asks, “What's worrying you, Lilly?” I take a deep breath and tell her everything Jasmine told Lisha, Sharna, and me this morning. Gran sighs as she takes hold of my hand and whispers, “Jasmine is exactly like your mother. If she dreamed this would happen, then it will.” I tighten my hold on grans hand and ask, “Will you come with us?” She shakes her head, “No, sweetheart, I am too old to shift, and

Chapter Thirty-Six
Lisha POVI wipe the tears from my face when I realize Damian left without waking me; it breaks my heart that Damian won't listen to me, and leaving him is the only option I have to keep our baby safe. I climb out of bed and grab a small bag out of the walk-in before hastily throwing some clothes in it; there’s a soft knock on the door. When I open it, I see Lilly waiting in the hall. I hand her the bag and follow her to Jasmine and Tyler's room; Sharna is leaning against the wall tapping her foot impatiently as she growls at Lilly. “What took you two so long?” Lilly snarls back at her and hisses, “We can't look like we are running, you fool; if it gets back to Damian, he will become suspicious.”Lilly knocks on Jasmine's door, and when she opens it, Jasmine ushers us inside. She has a bag sitting on the table filled with clothes and food for Asher; Jasmine refuses to make eye contact with me as she hands me a piece of paper and says, “Once you enter the cave, repeat these words t

Chapter Thirty-Seven
Skyla POVWhen Xavier first turned me, it was difficult to control my blood lust; I am ashamed to say I couldn't get enough. I now understand Andras’s addiction to Fae blood; no other species in our world compares to the exotic taste of Fae blood as it tantalizes your taste buds and flows down your throat. The difference between Andras and I is that I only kill the Seelie; I justify my actions to myself by saying I am only making them pay for the years of cruelty they have inflicted on the rest of us. I sneak out of the castle while Xavier is asleep. He didn't know I overheard him talking to our guard. Cassandra’s warriors have been seen in the werewolf village that Xavier and I lived in with Lisha and Tyler; it's not uncommon for the Seelie to be seen there since Lisha’s disappearance. Lisha and Tyler have been gone for twelve months; Allana said she feared they were both dead as she couldn't locate either of them. I still hope they will return, but Xavier keeps telling me it's wish

Chapter Thirty-Eight
Lisha POVWe take turns carrying Asher as we run; it takes longer than we thought to reach the outskirts of the village I grew up in. My childhood home is just above the rise in front of us; Lilly, Sharna, and I have agreed to stop there overnight as Asher has been restless all day. Just as we are about to enter the clearing behind the house, I freeze when I see a familiar figure walking toward the spot where Allana opened the portal. I mind-link Sharna and Lilly, screaming, “Stop, don't enter the clearing.” We hide amongst the trees watching as Gabriel and half a dozen Seelie guards search my mother's house. Each of us is exhausted, but we have to keep going. Our plans of resting here for the night have been ruined. We slink back into the thick forest surrounding the house, and I take the lead and run toward Allana’s cave. Once we are far enough away that Gabriel and his guards do not sense us, I stop and sit on a fallen tree to rest. I haven't told Lilly and Sharna that I felt Dam

Chapter Thirty-Nine
Skyla POV I knew Allana was lying to us when she said Lisha and Tyler were dead; if Xavier had listened to me, he would be here now and would finally know his sister was alive. Allana always avoided my questions regarding Lisha and Tyler; everything I heard about Allana and Cassandra must be true; why else would she keep Lisha’s and Tyler's whereabouts a secret? I hug Lisha tightly and follow her into the cave expecting to see Tyler; when I realize he isn't there, I ask, “Where’s Tyler?” Lisha shakes her head slowly as she says, “I don't know, Skyla.” I look at Lisha in disbelief and ask, “What do you mean you don't know?” She sinks slowly into the chair, wrapping her arms around her stomach; her eyes glisten with tears as she answers. “After the attack on the village, we were taken to the werewolf realm; a couple of days ago, there was an uprising; Sharna and Lilly helped me escape with Tyler's son.” There are two she-wolves asleep on the floor near the bed; I walk toward
