Zurac and I waited for Raina. Thankfully she'd been at the Dulce facility and would be here soon. A buzzing sound filled the air and Mortas pressed a button on an intercom on the wall.The bartender said there was a woman downstairs for her brother. "Send her up," he ordered and grinned at us. The door opened and Raina waltzed inside with her black hair falling loosely down her back. She looked lovely. Her green eyes raked the room and fell on Scotty. I watched as the Adlet jumped up and rushed to her. She fell back as he tackled her and started licking her face. I snickered as what Circe told me about Rain being associated with Scotty's mate made sense. Zurac grunted and was about to get up and I stopped him by pulling his arm."They're mates, leave them be," I said softly and he eyed me perplexed."So your baby daddy is going to be my sister's mate? Well shit, it could have been worse. He could have been yours and stole you from me," he said firmly and I chuckled softly that he had

"I'm Kenan Thorpe and my associate is Seth Jackson. Thank you for the brief meal and please don't run off. I would hate to terminate you doctor Rockford," the white-haired man said. I clenched my teeth and looked up at him and realized that his irises were very odd and goat-like. "You've heard of me?" I questioned him and he looked at me like I was daft."Of course doctor. You were one of our lesson studies and one of the highly wanted individuals by the world's military because your blood is very unique and could eliminate the entire project which ironically fell apart irregardless," he mumbled sourly. Seth ran his fingers through his thinning sable hair and surprised me by saying that Kenan was mixed with the DNA of some demon named Ezra. I snickered at that and he eyed me angrily. I cocked my brow and smiled."My mate carries a demon fire wolf and my best friend is marrying Ezra, I'm far from impressed and hardly terrified. Especially when my mate who is Alpha follows my scent and

Zurac told me he'd prepare Raven a bottle when it was time for her feeding and I thanked him. He nodded and left me in the room. I laid Raven on the bed and grabbed the landline phone within the room. I dialed the operator to get connected to the USA and asked for the Relruz hotel in Vegas. Thirty minutes later I was on hold waiting for Abby to answer. Once she got on she screamed into my ear."You're not dead," she squealed and I told her everything that had happened."Well shit Em, cook for the man," she suggested and I laughed."You never had a problem getting a man, just keeping them," she told me truthfully and I groaned. She told me her and Ezra were going to visit and she'd help me kick Zurac's dumb butt. I chuckled softly and told her I needed to do it the way the moon goddess wanted in order to get Aisha back but was thankful for her friendship and advice. "Hang in there hun, you're a very beautiful and amazing woman and if he can't see that then it's truly his loss," she mum

Zurac took Ezra outside to speak to him about the once part demon Kenan and show off the compound. I listened attentively to Abby as she discussed going to hell to meet with the actual devil. I glanced over at her son stripping off his shirt and showing his muscles to impress my child. Raven rolled her eyes and was searching for something in the couch cushions. Moments later, Abby and I were startled by a loud yell of ouch. I gasped softly at seeing the end of an obvious fork poking out of Noah's chest. I glanced over at Raven trying to look innocent."Raven, that's not nice," I said sternly and she glared at Noah and told us he was giving her kissy lips. Abby snickered and yanked the utensil out of his flesh. She wiped away the shimmering blood and said,"he heals fast but you shouldn't hurt him too much because it tires him out." Raven headed towards the taller boy and pecked his cheek telling him sorry. His red eyes flashed and he grinned devilishly and told her it was alright. He ma
