[Chanel’s POV]When we arrive at our destination, I don’t hesitate to get out of the car and then wait as Giddeon follows suit. Once he joins me, he leads the way up to a simple building and knocks on the door, then steps back.For a moment, we just stand there watching and waiting as nothing happens. Frowning, I move forward and prepare to knock again. If this bastard wasn’t going to answer this time, then I would kick the fucking door down. However, I don’t have to take such extreme measures as the door opens just before I pound my fist on it and a tired-looking man lays eyes on us.“Who...” he begins, until he sees Giddeon. “Oh,” he smirks, his face lighting up. “I was wondering when you would come searching for me.”“If you knew we were coming, why didn’t you come to us first?” I ask before Giddeon can say anything. “And since you seem to know why we are here, I don’t need to explain anything.”“Fiesty,” the man grins. “Just like I like my women.”“Gross,” I gag. “We didn’t come h

[Anthrose’s POV]The sound of a rapid heartbeat echoes in my ears, but I’m not certain whose heartbeat it is—is it mine? Is it Chanel’s? And a warmth so intoxicating presses against me, warming even the coldest parts of my soul and heart.What the hell was I even doing? And why couldn’t I step away? Why didn’t I want to separate myself from this warmth that I was feeling for the first time in so long?I was being greedy. I was being a selfish bastard, taking advantage of this when I knew that I couldn’t offer anything to the one who was providing it for me.“Anthrose,” Chanel’s voice is soft as her fingers press against my cheeks, causing thrums of energy to radiate through me. “Does this mean...”I don’t let her finish what she is saying before I press my fingers against her lips, stopping her from uttering the words that could cause me to topple into the abyss of desire and pleasure that I’ve fought so hard to avoid for all of these years. Dammit. Why was it so hard for me recently

[Anthrose’s POV]I sit in the living room, listening to the chatter that is taking place, but not registering anything that is said. Although I know I should be focusing on this stuff since it involved our saving Diego and Rosalie, all my mind could stay on was Chanel.Fuck. This was frustrating, but it was something that needed to be done; after all, there was just no way that we could ever be together. Not only because she was my pupil and I was her teacher, but because, as someone with no title or anything to promise, I didn’t deserve her.Sighing, I lean back and let my wander back to a time when I thought that maybe there could be something. Where I still had hope of the future.I’ll never forget the day when my respect for the leaders of Crystal Fang was destroyed completely.“If you’re that worried, why don’t you go look for her?”The voice comes from directly beside me, snapping me out of my head and pissing me off at the same time.“I don’t know what you mean.” I mutter, lett

[Geo’s POV]I listen to the sounds of the adults quietly talking, their conversations going on even late in the night. From what I could hear, I knew that they were in a state of waiting for the one that Aunt Chanel and Uncle Giddeon sought out today would be able to get the answers that Willy was currently seeking for me. As a ghost, he was able to travel anywhere, and right now he was certainly on that island and roaming through the temple.Sighing, I look out the window beside me, taking in the area below, noting the different entities that walk there. They’re a mixture of ghosts and humans, but none of them are Willy.“Hurry up,” I grumble, crossing my arms. “You’re taking too long.”As the words leave my lips, lightning flashes, drawing my gaze to the sky to find it is glowing a crimson that it wasn’t previously.“What?” I gasp, causing Landon to jump up in bed.“Wah, what is it?” He gasps, looking around wildly. “What happened?”As the words leave his lips, another round of ligh

[Chanel’s POV]I stare at Geo, processing what it is that he is telling me while I can almost feel Anthrose’s need to jump the gun and volunteer to be the one to go and do what Geo is instructing.“Alright,” I announce just as Anthrose tries to say the same. “Then it looks like we don’t have any other choice. We are going to have to go to this island and get those artifacts so that we can save your parents and the world.”Of course, I knew that there were probably dangers waiting for us there and maybe even things that we didn’t quite understand or want to face, but honestly, it was better to do that than allow the world as we knew it to end.“Geo,” I say now, drawing the boys gaze to me. “I need you to get as much information about the location of those artifacts for us. Does your…” I stop, remembering that he was saying that a ghost was giving him this information. “Does your... friend... have any idea of where we should be looking?”At my question, Geo looks away and to a spot righ
