I covered my face with my hands. He doesn’t want me. My wolves laid down and I knew they were sad. We know how you feel about Rowan. How you feel about Thoth if you are ever going to admit it? We already told you we won’t interfere, but Erubus just snuck up on us. Megan huffed out a breath as she flopped over. Nix nodded. We thought we were just getting past the anger and the hurt that the two of them caused us. So that we could all learn to work together. And we did. Nix sighed as she laid her head down on her paws. Okay. I can understand that. I sat back. But what happened?He was…just himself. No interruption. No human getting in the way with his emotions. Rowan talks himself out of a lot. Nix shook her head. He takes a lot onto himself, more than needed. He thinks that his mate will make or break the realm. Nix sighed. I feel bad for the weight he forces on himself. He must be exhausted all the time. Megan nodded. He never pushed us, never made me feel excluded or uncomfortabl

I spent three hours sorting through the papers in the box. My mind was full of codes of line and the random scribbled ideas that Rick had while building the security system. I groaned when my alarm went off. I was nowhere near done sorting through everything and I had zero clue what I was even looking for. I sat back on my heels and sighed. I jumped up from my bed and ran downstairs to grab a drink when there was a knock at the door. I glanced at the time and saw I had three minutes to get back to my room for the call. The knock sounded again, louder, impatient, and annoying. I sighed as I made my way to the front door. I opened it to see Brandon standing there with a basket of food and flower.“Hello…” I stood in the doorway as he took a step to come in. “Brandon, what are you doing here?” He smiled and tried to shove the flowers into my hands. “Hey baby, I came for dinner. I brought everything for us to have a picnic under the stars.” Something felt off.I looked down at my watch

“LYCAN!” My father shit to his feet and there was a thud that came from Thoth’s side. Nix stood there in all her glory. “Did you not find it weird that I was almost twice the size of a normal wolf?”My dad bent at his waist to look at the camera. “You are my pup. You are strong. I expected you to be big.” I shifted back to my body. His eyes widened, and he pointed a finger. “How did I never notice you keep your clothes? What the hell.”I laughed. “It’s a Lycan thing. It has nothing to do with power, or strength, like we were led to believe.” I sat back down and pulled the laptop to my lap. My father dropped into the chair. “Are you okay?”“Wait…” His eyes grew hazy for a minute. “You get your witch’s power from me, and your Lycan power from your mother?” His eyes snapped to mine and I nodded. “Son of a biscuit. That’s why she never told me.”“What, why?” I was confused. My dad sat back. “The same reason my mom never told my dad that her line was the first family. He was obsessed wit

“Save him?” Thoth’s voice was filled with confusion. “Why would you have to save him?”I felt my face freeze for a second. “Because he is being controlled with magic, surrounded by people who want to see him dead, and we don’t know who else is in on the plot.”Thoth grunted and my dad looked a little flustered. “Gavin?”I looked at my dad with a furrowed brow. “Dad?”He coughed. “Yeah?”Thoth sounded confused. “Why is Amy thinking she has to save the king? Why doesn’t she know everything?” My dad scratched behind his ear. “Okay, so don’t get mad.” Oh hell. What did he do? “But I thought it better to leave her out of it.”“What did you just say?” Thoth growled. “Are you telling me she has no clue what the king has been doing? The letters? The explanation? She received none of it.” He growled again. “These last years, she has been in the dark?”My father sucked in a breath. “Yes.” Thoth smashed something and my father winced. “In my defence, there was a reason for it.”“What’s that?” T

I opened my eyes to see my dad scribbling more notes. But his face was pale. He looked up and saw me watching. “Are you sure?”I nodded. “I’m sure.” I leaned forward. “Verity and Rick kissed and then she took off. The guys were talking, and I stood. I figured I had the upper hand and I had seen everything I needed to see. But somehow, even with Nix, Megan, and my magic, Rick caught me.”“How?” Thoth jumped in and this time I threw my head back and laughed. “You two can’t stay quiet, can you?” I wiped my eye from laughing so hard. “It’s comical.”My dad blushed. “I want to defend myself, but I can’t say anything.”Thoth sighed. “It’s the first time I have gotten to speak with you. I’m a little…excited.” He snorted as my dad glared at the other side of the screen. I could hear the smile when Thoth spoke next. “She’s a beautiful woman, Gav. Any man will be lucky to call her a mate, goddess given or chosen.” Even I could hear the interest in his voice, and I blushed, but my father just
