Violet's pov"He's here." Hunter voiced."Who? Xaden?" I asked in bewilderment.His eyes locked with mine for a moment. "Aye." He nodded.Immediately, I began to walk outside, but was pulled back as fast as I had turned to leave."What?" I snapped."Are you sure you want to go to him?" Hunter asked.Vexed, I stared right back at him. "Yes. He's here for me." I said."You think?" He asked dubiously."Then why would he come here?" I asked."Why do you think so?" He scoffed.Totally pissed, I asked. "What have you done now?""Why don't we find out." He answered.Hunter nudged me towards the door where Xaden was sighted, already dismounting Shadow. He watched me closely as he made his way towards me. As soon as he got close, I felt a small wind across my face. As soon as that happened, my body suddenly became so tight it felt like I was about to burst in twos. I struggled to steady myself as I felt a hand crept close to my neck. My fingers itched to wrap my fingers around my neck. But I d

Xaden's povI sensed something as soon as Mira left the room. She knew about the Mirror Blade but was hiding it. I flipped through the pages of the very old looking scroll I held. I had lost it when Luna Sera had given it to me. On the night that everything was destroyed. I remembered vividly. It was my birthday. I had thought to sneak Violet out of the grounds to go play with her and express my feelings for her. Also, to show her I now had the ability to transform. It was supposed to be a very special night. However, Luna Sera had caught on and I've had no choice but to ask her permission. Then surprisingly, she had agreed to let us go, with a strong admonition not to return for a while.I had been young and foolish. I was so ecstatic when she had given her approval. Even Lord Daemon hadn't objected, although he didn't seem happy about it. Yet, I didn't catch on.It was strange that a parent would allow their only child out of their sight, not to talk of their grounds.Luna Sera gave

Xaden's pov"You must be crazy!" She growled as we made our way back to the castle."It's no longer news, Violet." I answered."But why did you tell Mama that? Isn't that very stupid? Could I be so heartless as to neglect my Mama to make wild love when she was ill?" She scoffed. "It was six days." She added."It doesn't matter. She was asleep all through the five days, then woke up last eve." I replied calmly.She looked at me wearily for a short while and continued forward. I matched her pace, and was soon walking beside her."I want to walk alone." She said, as we neared the courtyard."Not until I've had some explanation." I muttered, holding her wrist to halt her."About what?" She threw, facing me."Who was the man?" I asked."How about you first explaining what came upon you that night. You weren't yourself." She said, a disgruntled expression on her face.I still couldn't believe the fact that she still felt some form of emotion for me."Later." I answered gruffly."Had it happ

Xaden's pov"It's gone." Xavier said, as soon as the study door closed behind him. He extended one that looked exactly like it to me."You sure?" I asked."Aye, Khaun." He answered.I smiled. I had set a trap and she had fallen for it.My hand snuck into the pocket of my breeches, as I stroked the blunt part of the Mirror Blade."She fell for it." I spurted."We are not sure she took it." Xavier answered."True. But she's the first I'm weary of. Whoever is behind this has his people positioned around." I said.A pained expression crossed Xavier's features. "I don't believe the men who have fought and laboured together with us, are capable of betraying our trust just like that, Khaun." He answered."You don't have to believe. It's who they are and would always be." I returned."This MirrorBlade, what is it capable of?" He questioned."Except that I know I was given as a gift and lost it, I don't know." I answered."And Luna Sera?" He prodded."Of course she knows something." I said."T

Violet's povAs we continued in silence, we got closer to the stable. I made a wave at the stable boy but stopped abruptly. Panicked, Danya gripped my arm. " What's wrong?" She inquired.My eyes never strayed from where he stood, prancing and examining a particular horse. Something about the steed looked familiar. But since he was standing directly before it, I couldn't really tell which horse. On a closer look, I made the most shocking discovery-- it was shadow!"Quick! Run to the castle. Go get Lord Xaden." I said to Danya."But my lad..." She began."Go!" I barked, pushing her in the direction of the castle.Then as I began to trudge towards the stable, my head whirled.How dare he show his face here?Elia's scream still rang in my ears. And she was just a few minutes away from here. Does he know she stays in the castle now?And now, he's with Shadow? I needed to stop him fast before he...Just then, he turned, and our eyes met. A look of recognition crossed his face, but he reined
