“Stay away motherfucker. You and your little henchmen! Stay away from us. Devin Deacon will find you!” “Is he gone?” I ask, slowly raising my body off the ground. “Yes, babes! They are gone.” I hear the door quickly open. I look over the couch. McKenzie is grabbing the card off the stair. “Jackson Cruz! I fucking knew it! It was your dad, Cassie!”

Oh my Goddess, I don’t even know what I really need and if I don’t know, how can the Moon Goddess possibly know? L - You have to trust that our Moon Goddess knows what is best for us. D - But how can I, I have seen the errors she has made, look at who she mated Cassie to.

My skin crawls as we head to the next man, seated near the captain of the ship, the two men turn their eyes to me and I notice that they look identical. “These are the twins, Leo and Deo, they know the sea and Land really well, they are really good with helping me sneak around and hide” Rafaelle, turns to me with a mysterious expression on his face like he doesn't even understand them himself. “I don’t want to be out here” I turn to him trying to keep my voice steady. “You don’t have much of a freaking choice Bella, but don’t worry” he whispers in my ears, his hot breath blowing on my cheek, and I feel a wave of nausea wash over me.

They were about to force his. The study inside Devereaux Château was dimly lit, the only sources of illumination coming from the flickering fire in the stone hearth and the glow of Ethan Grey’s laptop.

"Hello there little one, so you want to know my name, do you?" Celeste reached out to pat Chris's cheek. "Yes, please, if it's okay with you?" I could see that Deuce was momentarily surprised. He then leaned into her touch. "My name is Deuce, it is nice to meet you Celeste." "It's nice to meet you, Deuce."

He then motioned for the other man to come near.

Shadows shifted—danger closing in. “I’ll explain everything. But there’s something you need to know first.” He leaned close, voice barely above a whisper. “You weren’t just caught in the crossfire of this conspiracy, Jenna. You were the reason it started.” Her stomach dropped. “What?” Before he could answer, gunfire exploded from the tunnel entrance. Light swept through the darkness. Voices shouted orders. “Target is confirmed! Take them both alive!” Aaron grabbed Jenna’s wrist and yanked her into motion. “Run!”
