Theo hugged her tightly, then reluctantly left. As soon as he was gone, Joanna changed out of her pajamas and into her favorite outfit. The maid who cared for her came in and spoke quietly, "Everything is ready." Theo would never guess that the woman he had hired to spy on Joanna was actually working for her parents. Joanna followed the maid out the back door. The moment the black car drove away from the villa, flames exploded behind them in a fiery blaze.

I said. "I came to this packhouse because my mother sent me here," she replied. "The evidence came after." "Your mother," I repeated. "Tell me about your mother Joanna."

Her body was emitting blue light that sparked the curiousity of everyone on the training ground except Alasdair, Micah and Mark who had terrified expression

With a loud roar full of all the emotions that she had been feeling for the past couple of hours, Leah charged at the black dragon. The black dragon looked up in surprise to see Leah’s large red dragon aiming straight for it. Inside the black dragon, Theo seethed with his own anger and jealousy.
