My mouth opened, but no sound came out. “Executed?” I finally managed to croak. “You’re going to… kill me?” “I gave you more than enough chances,” he said without facing me. “And each time, you’ve made me regret it.”

I nod once, silently giving him the signal. He takes his place, Parker standing beside him. “I called you here,” Theo begins, “because we have a development in the killer’s case.” He gestures toward me. “Eva has received the verdict and will carry out the execution in two days.” “With all due respect, my king,” one of the elders says, “why are we being informed? Until now, the executioner’s business was never our concern. What changed?” Theo looks to me. I stand and walk to the center so they can all see me clearly.

Sir Caden's yell came through a slide window connecting to his office. "Where is my coffee, Ms. Beckett?" He yelled. "Wait, sir, I'm doing it!" I said. As I pressed the coffee maker, my hands trembled. I was startled that there was no coffee. I tried pressing it again, but the result was the same. "It's broken!" I told myself. "Does that mean I'll make him coffee myself?" I wondered, concerned. Sir Caden yelled again, "Faster, Ms. Beckett! Bring me my coffee now!" The hot water in the dispenser was already hot, so I simply used that and and make a coffee.

“They have orders to execute both of you. Is Kade awake?” “No. He is in a coma.” “Then they will kill you both while he sleeps. I’m sorry Sage. There is nothing more I can do.” The line went dead. Sage looked at Kade’s unconscious face.

At this very instant, I am packed into his arms, and Blake regards us with a terrible glare as if anything could bring about our deaths. "Artemis, my dear, I have arrived and am now in your presence. I don't care if someone or the Alpha catches us. I am willing to take the drastic and irreversible action of shooting a bullet through my brain not once but twice, resulting in a head execution and ultimately being beheaded. I don't mind the outcome as long as I know that my actions were done to benefit you somehow." Kade provided a detailed explanation, elaborating on the subject matter at hand. The situation is causing me a great deal of discomfort as Kade demonstrates an overwhelming amount o

Kenna strode right to my bed and ripped the thin blanket off me. My flat stomach was exposed to the cold air. The place that once held our hope. "An act?" Her voice cracked like a whip. "What is there for a mother who just lost her child to act about?" She turned on Cade, her gaze like a knife. "Your heir is dead. Are you happy now, Cade?!"

Come on.” He moves deeper into the tunnel, speaking into his comm unit. “Package secure. Moving to location Bravo.”

I shut it quickly and rushed to Kade’s side. “Is he going to be okay?” I asked in a faint voice. “He will be. But his kingdom? That’s what might not survive,” Kael said, tearing open Kade’s shirt. I counted the stab wounds—eighteen. Tears streamed down my face. This wasn’t meant to be an arrest.
