“Then why the fuck are we on horses?” Killian asked, and we dismounted, pulling magic to us as we became one with the jetstream. “It could be, but we’re ready for whatever they try to use against us,” I snarled, unable to fight the beast within me, demanding I rush to her. “It could be a trap,” Brander pointed out, and we all turned toward him. “You feel that?” Killian asked as he turned his horse, facing the forest that loomed endlessly before us. My soul cried to go, and before I’d given the order, we all rushed toward our waiting mounts. It was a broken wail, one that begged to be answered. Everything within me demanded I go to it, that I follow the sorrowful howling coming from off in the distance. “What the fuck is that?” Brander groaned, his teeth pushing through his gums as his claws did the same.Ī quick glance toward Killian showed he’d fared no better. My heart pounded against my ribs, painfully mirroring the need to rush blindly toward the noise. The hair on my neck rose as I turned in the sound’s direction. I dismounted to join him until a noise started, stopping me in my tracks. “How bad?” Brander asked, dismounting to walk toward the dead soldiers. “Lore and Greer?” I asked, frozen in place. They dragged Aria into the forest as I stayed to defend Lore and Greer. “She was fighting with us against them, but we got overpowered, and something prevented us from calling our creatures to the surface. I don’t think they intended her to live for long,” Killian stated. “I’ll fucking kill Aria myself,” I growled. I remained frozen in place, unwilling to see who we’d lost. He lowered his eyes and bowed his head where bodies lay ready for burial. Blood turned to ice in my veins as Killian lifted his gaze, his hands covered in blood. We moved back onto the road, and I stopped dead in my tracks, staring at the sight before my eyes. That didn’t speak sweet mother figure to me, and I didn’t assume she wasn’t aware of Aria’s father’s identity. Aria had been a ticking time bomb set to go off, but Aurora had allowed Aria to remain where she could have slaughtered an entire race of innocent people. Aurora fed Aria’s mind with knowledge, while Aria fed her mind folklore, legends, and fantasy books.Īurora had hidden Aria’s scent, knowing she wasn’t meant to be among those in the mortal realm. I didn’t trust them, not one fucking bit. What were her motives? It was unheard of for Hecate witches to sacrifice for their sisters or offspring. Aurora had asked them to return with her, yet she hadn’t mentioned it to Freya’s daughters, who she’d raised as her own.
She’d spoken about it openly to the alphas. She’d planned on bringing the girls back into the Nine Realms, but why? If anyone could have accomplished that spell to bring down an army of warriors, it would have been Hecate witches, an entire coven of them to be exact.

Spread out into fighting formation and be silent.” I looked back at the trail, frowning as it occurred to me that we might have been called away so Aria could escape.Īnger rushed to the forefront of my mind at the thought her family would be so evil as to murder thousands of people to free her.
