AEGON'S POV

" Yes." She agreed quietly.

" We've searched everywhere but there's been no news of him." She continued in a voice that was much softer than I had ever heard her use.

" I have to get out of here." I announced, forcing myself upright, ignoring my body's protests.

"Not for another week at least." She chided, getting to her feet and pushing me back to lie on my back.

" No, you don't understand." I protested, fighting her every step of the way. "I can't stay here, I have to find Theo."

" Be reasonable, Aegon!!!" She demanded, poking me in the shoulder so hard I winced. " You have two broken ribs, a broken arm and two shattered legs. You can't charge off anywhere." She said,

" That's my son out there mother." I cried.

" My little boy, your grandson. He's with a bunch of heartless strangers who's had him for three whole days, doing the goddess alone knows what to him. I'm not leaving him in their clutches for a minute longer!!!!!" I declared vehemently..... or at least as veheme

    A HIDE OUT ABOUT THIRTY LEAGUES FROM THE CLEARWOOD PACK. NICO'S POVFrom the doorway, I glared at the man sprawled out on the couch in derision. He really was a pain in the ass and I couldn't wait to be done with the mission so I could finally get rid of him. Sure he was good with his hands and was the best choice to build the weapon I wanted and needed, plus he was the only one with a strong enough vendetta against my darling aunt and her family to actually want to take them down which made him a valuable addition to my cause, but there were times - like right now, when he gets more trouble than he was worth." Tell me again why you had to take the child?" I demanded startling him out of the doze he had been about to fall into.Good, I thought.You have no business sleeping after giving me such a headache." Because my daughter told me to." He replied in that gravelly voice of his that made me want to grab him by the scruff of his shirt and punch him in the face.I didn't do that th

    NICO'S POVYou could say Krystal saw the world through rose colored glasses but where everyone saw a cold blooded murderer who killed his own mother, she looked at me and saw the sweet little boy I had once been. And today was no different." Nicky!!!!!!!!." She screeched, throwing her arms around me, baby and all." Where have you been?" She demanded, leading me into the kitchen where Levin was sitting down to his morning cup of coffee." Nico!!!" He boomed holding out his hand for a firm handshake as Krystal pushed me into the chair across from his." You really should drop in more often." He said as Krystal set a cup of coffee in front of me. " Krystal's been driving herself sick with worry."" I have." Krystal agreed, taking the little tot from my arms and cradling him to her chest. " We heard you had an altercation with the Alpha." She added." An altercation?" I asked with a grimace as I took a tentative sip of the coffee.In all the years I had lived with them, I had never mana

    AEGON'S POV"Goddess be praised!!!!!!!!!" I exclaimed, hefting myself to my feet and by some miracle I managed to remain standing for a whole minute before I had to grab my mother for support." Bring him to me at once." I demanded." And break the news to his mother." I added." Wellll....." Theo drawled suddenly avoiding my gaze." We don't exactly have him yet." He explained in a low voice.I fell back in my seat with a heavy thud." Theo." I called softly in a soft and gravelly voice. " Yes Alpha."" If you want your head to continue being attached to your neck in the next five minutes, then you had better start explaining.""We.......we........" He started and sputtered to a stop. " A minute and counting.." I informed him coldly.Swallowing hard he tried again."We don't have the young one yet alpha, but we know where he is." He explained, all in one rushed sentence." What are you doing here then?" My mother demanded." When you should be on your way to retrieve my grandson.""

    NICO'S POVI was too stunned to move and just stood there motionless, watching as the closest things I had to parents were led away by the alpha's men.What's going on? I mentally wondered, sure that I was hallucinating or something. I had to be. I just had to be hallucinating, maybe all those sleepless nights had finally caught up with me.IN THE PALACEDAGNA'S POVI was too outraged to sit, so I paced the length and breadth of Aegon's room where he had left me earlier, as I waited for nightfall so I could run home to my father and demand an explanation. And he had better have a reasonable explanation or I would give him a piece of my mind.AEGON'S POVI had spent the past two hours smiling so wildly, it was a wonder I hadn't splinted my jaw, and I still couldn't stop smiling. My son was back and I couldn't be happier.All I wanted to do was hold him in my arms and never let go, but since I couldn't do that as he was firmly clutched in his mother's arms, I settled for smiling at him

    DAGNA'S POVFather must have been waiting for my arrival, because although it was way past midnight when I arrived, the front door was still open.Storming through the door, I slammed it shut as I strode to his bedroom, screaming his name at the top of my lungs."Father!!!!!" " Father!!!!!!""Father!!!!!" I screamed, too upset to call him dad." You really should learn some manners dear daughter." His calm voice from behind as I reached out to open his bedroom door.I whirled around to find him standing in the doorway to his lab." How could you????" I screamed, lunging at him and grabbing him by the scruff of his shirt." How could you do this to me?????" I demanded shaking him back and forth with all my strength." How could you ruin my plans this way?" I demanded.He let me continue until I had blown out all the steam.My voice was hoarse by the time I finally let myself sag against his chest." Now that you're done with your rants, it's time to listen to reason." He finally said,

    DAGNA'S POVSeveral minutes later, after a quick rummage through the bathroom cupboards to retrieve the candles and toys I had left there months earlier the stage was set. The tube was three quarters filled with hot water. I had closed the windows and lighted the fat red candles and neatly arranged the toys on the small table Aegon had had commissioned for this very purpose." You can come in now." I called Aegon who I had charged with making sure we were not disturbed for the next two hours.He took his time coming in, and when he finally did, his jaw dropped open and nearly hit the floor at the sight of me standing there, in nothing but my birthday suit.This was one of the reasons I had fallen for Aegon in the first place, it didn't matter how many times he'd seen me naked, the reaction was always the same....... and instantaneous." You......you....lol...look.... amazing." He stuttered." Thank you." I said with a coy smile, batting my eyelids at him. " You don't look too bad your

    DAGNA'S POV"Ignore it." I begged." Whoever it is will get the hint and go away soon enough." I said.I couldn't have been farther from the truth however, for no about sooner were the words out of my mouth than the knock was repeated, this time in quicker succession." Alpha!!!!" Theo's voice called through the locked door. " Your mother wants you, she says it's urgent."I groaned in frustration as Aegon slid me off his thighs and got to his feet." You're not leaving now are you?" I asked incredulously as he tossed the paddle on the bed and rummaged around for clothes to wear." Of course, it's urgent." He said, pulling on a pair of slacks."I'm sure she can wait a few minutes." I protested, sidling over to him and wrapping my arms around his waist." Dagna." He said, softly pushing me away as he reached a shirt. " She wouldn't say it was urgent if it wasn't."" But I need you now." I protested as he headed for the door." I'll be back before you know it." He assured me, coming over

    NICO'S POV" I have nothing to fear from you." She declared." Good, there's no reason I shouldn't tell my story then." I said. She glared at me for a few seconds before turning back to her son. "I've had enough of this." She said. " Do what you want with him." She declared. I should have let it go at that and just proceeded to barter my life in exchange for Levin and Krystal's as planned. But no one ever accused me of always sticking to the plan, so I addressed my words to Kane, rather than Aegon as I had planned. " She killed Bailey." I blurted out to the older man, stunning everyone into stillness and silence for a few seconds. Vimon- the witch however was quick to recover. " Ha ha." She cackled. " I see being alone in the dungeon is slowly driving you insane, maybe we should just leave here, would be a pleasure to see you go insane after you took my sister from me." She Said. Ignoring her, I continued to address Kane. " To get her out of the way so she could have

It was a good thing she couldn't shoot beams out of her eyes, because with the glares she had been sending my way for the past quarter of an hour, I would be as charred as the outside of a medium rare steak by now.“Just like I've told you already, I'm not coming down for the celebration or party, whichever it is,” I repeated for the third time in fifteen hours.“But why???” She cried.Finally finished with getting Theo dressed, I pressed my lips to his head in a soft kiss, picked him up and turned to face his grandmother, saying;“ I already told you Vimon.”“ Humor me, tell me again,” she declared, plucking Theo from my arms and smiling at him as he gurgled and kicked his legs in the air.“ First off,” I said in reply, counting off my fingers.“ Theo's the one who's being honored,he doesn

Nico held a big wicker basket and Ingrid held a folded blanket.They were obviously heading out for a picnic, and sure enough they settled under one of the trees with Ingrid spreading out the blanket, and Nico setting down and unpacking the basket to reveal an array of food.It was the third time this week, they did this every other day, they would come out here with more food than two people could possibly eat, sit there talking and eating until it was dark before packing up and going back in.And somehow I always found myself here watching them, of course I told myself I was only keeping an eye on Nico, he had just people he called family and was vulnerable, someone had to keep an eye on him and protect him from Ingrid, she wasn't to be trusted after all and was only trying to get her claws into him in his vulne

    Nico's point of view“ I assume there was no one behind you,” Ingrid cut in.“And you would be right,” I said smiling as I recalled the memory.“She took a boy wearing blood-covered clothes home, introduced him to her husband, sat him at her kitchen table, fixed him a quick meal, then drew him a bath and dug out some old clothes for him to wear,” I continued.“ Years later both she and Levin would tell me that they had known I was coming, some kind of unexplainable feeling when they woke up earlier that morning that made them understand they would have a guest in the cause of the day, and when I showed up, they both recounted feeling an unexplainable urge to take me in and do what they could for me, and they did just that.” “ For the first week, I don't think I did anything but eat and sleep, neither of them asked me any questions, not even my name.”“ They sound like amazing people,” Ingrid said.“ They were,” I assured her.“And they loved me, so much that they were willing to giv
