I stand up and pull a chair out for him. I set the chair away from both Angel and Cara. I’m not interested in him being too close to my mate either. “Have a seat.” I tell him. I nod at the guards and they go to stand outside the door. “Alpha Liam has told us your story.” Clint says. “It’s all tru
I can’t believe that Liam is willing to let Eli go. I’m even more surprised that Rik agreed as well. But I’m glad. Alessia and I can tell that Eli meant everything that he said today. I’m exhausted after a long day, but my fatigue flies out the window as I watch my mate strip his clothes off for be
I’ve nearly finished my meeting with Jackson when I get a frantic mind link from Dustin. “Alpha, get down here.” He sounds like he’s grunting in pain. “Dustin, what is it?” “Just...get….to….the….kitchen.” He sounds as if he’s barely able to get the words out. I race out of my office and down the
“Has this happened before?” The older one looks at the younger one. Then they turn and nod at me. “Where are your parents?” “Our parents are dead. We’re orphans.” “Who watches over you?” They point to Henry. That ends today. I stand and walk back to Angel. I rub my nose against her ear. “What d
We collected Eli and Dustin and headed into the city. When we arrived, Liam took Eli to a store to get some clothes and a backpack before buying him a bus ticket. “Where do you want to go? The next bus is heading north to Asheville.” “That works.” Eli responds. Liam gives him an envelope with mon
I look at Liam. “He doesn’t know about her history, does he?” I mind link him. He gives a small shake of his head, no. Dustin is in for a long, hard road with Sarah if she can even accept what we are. “What about you?” She turns to look at me. “How did you get away?” “I ran until I fell into Liam
I can’t believe the girl I’ve been searching the entire country for has literally been right under my nose for weeks. I’m thankful that we found her, even if her being mated to Dustin causes complications. It’s at least one thing I can take off my over-full plate of things that need to be done. My
He’s a bloody mess, so I’m shocked when she leaps into his arms, holding him like he’s her lifeline. As he holds her, whispering in her ear to help calm her, I turn to Angel. “Liam.” She says pointing behind me. I turn, expecting another vampire, but it’s George, my human manager. “George.” He wal
Hello everyone, Thank you for taking this journey with me. As many of you may have read, Lily was adamant that I tell her story. And while it took longer in the beginning than I expected, I hope you got to see what a great person she is. Many of you have asked for a continuation of the series and
We watch as Angel and Cara explain the best that they can what Grace did to save the packs. She probably could have done it on her own, but I was concerned for her child. Having whatever strength she pulled from everyone was great, but she wasn’t reserving any for herself. She would have given every
I find Angel and I know that Selene was correct. She has no problem following me and I help her find her way back to Liam. Watching him on the hospital bed, begging for her to return to him, I’m thankful that I could help him and Angel reunite. I know the pain of losing my mate, and I would never wi
At first, when the vampire sank his teeth into my neck, I fought. I probably could have defeated him, even in my disadvantaged state. But then, I realized if I died, I’d be with my Lily bud. I feel my tether to everyone in my life break and I tell Lily I’m coming as everything goes dark. When I ope
“That was a really good idea, Lily bud. I’ve thought of that last night away so many times over the years. I should have known. It wasn’t like you to suddenly be so stressed out. But hindsight is always 20/20, isn’t it?” Clint begins training Angel and Alessia and it’s like he has a renewed purpose
I’ve continued to watch the life of my family. I’ve watched my daughter grow into a beautiful woman. She is not only beautiful on the outside, but she’s also beautiful on the inside. Clint has done such a great job raising her, as I knew he would. And I love that he still talks to me at night, as if
For the next few years, I get into a pattern of training Cara. We train early in the morning, then while she is at school, I work on my upper body strength by building and testing the training facilities I’m building for her. It’s a work in progress, but I feel closer to Lily while I build this for
My Lily bud is always here, watching over me and Cara. It changes things for me. It makes the days easier. I have no intention of letting my mate down, so I begin to plan what needs to happen to train my daughter and make her the strongest Guardian alive. That does give me a moment of pause. Guardi
Cyran runs with Artemis for hours. Andra had gone to follow and watch over them and I joined her, watching as Cyran nipped at Artemis’s heels and played with her. He’s really good with her. When they finally returned, Clint and Liam helped her shift back before Liam headed home. She was so excited
