“But we still don’t know where Lila is,” I said impatiently. Max wasn’t going to remain calm for long; he was on the edge again, wanting to get back to Higala to search for our mate and I was about ready to forfeit my control over to him. Selene was still staring at Xander with an expression I cou

Lila’s POV I don’t remember when I fell asleep, but when I woke up, I saw a familiar face standing on the other side of the cell. Jazzy stood in front of me with her arms folded across her chest. She was staring at me like she was examining a science project. The healer, Dr. Hannah Laureen stood

We could have been in some kind of forest. There was machinery crowding some areas, but I couldn’t tell what they were for. I breathed in the musky scent of the warehouse but nearly gagged at the rotten smell. Was that old meat? It smelled like meat that’s been sitting and rotting. Maybe this

We stood there, waiting for Selene to return with Hazel. She had to permit Xander to enter the barrier. Standing beside him felt awkward to me because this was a guy, I had spent a lot of time torturing. It felt unnatural that he was on our side now, but I was grateful that he wasn’t working again

Enzos POV Hazel walked across her small kitchen and rummaged through her cabinet until she found a wooden bowl. She returned to the table and placed it in the center before going to the other side of her kitchen and rummaging through some drawers until she uncovered a bag of coffee grinds. She g

“I think they are planning on draining this Volana of all her blood and having that other girl consume it,” the other rogue said, shrugging. “Something like that.” “What is the point of creating another Volana?” The other one muttered. “Doesn’t that defeat the purpose?” “Something about creating
