"Slow down there Hellhound. These are memories her parents wanted erased. She was so young they didn't want her to have to live with them. Some she herself asked for them to be erased. These are things that her parents or she felt that she didn't need or want to know. For one reason or another.""Let me guess. They had you do it.""Yes. I sworn my life to protect the females of the royal Fae line. It started with Illianna. Then she had me swear my loyalty and life to guard, Yanessa. Nothing prepared me for the overwhelming pride, joy, and love that filled me the day the twins were born. Then I learned that Remi was still born. My heart broke. I stood with Yanessa and Kieran the day she took her first breath. And I swore to them that I would be there for the twins till they took their last breath. It killed me the night Romie was murdered. I knew then there was nothing I wouldn't do for Remi. I was willing to double down on my protection, guidance and loyalty. No matter what it costs m

"The first time I left was the night you were attacked. I watched as the first wave attacked the house. Michael begged me to leave the falls. To go and find my peace. I begged to go to you and mom. I begged him to help me find a way to save you two. He said somethings have to play out. That fate has a plan for everyone. When the first strike hit mom I cried and begged to go. Michael told me there were no sad tears in heaven. Then shoved me into the pool of water. When I swam to the top; I was no longer at the looking falls. I was with dad and Gunner in the backseat. Gunner stepped on the gas and I flew backwards. I ended up next to mom. I got to hold her hand as she took her last breath. When you were thrown into the room; I jumped up trying to free Blaze. But my hands kept passing through the rods holding him. I roared towards the heavens for Michael to help me help you. He landed next to me; his pearly silver tipped wings spread so wide I couldn't see you. I could hear you screaming

An angel I've seen a few times visit with my Uncle Gabriel lands behind Romeo. "Time's up.""Give me one more minute. Please Michael. Then I promise I'll go." Michael nods his head stepping back."I've gotta go. Before I go. I want you to know. I love you, sissy. I was born your guardian angel. I died your guardian angel. I will forever be your guardian angel. Whenever you feel me; it's me giving you a guiding nudge in one direction or the other. I'll always be at the looking falls watching over you. I want you to live a life full of happy loving moments. I want you to mend fences with our family. Take Kallista under you wing. She's gonna need a big sister to guide her. No more guilt over me or mom. No more sorrow for what can't be changed. We both love you. We both gave our lives willingly. We will see each other again one day. Until then go enjoy yourself. You deserve it."We touch our hands to the barrier. Romeo steps back spreading his wings then rockets up into the sky. "Miss m

I unwrap myself from Aiden and climb out of the bed. I stretch out my limbs. Popping my neck, hands, and fingers. I push my hands against my lower back stretching. A loud cracking noise echoes in the room. "Damn! That was your back. You got a spine left?" Aiden laughs, but quickly stops when Doc enters the room. Once he has checked over Aiden and given him the all clear he looks my way. "Remi, if you will follow me please.""See you soon, A!" I toss over my shoulder as I follow the doctor out of the room. The hallway I follow Doc down; is lined with me and Aiden's family and friends. "What's wrong?" My father asks taking a few steps to follow us. "Nothing. Just need to have a chat with my patient." My father continues to follow us. I'm not surprised when Doc has to give him the whole speech about privacy and patient confidentiality. My father hasn't let me out of his sight since I woke up. "It's fine. Go check on Aiden for me; will ya." I shoo him away and give him a little push

"For what? Telling the fucking truth! You weren't mated a full day and you came home broken hearted and...." My hand flies up halting whatever was about to come out of his mouth. "Remi, it's okay. We know it's true." Aiden says trying to defuse the ticking bomb inside of me. "What happened to me wasn't your fault! And it wasn't mine either! I didn't take a drink from a stranger or anyone other than my staff. As for the other bullshit. That's all it was. My bullshit! My fucking issues and inability to control my anger. Now apologize!" I scream so loud the glass in the double doors to the backyard cracks. "Like hell I will. You. Are. Coming. Home. End of discussion. There will be a meeting at which time Aiden and his father will join us." My father shouts. "I'm not leaving Remi's side!" Aiden yells. Blaze and Gunner stand at the ready to get between them. "I think we can all agree you had no trouble leaving your mate alone for what has it been since you two consummate your mating?
