Henry’s POVThe meeting with Henry’s recent client seemed to be going on forever.She was a middle-aged woman, human, with fair skin and curly blonde hair. She sat across the table with tear-filled eyes, wiping them with a white handkerchief.They’ve been going back and forth over the recent settlement she received from her soon-to-be ex-husband, but it doesn’t seem to be enough for her. It was obvious to both Henry and the judge that she had only married this man for his fortune and now that she was getting divorced, she was trying to milk every penny out of him. He had agreed to pay a certain settlement, something Henry had agreed upon with him directly, but it seems his client is reluctant to take the money knowing that there is a chance that she could get more.“Ms. Conrad—”“Judy,” she clarified. “I would prefer if you’d call me Judy.”She didn’t want to be called by her maiden name or her married name.“Judy,” Henry corrected. “This is a large sum of money that he is offering y

Henry’s POV By the time Henry got to the forest and spotted Erin, it was too late. Gavin was already there. There was a jealous feeling in the pit of Henry’s stomach as he watched Gavin kneeling over Erin’s unconscious body. It was obvious from where Henry was standing that she was stabbed with a silver dagger. She wouldn’t have much longer to live unless Gavin was able to heal her. Gavin was incredibly powerful from what Henry knew about him so there was no telling what kind of powers he really had. Henry wasn’t surprised when he saw the glowing of Gavin’s hands as he pressed the palms into Erin’s chest. He watched in amazement, and from afar, as Erin’s wound began to heal, and a large wound appeared on Gavin’s chest. He was transferring the damage done to Erin to himself. Could Gavin die because of this? Erin’s breathing grew stronger, and she made a soft moaning sound through her parted lips. Gavin gently placed her back on the ground before he fell to the ground himself an

Erin’s POV I can’t remember the last time Theo was in our realm. He’s spent so much time in the Moonshadow realm that he created. I should have known the moment I felt that strange sensation upon entering my home that something was wrong. Theo had come through his portal and was sitting on my bed. He looked at me with such fury that it brought a chill to my spine. I didn’t like it when Theo was mad; whenever he was mad, bad things happened. I deliberately went against his wishes and because of that, there was going to be hell to pay. Henry stayed by my side though; he had a hold on my hand, and I knew he wasn’t planning on letting me go, despite the wrath of Theo. Theo was quiet for a long moment like Henry, and I stared at him from the doorway. He kept his eyes locked on mine; they were dark and deadly. I wondered what he was thinking at that moment. I wondered if I even wanted to know. Even Emily was growing nervous about Theo’s presence. I watched in my mind’s eye as she

    Gavin’s POV “Were you ever going to tell me that Erin is back in your life?” Tyler asked, following Gavin to his office across the packhouse. “There’s nothing to tell, she’s married,” Gavin muttered. He knew that her marriage wasn’t real, but he wasn’t sure what else to say to Tyler. It was clear that Erin had made her decision and her decision was not Gavin. As much as that hurt him to realize, he had something much bigger to worry about. He stared down at the picture that Tyler had presented to him. Somebody from the Slayer organization had given it to him to give to Gavin. They were cowardly and didn’t want to face Gavin themselves, so they sent the only person that Gavin truly trusted to do it for them. “I have to be honest,” Tyler said, sitting across from Gavin’s desk in a chair. “I was surprised when I saw a vampire standing at my door. My first instinct was to fight. But he didn’t

    Gavin’s POV “We are in the process of relocating your parents as we speak, Alpha. Do you want us to send you, their location?” One of the gammas asked in a mindlink. “No,” Gavin answered, and it pained him to do so. “It would be better if I didn’t know where they were. The least I know, the better.” “Are you sure? They have been requesting to speak with you.” “Tell them it’s for their own protection,” Gavin ordered. “Yes, Alpha,” the gamma said before ending the mindlink. Gavin sat at his desk, rubbing his temples with his pointer finger and thumb. The picture that was sent to him remained on his desk. Now the Slayers were after his family, and he had no idea what he was going to do to stop them. It would have been nearly impossible to stop them if the vessels couldn’t be detected and stopped. He had already tried to stop two of the vessels and that didn’t work. Speaking of
