Outside the Jet's POV: “When should he be expecting your invitation?” Trista asked excitedly. “It should be no more than a few days’ time. We have offered to help the werewolves on this personal mission, to show our gratitude for them welcoming us into their pack land despite us entering without notifying them in advance.” Taji said, trying to end the conversation so the women would leave. “Oh well in that case we could help too. This will show your grandmother that we are serious about the treaty and could also help me and her bond before we’re joined. I know it will be tough handing over the crown to me after having filled the role of queen for so long.” Trista said, thoughtfully. “No, I don’t think this is the time to try and bond with my grandmother. This is not a Fae mission, I can’t just invite more people.” Taji said, as he looked back as everyone started to leave the Jet and get into the awaiting SUV’s. “Look I need to go we’re are already running behind, plea

The car ride: Taji set across from Lucky staring intently at her. He didn’t care who saw him, he just wanted her to look at him at least once. She has been talking to everyone, but haven’t even glanced in his direction. Everyone noticed the tension, even Mina didn’t say anything. Tired of the awkward silence, “so King, who were those women? They don’t look like you or your grandmother? Should we be watching our backs? I know your grandmother lied about what that report was about, I can only guess it was something about Lucky and Charms. Since she made it clear from the start leprechauns and the Faes were enemies.” Lynn asked, looking in Taji direction. He didn’t want to get into that question, because he knew whatever answer he gave wouldn't be good enough. Even though he knew why his grandmother did it, he just wish she had talked to him beforehand. Turning to look Lynn directly in the eyes. “They were the Dark Fae; my grandmother asked for a historical back

Ten minutes until the Mission: The car ride: “Alpha I need to speak with you, it’s something urgent.” Shadow said, via mind link. “What is it?” The alpha answered back immediately. “It’s Scarlett she mind linked me just now. She said she is being held somewhere. I tried to get her location, but she’s blindfolded. She doesn’t know her location and I can’t pinpoint it either; I have tried. There must be some kind of spell blocking the connection or she is just too far away.” Shadow said, in a rush. “Shadow, I know you don't want to, but this is a conversation that must be done vocally. I will not hide anything from my mate or her family.” Alpha Makahi said, via mind link. Shadow knew he would say that he just wanted to avoid the women's reaction to hearing Scarlett's name. Getting attacked by the women regarding Scarlett wasn't something he wanted to endure right now. He knows they don’t like her and don’t mind making it known, but they just didn’t understand how the mate bo

The Vampire Queen and her warriors: Heading to the Sterling building: “WHAT THE HELL HAPPEN TO YOUR TEAM AT THE AIR STRIP? YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO CUT THEIR NUMBERS DOWN, SO WE WOULD HAVE THE ADVANTAGE WHEN WE ATTACKED THEM!” The Vampire Queen yelled at her vampire soldier. He had come back badly beaten and missing both his hands. “I’m sorry my queen we were attacked. They came from out of nowhere, we didn’t even see them until it was too late. I was barely about to blur out of there, I have never seen anything like them before.” The vampire struggle to say, slurring his words because of the amount of blood he was losing. He was basically useless without hands he wouldn't be able to feed without his hands. “Are they working with the werewolves?” “I don’t think so because they didn’t even go near the jet the werewolves were in. We thought so at first but once they disappeared from view. We didn’t see them again until they were upon us.” The vampire soldier said. The

Manhattan New York: Public parking garage’s POV: Alpha Makahi, Ji’lahni, Mina, Lynn, and Lucky: “Um, please tell me we not going in that building. That building looks like a fortress with armed guards at every exit, and looks like it has a hundred floors.” Ji’lahni said looking at the Sterling building as the passed by. They wanted to get a glimpse of the building from the outside. Only one SUV was going to be across the street from the building. Charms needed to be near the building, which was the only way she would be able to hack into their systems. They even gave her an earpiece, which made her even more of a boss chick. They decided that it would be safer to get earpieces for everyone, since their mates couldn’t mind link. They needed a way to keep in contact with them and the rest of the team. “Yall see that building is made up of mostly glass. I bet it's the kind where we can’t see in but they can see out. I bet they have those laser alarms all over the
