As I continued hurling spears and daggers into red, glowing, eyes, a thought occurred to me; how am I going to do this when daylight hits in just a few hours? I’m not going to be able to see glowing eyes. I went to the kitchen and grabbed a blackberry muffin for some instant energy. I sat at the table, eating my muffin and contemplating life when Billy sat next to me, “How are you holding up, little one?” I chuckled, “About as well as can be expected for a broken warrior.” Billy asked, “Why are you broken?” I explained, “I thought killing Dune would stop my night terrors and flashbacks, but I just added to it. Now I keep hearing him ask why I didn’t just let him mark me.” Billy sighed, “I can’t say I understand how you feel, but I do know that Dark Warlocks are sadistic beasts. They do everything they can to cause as much terror, pain and anguish as possible. What you are doing right now is exactly what they were aiming for.” I sighed, “I know you’re right, but it’s so hard not to play

I smiled, “Sweet! It’s working! So, does anyone know how the spell stopped working to begin with?” Billy replied, “They found a small opening in the shield just outside Bridget’s room. The spell was cast years ago, so it was bound to weaken at some point. We just simply didn’t realize how long ago it was. You kids weren’t even a thought yet when that spell was cast, so it was time. It’s even stronger this time because Winnie had some help.” I smiled, “Ya’ll are awesome! But I still think we are going to sleep on the sectional until this thing is over. It might reduce my nightmares, and Bridget shouldn’t be climbing those stairs until her concussion is better.” Bridget started to get up, “I’m fine. I just have a small headache.” She stood up and got dizzy. I jumped up, “No, you are not fine. You need to take it easy.” I walked to the kitchen thinking that I should make some chicken soup for Bridget. When I got there, I found Grandma Abby already working on it. I hugged her, “You read

Adele POV I slapped myself in the forehead and groaned, “Zach, please come meet my mate, Sebastian Renault.” Zach smiled widely while I whispered, “Oh no! Get ready. They’re about to get embarrassing.” I heard Sebastian chuckle lowly as Zach opened the back door of the house and yelled at the top of his lungs, “Guys! Adele found her mate!” I buried my face in his chest, “Oh shit. Brace yourself.” Suddenly, a flood of people ran toward us. All three of my brothers, my parents, all of my grandparents, plus all the supernatural leaders who were in the house. Sebastian’s eyes went wide, “Oh shit.” I laughed, “I warned you.” I stood in front of Sebastian and spread my arms wide, “WAIT!” Everyone skidded to a halt and I smiled, “Okay, everyone, this is my mate, Sebastian. I need each of you to introduce yourself with just your name and relationship to me. That’s it. I do not want to overload him with information. Plus, we still have dark warlocks out there.” Sebastian leaned down to get clo

Sebastian POV My mate could not be more perfect. I know she has some scars that desperately need to be healed, and we will work on those. For now, we need to get rid of all these dark warlocks trying to take what is mine. I stepped away from everyone and called my dad. He’s kind of an asshole, but I know he loves me. My dad answered on the second ring, “Hey son, how’s it going?” I smiled at his cheery greeting, “It’s been an eventful morning, dad.” He asked, “What’s going on?” I chuckled, “Well, I have found my mate.” I heard a click and dad asked me to repeat myself. I repeated, “I found my mate this morning.” I heard my mom, “Oh. My. GODDESS!!! You have to tell us all about her, son! I’m so happy for you!” I laughed, “Well, her name is Adele, she is a princess of both the Werebear and Lycan kingdoms, she is a kickass fighter, an amazing cook and she needs our help.” Dad asked, “That last part was a bit of a surprise. What is going on?” I explained, “Long story short, there is a cove

Sebastian sat down next to me and wrapped me in his arms. He put his nose in my neck, inhaling my scent to calm his tiger, “Love, I could never reject you. I was growling because of what happened to you. Carrie explained to me how severe your trauma was. You downplayed it for my benefit, didn’t you?” I nodded slightly as I looked down at the floor. He raised my chin with one finger and looked me in the eyes, “Don’t do that. I want to know everything about you. Nothing about you is minor to me. Everything is important. Okay?” I nodded, “Okay, but that is honestly the worst of me. There were times, while I was growing up, when kids at school would try to bully me, but I always stopped it really quickly by kicking their asses once and they didn’t try it anymore. The guy who kidnapped me, Dune, was one of them. My brothers got ahold of him, and then got him kicked out of our school for good. That was when we were only five or six. I never thought he would keep me in mind all those years wi
