Chapter 18

I expected Talan to follow me from his house—he had that pleading look in his eyes. But he didn’t. What stayed with me all these months was his unfaithfulness. He’d left me feeling as if I was worthless and our relationship had been a delusion. The dickhead tricked me into believing we had a future, and that stung.

Rushing down the side of the townhouse and passing an oversized hedge flanking the driveway, I whispered, “Axel?” I poked into the bushes and scanned the street. Where was he?

I never should have left him alone, trusted him, or thought his kiss meant anything but me lowering my guard. I tensed and marched away, glancing up and down the neighborhood for any sign of him. Yep, the biggest idiot award goes to Luna!

So what now? After the insight I’d gained from Talan, our situation was screwed. With Princess Kutia in a trance and not waking, she was a sitting target for the vulsines. Sure, the council leaders would guarantee high security, but what if Axel was the binding partner of a council member? Letting the vulsines get hold of him would mean they could use his blood to track down the leaders. And the leaders were the only ones with the ability to resurrect the princess. Otherwise, both faes and humans were headed for mass extinction. Yeah, nothing like having the world on my shoulders. But it meant we didn’t have time to waste.

Maybe I should accept Talan’s help to find Axel.

When I spun toward the townhouse, someone walked into my path. I jerked backward only to find Axel chuckling. The sun lit up his blue eyes, and damn he was sexy when he smiled.

“Ha, you thought I ditched you.”

I punched him in the arm though a bucket load of relief flooded me. “Don’t pull that shit again, understand?”

Axel nudged me. “Shall we get moving, or you want to continue sulking?”

“Okay, let me catch you up on a few things. And promise not to freak.”

He cut me a skeptical stare. Once we left behind the residential streets and re-entered the forest, I summarized my conversation with Talan.

Axel stopped near a closed corner store, drawing me beneath an awning, his eyes wide, crammed with terror. “You’re mistaken.”

“Maybe, but there’s only one way to find out. What other leads do we have?” I took the scrunched-up piece of paper from my pocket and unfolded the note with the broker’s address. Under normal circumstances, I’d laugh off Talan’s lead on the human who identified someone’s match. But considering vulsines had appeared in our world, I wasn’t so quick to dismiss possibilities.

“Anything that sounds too good to be true usually ends up trying to kill me,” Axel said.

“What if the PPD have information we don’t?” I smirked, not sure I believed the broker had such an ability, but something in my gut told me to follow this plan. “Anyway, what’s the harm in asking the guy for help? And if for once, the universe goes in
