By the time anyone spoke again, the sickly green light had faded from the sky, a blanket of clouds sweeping in and blotting out the stars.

I hoped it wasn’t the weather witches.

Sluggishly, I dragged myself back to my feet. Brushed the dirt from my ass. Twisted my messy hair into a knot on top of my head.

It didn’t matter if grief had swallowed up my heart. I still had to learn how to fight. Still had to try, if only for the men who still lived. The men who loved me as much as I loved them.

I looked at Hudson, my fierce gargoyle warrior. At Jax, my unrelenting, unstoppable demon.

And I thought of Evander. My warlord. My dark fae.

For them, I could do this. I could fight.

“Again,” I told Jax, shaking off the haze of my grief. “Let’s go.”

He and Hudson stood up and exchanged a glance—one I couldn’t quite translate.

“You sure about this, babygirl?” Hudson asked, his eyes glued to Jax.

I nodded. “I’m good. Definitely. Let’s do this.”

Uncertainty flickered through the mate bond, a low rumble of concern humming in his chest.

“I’ve got her,” Jax said to Hudson as he made a show of rolling his neck and cracking every one of his knuckles like some kind of prize fighter. “We’re gonna try a new tactic. See if the change-up can inspire a comeback for our feisty little witch.”

“Go,” I told my gargoyle, rolling my eyes at the demon’s theatrics. “I’ll be fine. I promise.”

Hudson finally relented, and after a quick kiss on my forehead, he was gone, off to scout ahead for the location of our next camp.

When I turned my attention back to Jax, he was grinning at me—the old wolf’s grin that had tied my stomach in knots from that very first night at Saints and Sinners. The one that’d sent chills skittering down my spine and set my heart thundering, just like it was right now.

So my heart hasn’t evaporated, then. Good to know…

After another beat, the smile fell from his face. And in its place came a look so deadly, so primal, adrenaline flooded my limbs and every hair on my arms stood on end.

Jax folded his arms over his chest, narrowed his eye, and issued a single, bone-chilling command. “Run.”
