Matoskah paced the living room of Robert’s house. Brent watched him with a steely gaze. Yeah, he couldn’t really blame him, considering the fact he’d kept secrets, knowing full well Brent would want to know.

He didn’t have a good excuse other than he thought he was doing the right thing. That the Branches had always kept secrets. As much as it sucked, at least things were changing.

Why the hell hadn’t Mina wanted Brent to know more? The man might have been able to find a way to stop Thanatos sooner, or at the very least prevent him from hunting more women until Jacinda was strong enough to stop him herself.

And now it may be too late to fix things with Chatan. All for damned promises he wished he had never made.

Brent squeezed his hands shut and released them. “So, Scathane, and we’re sure that’s who possessed Thanatos?”

Ceridwen took the book from Brent and sighed. “Yes. And I wish I had realized sooner.”

“Would you have been able to stop him?”

She shook her head. “Not without Dove’s help. And I fear Jacinda was the only one who could free her. But we could have done more to protect her family if I had any damned cue what we were dealing with.”

Brent pinched the bridge of his nose. “Are you able to track him?”

“Unfortunately, no. I didn’t personally know him. I don’t believe I ever came into contact with him, and because I have never encountered Thanatos. If I had realized Scathane had warped Thanatos, I would have searched harder. He was the leader of the shadow mystics. The ones who have found their way here have been searching for him. Perhaps whatever bound Thanatos to the in between was a blessing.”

Savon shifted her weight. “So, let me get this straight. Jacinda is supposed to be Dove’s guardian, and Chatan, Hawk’s? Does that mean they’ll be carrying their spirits? They’d be possessed? We don’t want that, right?”

Ceridwen shook her head and smiled. “No, and they won’t be possessed. Dove and Hawk will pass on their magic, their memories, but what Jacinda and Chatan do with that is up to them. Dove and Hawk will move on from this world.”

“How can you be sure?” Savon asked.

“Their goal has always been to protect the world we live in from those who would destroy it. They wouldn’t become the enemy.”

“I hope you’re right,” Brent snapped.

Matoskah held up his hands. “There’s a prophecy, or rather a promise, made by Dove and Hawk, that once they found someone to take on the mantle, they would move on to the afterlife, whatever that might be.”

“You don’t know what the afterlife is?” Brent asked.

“It’s different for everyone,” Ceridwen answered.

“But you’re sure Hawk and Dove won’t take them over?” Brent demanded.

“Positive,” Ceridwen answered. “And if they did, you and Savon could fix that. That won’t be necessary, though.”

“I hope you’re right. They need to know the risks, though,” Brent added.

“They do. And I fully expect you to tell them both everything.
