Chapter Twenty-One

“Wait!” I flung the carriage door open. “Son of a selkie! I can't go back to Aithinne with you. I gotta return to the God Realm.”

“Oh... right,” Arach sighed.

“You naughty dragon,” I wagged my finger at him. “You thought I'd forget.”

“You did forget,” he smirked.

“Briefly,” I grimaced, “because of Lugh.”

“Um, what did the High Prince say to you, My Queen?” Isleen asked casually.

“No,” I shook my head, “not now. I gotta get back. Wait here for me, I'll just be a few seconds. Then we can talk.”

“Yes, Queen Vervain.”

“Bye, baby,” I kissed Arach quickly, and then kissed my boys. “Bye, other baby... and bye, other baby.”

Then I jumped out and rushed back to the Great Tree. The bark vibrated with magic beneath my palm. It condensed, seeping out over my hand, and then my whole body. I mentally asked the Aether to take me to Pride Palace, directing my path with an entry chant. The energy grabbed a hold of me and pulled me through, turning me briefly into pure thought. I reformed in Pride Palace's tracing chamber with just the barest hint of blue sparks marking my passage. Voices echoed out of the dining hall as I stepped from the room, so I headed in that direction.

“Well it's about time,” Horus rolled his eyes.

“Vervain,” Trevor came over to kiss me. “Thank goodness you're back. Why did it take so long?”

“The Light Elves wanted to wine and dine us,” I grimaced.

“Us?” Kirill asked as he kissed my other cheek.

“Arach went with me.”

An understanding murmur circled among the God Squad and my Intare. I scowled as I noted the assemblage, then absently kissed Odin hello.

“What's going on?” I asked as Az swooped in for his kiss. There was always a lot of kissing after a significant absence.

“My father sent us a video,” Trevor growled. “There's been another incident.”

“And you gathered everyone together to see it?” I lifted my brows.

“We needed all the eyes we could get,” Odin explained. “We hoped someone would recognize the criminals.”

“So we got their faces on camera?” I asked in surprise.

“Yeah, ve got zem,” Kirill grimaced.

“What the hell?” I looked around at all the angry and annoyed expressions. “Who are they?”

“Take a look,” Trevor led me to a seat, and angled a laptop in front of me.

There was a frozen video on it. A shadowy clothing shop; racks of merchandise, cash register, and a display window on the left. Trevor hit play. Glass sprayed as something crashed through the window. A brick maybe. Then someone cleared the glass remnants with a crowbar. Three men stepped through the opening and proceeded to destroy the shop.

“They look human,” I said. “Asian? It's hard to tell with it being so dark.”

“Apparently,” Trevor stared at the screen with narrowed eyes. “Do they look familiar in any way?”

“Well, the ski masks kinda prevent recognition,” I grimaced. “But those eyes are definitely some kind of Asian,” I paused the video and zoomed in on the clearest face. “Japanese, I believe.”

“Not bad,” Horus huffed.
