Chapter Twelve
I look down at my sleeping sons and smile. Tonight the twins are sleeping with me. I needed to be close to them. I really needed to be close to Lilly, but this is the next best thing.
Her absence has truly been felt, and not just by me. The mood around the training camps are somber. Everyone is working hard with determination to end this fucking war just to get Lilly back. Even the crazy Familiar is being affected. Just this morning she nearly chewed the face off one of the elves brought in to watch the twins. Avalia had to lock her up. The little ferret refuses to speak to anyone about why she attacked the maid. Locking the familiar up is about the only thing Avalia and I have agreed upon lately.
Since she found out about Drago, there has been a distance growing between us. It is the first time that she and I have not been in agreement with each other. The tension between the two of us is felt amongst everyone. She’s angry with my decision to involve Drago. An especially angry that I did not inform her of my plans before I made them. Despite my fear of her impending death, I cannot make this right with her. I cannot give her an apology because if I had to do it over again I would still make the same decision. She nor I will ever understand the type of horrors that Lilly will face in that kingdom. I know my little human is strong, but no one can survive time with a mad man.
At least I can say that we have some good news. The females from the Eastern Kingdom showed up early this morning and they are everything Lilly promised they would be. We actually look like an army now. Too fucking bad we can’t get into the Northern Kingdom. No matter what we do, it seems like we can’t get ahead.
My oldest son grunts in his sleep, and I turn to look at him. The twins are my reason to keep going. The longer I am away from their mother, the closer to madness I become. I listen to their breathing as I turn to stare at the table beside my bed. My eyes scan over the little butterfly picture in its silver frame and the silver coin sitting beside it. I had no intentions of actually falling asleep, but before I know it I am being pulled into a walking dream.
What the fuck?
I am in a massive room. Dark woods and dark fabrics greet me. A huge bed is in the middle of the room with a floor to ceiling headboard. The room looks masculine and entirely to fucking gloomy for my taste. So who brought me here?
It’s then that I notice the small figure lying in the bed under a blood red blanket.
I rush to the side of the bed. I will know that figure and smell anywhere.
“Lilly?” I call out to my love.
