“A demon uprising?” Leksander growled as he stalked into the throne room.

He and Erelah had conjured clothes and hurried across the keep. Lucian and Leonidas were already near the dais up front, conferring in hushed tones over Lucian’s phone. Erelah strode by his side, once again in that revealing toga of white that she’d worn most of the time he’d known her. The snowy white of her wings brightened the room, fully extended like she expected to take off at any moment and strike out against this apparent demon horde in Seattle.

Lucian and Leonidas stopped their whispering. Both of their eyes had gone wide, but Leonidas spoke first. “So the white wings are back,” he said with a dip of his chin to Erelah. “Good to know.”

“I have True Love of your brother,” she said, like declaring her love for him was as simple and obvious as the weather. “It has banished my shadow side.”

Leonidas just nodded, giving Leksander a pointed look.

Lucian simply looked stunned. “Are you mated?” he choked out.

“Not yet.” Leksander scowled. “I was working on that.”

Erelah gestured to the phone in Lucian’s hand. “What is the meaning of this?”

“I don’t know,” Lucian said, his face still frozen in disbelief. Then he shook his head and focused on the phone, swiping up a video and playing it for them, soundlessly. “There are attacks all over the city. We knew, of course, that the demons were still present. Leonidas and I have been taking turns patrolling and hunting, while you’ve been, well, occupied.”

“But we had no idea this was coming,” Leonidas cut in. “We wouldn’t have interrupted you two—I’d be the last one to stop you from getting busy.” He gave Lucian a pinched look then turned back to face Leksander. “But something is going down here.” He lifted his chin to Erelah. “We could use a legion of angelings right at the moment.”

“She’s going nowhere,” Leksander said, his voice more harsh than he intended. But there was no fucking way he was letting Erelah leave the keep. Not until she was sealed and carrying his child. And then, not until the baby was born. After that… well, his possessiveness might ease in another hundred years. But he’d just gained everything he ever wanted—the world could go literally to hell before he would risk losing her.

“Leksander,” Erelah scolded him. “This is no small infestation.” She snatched the phone from Lucian’s hand and thrust it in Leksander’s face. “Humans are at risk. I must go.”

“No.” It came out with a wisp of dragonfire. He grabbed the phone from her hand and threw it back at Lucian, who awkwardly caught it. The idea of her running around Seattle, hunting demons… it was insane. Not with the shadow realm after her. But he couldn’t stop her, and knowing her, she would go no matter what he said.

“You do not command me, dragon prince.” Her wings stretched wide, and her feathers bristled. There was that stubborn fire in her eyes, the one he loved, but it felt like it might tear him apart.
