Anders was at his wits’ end. He’d fully hoped that either he’d be able to figure out who tried to take him out, or Hadlee’s spell would work. But here he was, pacing outside on the terrace at one a.m., trying to solve the riddle. Just who in the hell wanted him dead?

He could be thankful that no one had taken any shots at him or Hadlee during the party, but he doubted that whoever had sights on the nest leadership was going to give up after one failed attempt. He simply couldn’t figure it out. First, how had he even gotten poisoned? He’d made a sandwich for himself for lunch but hadn’t eaten any dinner. His mom hadn’t been poisoned, so it was doubtful that the food in his fridge was the culprit. He didn’t remember getting shot by anything before he lost his ability to hold his shift, so that ruled out a sniper situation.

So how in the hell had it happened? How had he nearly died during a hunt, not only poisoned but also cursed?

“Hey,” Hadlee said softly.

He turned to see her wrapped up in one of the blankets, her hair mussed, looking sleepy.

Moving to her, he put his arms around her and drew her close, inhaling her sweetness. “Did I wake you?”

“No, I rolled over and the bed was empty. Are you okay?”

“Frustrated.”

“I’m sorry that my spell didn’t work. I was so sure it would.”

“It’s not your fault.”

She sighed and rested her head on his chest. He looked past her into the dark bedroom. He could see the glint of Osiris’ eyes as he stared at them from his little bed. “I will get to the bottom of it, I promise.”

“I know you will.” She leaned back and went onto her toes to kiss him. “Just remember that you’re not alone, you’ve got me.”

He smiled. “I’m so thankful for that.”

“Do you want some company?”

“You can go back to sleep. I’m going to pace some more.”

She nodded and gave him another kiss, then returned to the bed. He turned and leaned against the railing, staring out over the water. The moonlight danced on the waves and glittered like diamonds. He’d always found it peaceful to listen to the waves at night, but all he could hear now was his brain’s wheels spinning, trying to figure out who wanted him dead. Never having faced this sort of backlash in his life before, he wasn’t really sure what to do, except hope he figured it out before the culprit took another shot at him.

Or Hadlee.

He thought about how she’d asked him to see the law books because she’d been thinking about succession and he’d gone to the library with her. He’d read the books as a youngster because that’s what future kings did. He couldn’t lead if he didn’t know what the laws were. They’d confirmed what he’d known to be the truth: succession went from father to son. Right now, he didn’t have an heir, which meant that the kingship would go to someone in his family line.
