I landed on my hands and knees, dry heaving as I emptied my stomach of its contents. My nails dug into the grass and soil of Central Park, my vision blurred as tears spilled down my face.

“Let it out, lass,” Alexander cooed. He pulled my hair away from my face, and his hand rubbed soothing circles on my back.

I should have been mortified and disgusted, but I didn’t care at that point. I’d left Jonah in the Fae realm. I hadn’t been strong enough to save him and now…

I vomited again.

“Ranulf,” Alexander grunted. “What happened?”

“They have the Cadwell boy. They must have gotten through the portal at Loch Lomond.”

“That’s nae possible…how could they have gotten into the castle?”

“I’ll find out,” Ranulf promised. “The Queen—she shared her reasons for pursuing control of our realm.”

I could hear the undertone in Ranulf’s voice—a hidden message he was trying to send Alexander.

“All for a stupid man,” I grumbled.

“Ye don’ know the whole story, lass,” the King whispered.

“So tell me!” I turned to him in desperation. “You want the key?” I took it out of my back pocket and threw it at him. “No more secrets! What sins of the past am I paying for?”

Alex’s face contorted and I knew my answer. “We don’ have time for idle chit chat, Mackenzie.” Of course we didn’t.

“If you’re not going to tell me, whatever, but we have to go back!” I cried. “We have to get Jonah!”

Alexander helped me to my feet; he wrapped his arm around me, but I pushed him away. I didn't want sympathy or apologies. I wanted to take action. Drusilla had gone too far.

“What’s going on?” Briggs demanded as he walked down to the shore with Cas trailing behind him.

I ran to Cassidy, gripping the front of his shirt, not caring how I looked or smelled.

“I need your help,” I pleaded. “Jonah—he-he's in the Fae realm, Drusilla has him, we need to get him back.”

“Mackenzie,” Cas held me in place, scanned me from head-to-toe, and then met my eyes. “You need to calm down.”

“No! We need to do something!”

“We cannae,” Ranulf said. “It's what the Queen expects. She's taunting you.”

“Well, it worked,” I sneered. “I don't care how predictable it is, I'm going back for him.”

“Yer nae going anywhere,” Alexander said. “Yer going home and getting rest.”

How could they expect me to go home to do nothing? Did they even know me?

“Princess,” Ranulf approached me. “We'll get him out...just nae right now.”
