CHAPTER TEN

DAPHNE POPPED INTO the living room.

“Got the GPS and the net,” she said. In the one hand, she displayed the small metal square and in the other, what looked like a piece of a knight’s chainmail. “Did you tell them about the curse breaker?”

“I was getting to it,” said Aphrodite.

Daphne handed the GPS to Aphrodite, and then turned to look the two lycanthropes on the couch. Darrius was super hot, but totally into the girl. She’d been Aphrodite’s bitch long enough to know true soulmate love when she saw it.

Daphne studied the marred flesh on Alaya’s face. “You know, those burn scars would look killer with the right tattoos.”

Alaya seemed startled by either the suggestion or Daphne’s boldness. “I never thought of that.”

“If you decide you wanna do it. I gotta a guy. When it comes to tattooing scars, he’s magic.”

“Thanks,” said Alaya.

“You mentioned something about a curse breaker?” asked Darrius. He sounded impatient, and Daphne didn’t blame him. The true love curse was one of Nemesis’s more heinous creations.

“There is an ancient ritual that can bind two souls together,” said Aphrodite. “If you survive it, the curse will be broken, and you’ll be together until the end of your days.”

Darrius and Alaya stared at Aphrodite.

“You’re probably wondering about that surviving bit, aren’t you?” Daphne sat on the edge of her boss’s chair. “It’s not a particularly complicated ritual, but it’s risky. And it requires the use of Nemesis’s sword.

“It’s blood magic—the most powerful kind. You must both use the blade to cut your palms. Then you hold hands and repeat a single incantation. If your love is true and equal, you will bind heart and soul. And Nemesis can suck it.” Daphne raised her hands in universal rock ’n roll gestures.

Alaya frowned. “You haven’t told us the bad part yet.”

“You both have to love each other completely and irrevocably,” warned Aphrodite. “If your love isn’t equal in nature, the one who loves more will die. The one who loves less will live.”

“That’s the shitty part about using Nemesis’s sword. It’s imbued with that whole justice/wrath/balance vibe.” Daphne sent the lycans sympathetic looks.

Darrius gazed at Alaya. “I would rather die than forget even a second of our time together.”

“I won’t live without you.” Alaya cupped his cheek. “I will never lose faith again, my love.”

Darrius kissed her.

“Well, that answers that question,” said Daphne. “All we have to do now is trap Nemesis and steal her sword.”

“No problem,” said Aphrodite. “The GPS says she’s still in town—at some place called Beautiful Beaux.”

“Beautiful Beaux is a male strip club on the pier,” said Alaya. “Why would she go there?”

“Because it’s a male strip club,” said Daphne. “She’s the goddess of wrath. She’s not dead.”
