Chapter Twenty-six

“Where the hell have you been?” Declan growled into her ear as they rolled beneath a table, his body instinctively cushioning hers from the hard floor. A battle raged above them, with Domnua and Danula clashing swords desperately. Sasha gasped as Bianca flew by and launched herself at the back of a Domnua that had a chokehold on Seamus.

“What – what is going on? What happened?” Sasha asked, pulling away from Declan with the dagger in her hand as she tried to track the flurry of movement that coursed around them.

“It was like you just disappeared. You stepped inside and blinked out of sight. We had nothing to go on – nobody could find you. And then the Domnua slipped through the windows and before you know it, we didn’t have time to look for you. We were too busy trying to fight for our lives. Luckily, just before you reappeared, we were given backup. It was quite literally like a switch was thrown and the Danula dropped from the air to help. I wonder what happened,” Declan said, his breath tickling her ear as he panted, his arm still slung around her as they watched the battle.

Sasha knew what had happened. It was when she’d let go of the old anger and resentment and had decided to just view her parents as people who had done the best they could. She’d viewed it as a valve turning and releasing, but she supposed it could have been flipping a switch.

“You two having a cuddle mid-battle? I’ll remember this next time you make me get out of bed with Bianca early,” Seamus poked his head, upside down, at them beneath the table and shot them a cheeky grin before turning away to stab a Domnua.

“I suppose we should help,” Sasha said, pulling away from Declan’s warmth.

“Wait, where were you? Are you all right, then?” Declan tugged her braid back, making her pause for a moment as she looked into his eyes.

“Aye, I’m just fine. I had to let go of some old stuff. And I’ve got a new clue. Let’s take care of this mess and I’ll fill you all in,” Sasha said, feeling lighter than she had in years. She crawled from beneath the table and leapt into the fray, her dagger sending little jolts of fire through any Domnua that dared to come too close. In a few short moments, they’d finished off the Domnua.

The remaining Danula bowed as one, a purply glow of otherness surrounding them, before they slipped from sight.

“It’s weird that they bowed to us,” Sasha said.

“You’re saving their very world – they had best bow. You’re like a princess,” Bianca panted, then launched herself at a surprised Sasha, wrapping her arms tightly around her waist.

“Hey, it’s fine. I’m alive, see?” Sasha held up her arms, but Bianca held on for a moment longer.

“You gave us a good fright, that’s for sure,” Maddox said, his face filled with annoyance as he wiped silvery blood from his blade.
