They couldn’t believe their eyes. “Channing?”It had been years since they’d last seen him, both having last seen him on the day he died. “You look good Your Highnesses.”Nathan chuckled at the jab. “How is this possible? I thought you couldn’t reach out to us anymore?”“It’s not that I can’t. I stopped reaching out to Cally and Killian because they weren’t going to let go of me if I let them hold on,” Channing explained.“So, you’ve been around the whole time?” Cassidy asked as they walked closer to him.“Pretty much,” Channing confirmed.Cassidy closed the gap, tears running down her face as she finally hugged him. She knew it was the pendant’s doing, and she was appreciative of the opportunity to get to do what she couldn’t on his last day.“I’m so sorry Channing. I should’ve done more to protect you that day,” she sniffed.He pulled back to wipe away her tears. “Everything worked out the way it was meant to Cass. I was meant to die that day. I don’t want to have to do the whole th

At the sound of the growl, Killian clutched his head as he was pulled into a vision. He was surrounded by darkness at first, until he heard voices. He couldn’t make them out, and the darkness slowly dissipated, but he still couldn’t quite see around him.However, the voices became clearer.“He will attack us and you know it,” one of the voices stated.“I know that he will, but that doesn’t mean we should attack him first. His father failed in taking us out, so why would he succeed?” another voice spoke.“You say that, but I’m telling you that there’s something different about him, about his tactics. He almost wiped out our surveillance team and you’re simply treating him like he’s nothing,” the first voice said.“We have the favour of the Higher Powers. He will not succeed,” the second voice insisted.“I won’t be around when shit hits the fan because I’ve warned you, and you’re choosing not to listen to me. You’ve got Isaac on your side as well, and I’m telling you that he will succee

Everyone was waiting on Calypso, Killian, and Logan to return, when Zen remembered what Tallulah had told them about his being alive. He didn’t want to talk to him in front of everyone else, so he requested to see him in another room.Vera naturally followed, trusting that her mate would want her there, and he closed the door after she walked into the room. “What is this about?”“You’re not giving us any updates about what’s happening in the castle,” Zen told him.Frazier raised an eyebrow. “What happened to trusting me?”“I trust you, but apparently I’m dead,” Zen jabbed.Frazier scowled. “How did you find out about that?”“Tallulah, the Lycan we rescued, she was quite surprised to find out that I’m not,” Zen informed.Frazier was genuinely taken aback. “I didn’t expect you to find out, much less so soon.”“Wait, so that’s the word around? That I’m dead?” Zen asked.“We’re trying to smoke Odus out. While I’ve tried to find out any information from the castle, no one knows anything. N

Even though he had strength and speed, she was faster than him, which is why it took Killian two minutes to arrive just as the creatures scurried away, leaving the dead Lycan bodies behind.He looked to his mate, who was still transformed, and she was unmoving. He tried to link her to find himself shut out. He approached her, only for her to growl lowly. She still hadn’t turned to face him, so he wasn’t sure why she was growling.And then she turned to face him.He’d seen her eyes briefly back at the scene of the attack, but now they were staring back at him fully. He was able to see that they were a light purple, with a blue ring around them. He watched as slowly her fur started to change back to gold, before her eyes turned completely blue.He was still shut out from their link, so he waited for her to be the one to initiate any kind of communication. Instead, she stood where she was, no longer growling. He couldn’t decipher the look in her eyes, and he wouldn’t admit to anyone else

The different leaders who were present and had been impressed with Nathan and Cassidy found themselves annoyed as they awaited the royal couple. They had been informed that the couple had stepped out and would attend to them as soon as they returned.Garrett and Penelope found themselves running things together with Wayne. They tried to keep everyone as comfortable as possible, but even they understood that the different leaders and monarchs’ patience could only last so long.Remi had left to go and check up on the pack. With him and Garrett having been gone for so long, he was worried about the state of the pack, so they agreed that he could go back and run things in Garrett’s absence.The gang that was out had just finished getting things wrapped up at Logan’s pack, and all necessary steps had been carried out. They turned to Killian for their next set of instructions, with the Lycan Alpha letting everyone know that they could go back home, while everyone needed at the werewolf cast
