Chapter 602

Evan leaned into Marcus and snapped his teeth. “Exactly.” His dead eyes turned murderous. “You took my pup

from me.” His fangs descended. “So when Garith cto me, to tellthe humans wanted wolves to do

experiments on, | made sure Sera was the first to be taken.” Evan's face settled. “A pup for a pup.”

“She was pregnant!” Marcus howled.

“So was my son’s Luna.” Evan snapped back. Before anyone could think, he darted in. Blood arced up, and

Marcus let out a garbled cry. Evan dropped the chunk of flesh he had trapped between his fangs.

Marcus pulled his hand back and slammed his shifted claws straight through Evan’s chest. “If I'm dying...” He

gasped. “So are you.” He struggled to pull his hand back out, but with a final wrench, Marcus stumbled back

against me. He sagged against my body, Evan's heart still clutched in his hand. Evan looked down at the hole in

his chest and chuckled.

He looked over at Theo. “Don’t think that just because we are dying you get off scot-free. Theo knows everything

about the humans.” Evan turned to me, and for the first tsince he had cinto the office. “We

underestimated you.” He chuckled again, and blood poured from his lips. “I left everything in my safe at home.”

He turned to Rowan. “I regret it.” He struggled for a breath and looked back at me. “Do you think she will forgive

me?” The two men dropped before | could answer.

Ronnie snorted. “Did he really ask if the Goddess would forgive him as he died?”

| shook my head no. “He wasn’t asking about the Goddess.” | turned to look at my uncle. “He was asking about

his mate.”

“What?” Ronnie furrowed his brow. “But we didn’t talk about his mate.” He looked around the room. “Did | miss

something?”

My father chuckled. “If you rebelled against the King, and because of it, your only pup was murdered in an attack

orchestrated by said rebellion...wouldn’t you worry about what your mate would say when you saw her in the

afterlife?”

Ronnie thought for a second before he winced. “Tina would kill me.” He paused. “Again.”

My dad just nodded before turning back to the two men left in the room. “Theo... | think | have a lot of questions

for you.” My dad’s smile was terrifying.

Theo growled. “You can’t do anything to us. We have guards.” He smirked as he tried to mind-link them.

Yarrow backed away from everyone. “Guards.” He screamed, and | covered my ears. “Guards.”

| turned to Rowan. “You took advice from these men?” My voice was laced with confusion and judgement. Rowan

just snorted out a chuckle.

“They coff smarter when | was younger.” He defended himself, and it was my tto chuckle.

“Sure they did.” | turned back to Yarrow. “The room is sealed, remember. Dumbass. No sound in, no sound out.” |

shook my head. Theo stared at the door expectantly. “You can stare at the door all you want; no one is coming.”

Theo's head snapped towards me. “What do you mean?”

| grinned. “Did you not wonder why | was more than happy to seal the room?” | tilted my head. “Or why you have

had no one mind-link you about how the extermination was going?”

Theo stilled. “We told them only to mind-link us if it was necessary.”

| nodded. “But rasilence for this long?” | raised my eyebrows. “Or is it more likely that your plan failed?”

Yarrow screamed again. “Guards.” His back hit the wall, and he slid to the door, trying the handle.

“That won't work either.” | scratched behind my ear.

“What did you do?” Yarrow kept trying the knob. “Turn off whatever soundproofing system you are using.”

My dad looked at me. “Soundproofing system?”

I smiled as | walked back to the desk and opened the top drawer, pulling out the useless fake control panel.

“This?” Yarrow and Theo both froze.

“We saw you press the buttons.” Theo shook his head.

“You sawpress this useless thing.” | nodded. “But you missed the whispered spell.” | turned back to the two

men with a bright smile. “Did you think the twins and Verity were the only ones with magic?” | laughed. “Come

now...you can’t be this old and that foolish.” | waved a hand, and a ball of light shone in my palm.

“You are a witchling.” Theo whispered in horror.

“So is he.” | nodded to my dad. The two men choked on whatever they were going to say. My dad formed his

own ball of light. Did you ever wonder why he was always protected?”

Theo and Yarrow looked at each

other. Yarrow was the first to ask the

“And we took the spear back.” He grinned as he pulled it from his back pocket. He turned to my dad. “Thank you

for hiding it.”

My dad waved him off. “It was easy.” My dad stood. “But before you use it on these two, | think we have a lot of

unanswered questions to figure out.”

“You can’t use it on us!” Theo screamed.

Rowan just walked over to him and used the tip to raise Theo's head. “You brought the spear here to kill my

mate and sever her bonds with her wolves. | can do whatever | fucking want with you.”
