Neah’What if we just kill her? It’s an option right? No one needs to know until afterwards.’ Nyx asks’Because as much as I want to. Dane is right, we need Blair to trade along with Samara. I don’t want Klaus to die. He doesn’t deserve that.”Okay. So maybe we wait until the deal has been struck. Then we kill her? Make it look like an accident? She is Human now, it will be pretty easy to do., maybe we could let her bleed out? And I know you have thought about it so don’t try telling me you haven’t.’ No thought was ever a secret anymore. Either Nyx was listening or Dane was reading my mind.’We are!’ She tuts ‘As much as I want too, I am going to wait, let Dane play this game of his. If something happens, then I will gladly rip her heart out.’I drop on to the bed and stare up at the ceiling as my body melts into the mattress. The omega had taken the twins to Athena’s and Sebastian’s not long after I left last night. She was young and the twins, even at their young age, knew how to test her patience. Though she hadn’t witness Evrin shift yet.Shit, I hadn’t warned Athena or Sebastian either.Closing my eyes, it takes less than a second before I’m hit with a burst of Dane’s woody scent. The door swings open, sending in a rush of cool air.”Are you still mad?” He asks softly.”No, I’m too tired to be mad.”He pauses and I knew he was digging through my mind to see if I’m telling the truth.”Then this might upset you.”

How…. he had….where?” Too many questions were going through my head.”He was drugged as we expected. But it seems to have worn off, just like Samara’s did.”I was trying to process how. Samara had claimed she hadn’t had her abilities for a long time. And Maddie and Blair were still Lycan free.”Cooper has him.” Dane continues.”Where?””He doesn’t want us to go and get him. He thinks it’s a trap and it’s exactly what Cooper wants and expects.””We can’t just leave him!” I scowl”We are not. For now, he isn’t hurt, he is safe but he wants to find out more about Cooper and what his intentions are.””Where is he?” I press”There’s something else.” He ignores my question. He really didn’t want me to know. “Klaus has asked me to speak to Blair about the scent Cooper had. The one he used to trick her into believing he was her mate.””Wh….” I catch myself when it dawns on me what he is saying. “He thinks Cooper is his mate?””He has categorically said he won’t accept him even if he is. He can’t be with someone like Cooper.””Is that why he left with him? Because of the possible bond?””I don’t know. He cut the link before I had a chance to ask.””He cut the link?””Yes.” He sighs. “The last thing he told me was that he was not going to accept the bond. It is why he is asking what Blair could smell. If he knows it’s the same thing, he knows it’s a trick. And I’m letting him link me on his terms, when it is likely safe. “What if it isn’t?” I sigh. “What if the scent is what his mate is supposed to smell? He might not be creating the scent, but instead the idea of the bond. That means everyone he wants will smell the same scent.”‘For someone so tired, you are on the ball today.’ Nyx mutters, impressed.I look at Dane who hadn’t said anything, “There’s something else isn’t there?””Yes. Cooper is half Witch. He wasn’t using anyone. It’s all been him.”I puff out my cheeks. The only other Witch I had met was Madame Curie.”He told Klaus that they carry a mark.”””Like a Witches mark?” Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.Dane closes his eyes and nods. “The mark is the initials of their mate.””And?” I knew he was purposefully giving the information in small doses. Not for some big effect but so I could take it all in.
