Cian, where she can heal and I can protect her” Cian glowered at Adryan “And it will no’ be a place of yer choosing”
Adryan didn’t move, and I wondered if he took offense I wanted to tell Cian it wasn’t Adryan’s fault, that he’d helped as best as he could, that sometimes this happens, but I keptI wanted to do was make matters worse
Finally Adryan inclined his head and held his ar it was an act of backing down I felt like I knew Adryan in that regard well enough
“I’m certainly not in a place to school you on what you do with your time and your mate, so whatever the fuck you want to do, you’re welco you need”
Cian grunted, and I kneas going to be the only “thanks” he gave Adryan
“But I did et the fuck out of here before that van blows and the hu” All aain stern and cold, arrogant and ruthless “My soldiers have already taken out the warehouse once we realized they attacked Evie and your boy They took the Asse facility we have” He grinned slowly and cracked his knuckles “We’re going to get so sure”

The air was so charged I could feel the electricity coursing around us It was hard to not let it affect me as I rubbed my hands over my arms, but it was useless Ever since we’d arrived at the house Adryan had been using as sos had been so tense you could have cut a knife through it
Cian hadn’t even wanted to countil I could heal That was his only concern Me Always me
But Adryan convinced hiather weapons and supplies Ihim the rental car was still here
So here ere, congregated in what I assuutted, alls removed to make more space Everyone watched Odhran warily as he paced back and forth in the corner of the rooave hiray T-shirt
It wasn’t lost onme because he could sense how unstable Odhran was And then Odhran stopped pacing and glared at Cian for ain the small room
“I kno’,” Cian said
“I es, but ainst the wall, one ankle crossed over the other, his hands shoved in his pockets “And I’m pretty sure your mate doesn’t speak a lick of it”
“That was the closest I’ve ever been tae htered all of them” He looked at Cian and thenkilled every last one of theround his teeth “Ye both took away the opportunity of et her”
Adryan pushed off the wall and stared at Odhran “I hate to be the one to point this out, but that hu out of his ass, man You don’t even know if they still have her They knew her name, yeah, but that could be easily accessible if they did so, and we know these fuckers are aware of a hell of a lot about the Otherworld Also, we know there is a traitor aed his broad shoulders “I’ out the obvious Even if we hadn’t slaughtered all of them—which I’ll remind you needed to be done—it didn’t et any information from them”
Odhran started growling and took a step toward Adryan The last thing we needed was a full-on war between the “good guys”
“Adryan,” I said in a stronger voice than I felt at that moment “Didn’t you say you captured some members of the Assembly from the warehouse? Couldn’t you take Odhran there with you to see if they know anything?”
