“And then you gave it to this Quarter Master guy?”

“I did.”

“So, I can go kill him? Why?”

Delphine directed her view to Emily. “She’ll be waking up soon, and then I can tell the both of you.”

Fucking sneaky witch. I knew she was hiding something.

However, once she mentioned my mouse, all my focus returned to her.

I looked that way.

Emily’s features were peaceful in sleep, devoid of any worry about the craziness that had happened inside of her mind and around her.

Seeing her like this made me feel fiercely protective. “Will she be fine?”

“She will.”

“Does she know that I was in her mind?”

“We will see.”

I turned back to the witch.

Delphine’s expression softened. “You must understand. . .I did what I thought was best.”

“Maxwell is in a hospital fighting for his life. Is that what was best?”

Delphine stepped back like I slapped her. “I did not foresee every outcome, but I maintain that my choices were the right ones, all things considered.”

“Baba is right. If you have some mission, tell my mouse. She may help because in the end. . .” I gestured to her men behind her. “Because in the end, I do not care about humanity. I only care about my mouse and my cubs. Play around with me again and I will fucking kill all of you.”

Rage crossed their faces, but they were smart enough to remain there.

“And as you and all of your families burn in the flames that my bombs have set all over this fucking city. . .” I curved my mouth into a joyous smile. “I will sleep like a baby.”

I left her, walking around the circle and heading to our bed.

Fucking witch!

There, I stood, watching Emily’s peaceful slumber.

New Orleans, a city already rich in history and mystery, was about to become the stage for an unprecedented conflict, one that would draw killers from every corner of life.

Misha, David, Blue, Giorgio, and others were coming to this old city, each with their own agendas, their own battles to fight.

The air ran thick with the excitement of war.

What would this battle look like?

Would it be an inevitable clash of titans?

A fight among gods and monsters?

It does not matter. My mouse is giving me that wedding. That’s all I care about.

I didn’t give a fuck how many people we had to kill, I would finally have that lavish wedding.
