Sybil steadied herself in the air—the new wing Elvey had restored for her gave her enhanced strength—and shrieked in victory.
We might still lose. The demons’ numbers were just too great.
Then my peripheral vision caught a group of new riders emerging from the white mountains and charging toward us. Fuck! This was bad. How could we fight another horde?
Cursing, I snapped my head toward the new enemies and widened my eyes as I recognized the leading rider. With ferocious battle cries, he led a dozen dragon shifters on horses and rammed into the demons as if entering a no-man’s-land.
He fought like the fierce wind, just as I remembered.
“Adrian!” I screamed, joyful tears bursting from my eyes.
My fearsome general had finally returned after nine centuries and just in time!
With the new reinforcements, we stood a fighting chance.
We would live.
A shadow dove from the high sky, faster than lightning—the last mutant demon had returned with revenge. This time, he carried a machine bow.
A cluster of arrows rained down toward me.
I heard my name shouted from all directions.
My allies and friends raced toward me. My mates acted as one to block the arrows.
But for all their effort, one or two pierced through my flesh and I dropped to the icy ground.
Henry howled.
Sybil screeched in fear.Daisy Queen, don’t die!
My mates, Elvey, and Adrian all roared my name, but I could not answer them.
I stared at the gray sky where snow kept falling, feeling a rush of hot liquid flowing from the corner of my mouth. I couldn’t stop it. I couldn’t move. The snow under me had never felt so cold, even my hot blood beneath my back turned to ice.
I couldn’t even finish a prayer.Preserve my mates and friends, Arianrhod, goddess of Inann . .
CHAPTER 13
Coldness, desolation, and pain swarmed my consciousness. One moment I thought I was free and that I found my fated mates; the next all appeared to be a hopeless dream and my curse lingered.
Three Furies with scaled human faces, beastly bodies, and massive red wings circled the jungle on the savage planet, shrieking in rage and despair. Our screeches hurt even our ears, but we couldn’t stop them.
No, it was the past. My true loves had come and freed me.
They’d claimed me and fucked me every night, showering me with their passion, fire, ice and storm.
Heart deceives.
I was all alone in the dark. If I had mates, where were they?
My mind traveled between past and present, until it settled on the recent battle against the demons in the endless plane of snow.
Elvey had come. Adrian had come.
What happened to my mates?
I had died, but I didn’t want them to join me. They still had many good things going for them. I only regretted that I hadn’t had a chance to say goodbye and tell them how much I loved and cherished them.
