“Looks like it.” Erin chuckles.

“Hey, share the love!” Harry grins.

“I think it’s definitely my turn.” Kysen smirks as he pulls back slightly.

Cole grins at them all.

They all kiss him and you can feel the joy radiating from them all and it makes me so happy. Cole’s had it rough for so long, none of the other Centre’s have made it easy for him and he really deserves this. Not only that but I’ve gotten to know Kysen pretty damn well over the last few days and i am incredibly happy for him too. I get the feeling that he hasn’t had much love in his life and he deserves to be happy.

“Erm before one of you notices and it becomes a whole big thing,” Istart, as soon as they finally stop kissing. “But you’ve also got a warrior mark on your left shoulder.”

They look confused for a second before they all check they’re shoulders.

“Well damn. Why do I get the feeling that you knew they’d be there before we took off our shirts.” Ty says.

“Because I did, goddess vision.” I explain simply knowing that they’ll all understand since they’re used to dealing with Ty and his visions. “I’m sorry, I know you guys didn’t get a choice and I couldn’t even warn you.”

“Sage I would’ve been absolutely honoured to have even been considered to be one of your Warriors but you saved my damn life. Warrior mark or not I would’ve had your back and been one of your trusted few.” Kysen says firmly and emotion clogs my throat.

I spent so long completely on my own that having people who are willingly there for me is a new and overwhelming concept.

“As for us,” Harry starts, “we’ve heard enough about you from Erin, Nate, Dash and the others to know that we would rather be with you than against you.”

“We wouldn’t be here otherwise.” Ty says serenely.

“And if you saved Sen’s life then that’s all the more reason for us to trust you.” Asher adds.

“Thank you guys, that means the absolute world to me.” I say.

“I’m sorry guys,” Levi interrupts, “I know a lot just happened and it’s a lot for you guys to process but we need to get you all updated on the plan if we’re going to get them out tonight.”

“Of course, we get that. Besides I think I just need a moment to let it settle anyway.” Cole admits. “I spent so long torturing myself thinking about how much I liked you all and that I didn’t want to meet my Bonded mates because they obviously weren’t you. It’s a bit of an adjustment to mesh those two together.”

“I get it.” Erin says as Ty squeezes Cole’s hand in support.

“Right so what’s the plan?” Damon asks.

“Hang on before we get started why don’t we take a seat around the fire the rabbits are just about done and that way we can eat and talk.” Hunt explains, as he stokes the fire, his gaze on the rabbits roasting above.

“Good idea Hunt. I’m starving.” Kyle grins.

Once everyone is settled Hunt starts to hand out the rabbits and Levi gets started explaining the plan.

“We’ve found a weak spot in their defences along the left hand wall about half a mile from where we will start from. There’s not a big gap but it’s the best we’ve got. Once we’re over I’m hoping Ghost and Knot can guide us through the streets and to Nyx’s castle where they’re being held.” Levi starts explaining.

“That’s fucking cheeky of them!” Erin curses, “Centre’s are one of Nyx’s creations the fact that the Order are not only stealing them but keeping them in her own castle must be pissing her the fuck off. Itwould if I was her.”

“At least we know that the Blood Moon Academy actually teaches you shit.” Kai chuckles.

“Dude it’s fucking awesome just wait. It’s hard work though.” Nate replies grinning.

“Anyway,” Levi interrupts giving us the stink eye and making me hide my smirk. “We are going to try to get into the castle grounds using the junction where the castle boundary walls meets the outer wall of the city. It should land us in the tree’s on the other side that will give us extra cover. We aren’t really going to know more until we’re there. Ghost will then lead us to the door where the Centre’s are being kept. We need to make sure we get them out as safely as possible. If we can somehow contain the majority of the Order somewhere it lessens the risk.” He finishes thoughtfully.

“Go at dinner time.” Cole suggests, “they should all be in the same room then or at least the majority of them.”

“That’d work perfectly. It gets dark fairly early here so we will still have the extra cover from the darkness.” Hunt says.

“Erin should be able to block it off.” Jett says.
