“Is that whose house it was?” I ask.
“Yes,” Griffyn answers.
Their collection isn’t massive so it’s easy to see the blue gem that we saw on the page of the spell book.
“That one.” I point out.
Aksel stops and clicks on it. It gives a name and brief description, confirming it’s what we need.
“So he has four out of six ingredients for this spell that can destroy all mate bonds. Who even invented that in the first place?” Griffyn whines.
“Someone as unhappy and bitter as Killian is,” Blaze answers.
“We have to stop him.” Felix clutches his chest like he can physically hold onto the bond between us.
I feel similar. Losing my bond with Griffyn and Felix would be like losing a limb. Now that I have it, I can’t live without it.
“Could this kill people? Can’t the breaking of a mate bond be deadly?” I ask.
Rion nods. “Some can survive the pain of their bond breaking but, commonly, people choose not to go on without their mates. I’m not sure how someone would react if they knew their bonded was right there and alive. Everyone wouldn’t be lucky enough to be together, though.”
“What were the last two items? We should search for them and see if we can find them on this website,” Felix suggests.
Aksel tries the Patera Mixtionis object but there are no results. The second, Sfear Gloine, does show up as within a collection here in the United States.
“We need to get that before Killian,” Blaze says.
I agree.
“We should stake it out and catch him. Stopping him isn’t enough, we need him dead. Anna’s life and freedom rely on Killian dying.” Rion smashes his fist down on the counter.
“He’s right. This is our best chance to find Killian. We know where something he needs is,” Aksel agrees. “We need to start immediately. Blaze and I will go now, Felix and Griffyn will switch with us in five hours. I’ll make a complete schedule after that.”
Blaze and Aksel don’t waste any time leaving until it’s only Rion, Griffyn, Felix, and I.
“I feel hope,” I confess.
“We should all have hope. Catching Killian has been difficult, this is a real lead for us.”
Felix wraps me up in his arms and Griffyn quickly joins. I’m sandwiched between the two of them but something is missing.
Rion is standing awkwardly to the side, unsure of his place in this moment.
I know I want him with me so I need to make that clear.
I reach out a hand to him and when he takes it I pull him close. The three of them surround me and I know I want this for the rest of my life.

Griffyn and Felix share a look.
“What?” I ask.
“I know this is personal and between the two of you but we’re your mates and I think it’s important. I don’t want to rip Rion’s throat out for touching my mate which makes me think he is most likely also your fated mate but I think you should find out now. You guys don’t have to mix blood and mate but you should know the truth,” Felix says.
My eyes swing to Rion who looks nervous as hell.
