Killian’s eyes skip right over us and the others. Aksel’s darkness does its job and keeps us hidden.
I’m taking slow, deep breaths to stay calm. He’s right there and I want to zoom in and rip his head off for everything he’s put me through.
Killian is looking in corners and glancing back at the door. Something has triggered his suspicions but he hasn’t left yet. He wants this artifact enough to ignore whatever is bothering him.
We have to wait until he touches the Patera Mixtionis and triggers the binding spell but he never does.
That means it’s time for plan B.
Killian shoots away from the Patera Mixtionis and towards the door but we were prepared for him to run. This room in the museum has wards to prevent him from transporting out, a theft measure we are using to our advantage.
Felix drops down from his perch outside the door of the room and snarls at Killian.
He halts to a stop and takes off in the opposite direction at top speed. He’s stopped in his tracks again when Aksel reveals that Blaze and himself are blocking that exit as well.
Even if he got past them, Aly and her mates are prepared for him.
“So, it’s a fight you want? Then let’s fight,” Killian says. The elite tone of his voice is the complete opposite of how Rion talks.
I stand here with my muscles tight and ready to spring when my moment arrives.
Today is the end of Killian.
Nineteen
Felix
The guys and I all circle around Killian, poised to attack.
“It’s laughable that you think you can take me on and win. I’ve always been a step ahead and last time we came face to face there was no fight,” Killian taunts us.
He’s right, we have failed but this time we have come more prepared.
“You’re right,wearen’t enough,” Aksel responds.
Just like we planned, a blur shoots into the room. I know it’s Anna, making my heart pound in my throat and every muscle in my body locks up.
I wish she didn’t have to play this role for our plan to work.
Killian snatches her out of the air by her neck. When he lifts her off the ground I pray with every ounce of my soul we have enough time before he snaps her neck. He wasn’t supposed to catch her like this. I can’t let her get hurt.
Every inch of me screams out to go closer.
“What’s this around your neck? It just won’t do,” Killian says.
That’s when the plan goes to shit.
Rion dashes into the room at top speed to kill his brother while he’s distracted by Anna but Killian moves faster.
In less than a second he rips Anna’s amulet off her neck and says, “Protect me and kill them all.”
She reacts instantly by cutting Rion off and tackling him to the ground.
We’ve lost the element of surprise and we have to fight our mate if we want to free her from her sire bond.
Anna snarls and goes for Rion’s throat. He throws up his arm, blocking her attack without hurting her.
“Anna, you can fight this,” Rion begs as he flips her onto her back and pins her down.
