Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Milo’s POV

We had been orchestrating our plan of attack since Lady Camille came and spent most of the day speaking with Lenora and I. Delilah went in and looked at Kas’s vision of Bronx killing her. She was able to study, evaluate, and determine details that Kas would never have been able to see. Delilah worked with her mother to help explain what they believed would cause the event, when it would happen and some ideas of how we could prevent it.

Lady Camille had one of the coven’s sisters conference call into the meeting...well, sort of...she used magic instead of the actual phone, but she was there. She was a fortune teller, which I was sceptical of but I listened respectfully anyways.

She explained what would happen if we didn’t step in and stop Bronx. Short story: Kas would die. Bronx would be charged with murdering the Luna Regent of the Blood River pack and high treason. He would be executed for his crimes by the High Council and we wouldn't be able to stop it.

Then she told us Saint was going to be really unstable when he came back from his near death experience in France. Bronx, for the most part, would keep him under control but that was just on the surface. If Bronx had any crazy ideas, it was Saint manipulating him and we were to just go along with it. Well let me tell you, that ended up with Kas and Lex having a mental breakdown and Ryan Connors almost killing her. Oh, and Bronx almost dying...again. 2

Finally, she explained if we stopped Bronx from killing Kas, it was close to a ninety percent chance we would succeed. Seems like a no brainer, right? Well there was a catch. There’s always a catch. If Saint doesn’t believe he had killed Kas, he would keep trying until he succeeded. He needed to see the damage he had done to his mate to snap him out of whatever his psychosis was. |

Unbeknownst to us, Delilah is a potions master. Because she signed the charter to be able to live on pack territory, there were certain things she agreed not to do. Mixing potions is one of those practices that can be extremely dangerous, so she just studied theory and worked with Kas on perfecting her baking skills instead.

“Gray magic,” Lenora said flatly at the revelation, looking directly at Delilah, “ Did you know if that potion you gave Kas the other night would hurt her or not?”

Delilah turned her eyes to the table.

“Did you know?” Lenora repeated again with a growl, slamming her hand on the table.
