Kyson POV

Gannon never returned all night. I waited for the mind link to open up and tell me she started shifting, but once midnight came and went and the sun rose, I peered out toward the stables in the distance through my window. Gannon stood out front, and I saw Abbie rushing down the dirt path toward her.

It angered me that Abbie would defy orders and go to her. I told everyone to steer clear of the stables.

Opening the mind link, I felt for Gannon’s tether when my door opened and Damian stepped in. “She never shifted,” he stated.

“I figured that much out already,” I told him, my tone clipped. Damian glanced around the room and shook his head.

“You’re drunk and clearly haven’t slept,” he snapped disapprovingly.

“I was waiting for her to shift,”

“And the bottles?” He asks, picking up an empty one and tossing it at the fireplace.

“I don’t need your scolding, Damian,” I answered, walking over to my bed and lying down.

“She never shifted,” Damian stated again.

“I am aware,”

“Gannon said all night she was fretting, trying to nest with the d**n horses. You are delaying her,” Damian yelled at me. His anger was beginning to bother me and it was getting to the point, I would have to put him in his place.

“I am doing no such thing; I had her put outside where the d**n moon is, so don’t blame me for her not shifting. She is probably the oddity that gets the traits and does not shift,” Damian growled at my words though deep down, I knew it was because of me. I could feel her distress, just couldn’t bring myself to go to her.

“At least f*****g heal her hand and stop being a jerk,” he snarled, storming off to my closet. He comes out with some of my clothes in his arms.

“We are moving her to the east wing, your old room. That’s where she will be when you get over yourself.” Damian tells me.

“I don’t want her in the castle,”

“Too bad, I am not having my Queen in the f*****g stables like some farm animal,” Damian snapped before walking out and slamming the door. I sighed before glaring at the picture of my sister on top of the bedside table drawer.
