Chapter 330
Lanie
I was losing track of time, but I found I didn’t care.
In the mornings, we had breakfast in our luxurious quarters as a family, then got the children ready for school. After that, Gabriela took herself off to whatever she did all day, while my mates and I spent an hour or so making love. Then the men went off to train with Greyson while I met with Malachi or Charlotte, or spent. time with Delilah.
Brightsky was truly becoming home.
More than that, it was as close to a paradise as I could ever have imagined.
No luxury was out of reach. The enclave had whatever I could think of. Spa massage? No problem, Lanie.
I Do you want that in the spa or your quarters?
Hungry for rare steak in the middle of the night?
Again, not an issue. Help yourself to the common kitchens if you’re in the mood to cook. Or have it sent to
your rooms with whatever else you could ask for..
I knew that a lot of the treatment was special because I was Malachi’s bloodline, but the longer we spent there, the more I came to understand that Brightsky really was a utopia. Everyone had a role, a job, but everyone worked together using their best skills.
…what’s my contribution, then?” I was sweating, the taste of copper rich in my mouth. Delilah had really been putting me through my paces. Wolves couldn’t fly…but I was learning that vampires could.

“You’ll get it. As for your contribution, you’ll have to see. We all find a way to make this place work.”

Chapter 330
“I can be convinced.” With a groan, I got to my feet.
Penelope gave us an eager wave. “Hello, friends! I got us a reservation, but if we don’t get there in ten minutes, we’ll miss it.”
As we rode in the elevator down, down, down, countless floors, I thought about her greeting.
Friends. The other two women chatted, and I watched them with a lump in my throat. They were my
friends.
I missed my old friends, of course, but here… “I feel so much more at home here than anywhere else I’ve ever been.”
Penelope linked her arm through mine. “Good.
Because we love having you here.”
The hot springs turned out to be in a series of caverns with soft lighting, fluffy towels, and benches carved into the stone pools. The three of us stripped naked and got into a pool of steaming water, and I sank back with a happy sigh.
