Chapter 89

Avalynn POV

A lot has happened over the last few days. Melissa and all of the witches were coming back to our Kingdom to rest and to figure out exactly what was going on with the council. I mean, they had a pretty good idea and I did too when I slipped into Melissa's mind and saw exactly what she and the others had been through. It was absolutely horrible the way they were treated by one of their own. Brent was having a hard time with the fact someone so close to his family, other than his brother, managed to completely destroy it. I sighed and looked out the small window of the plane.

We were so high up in the air, above the clouds even. It was pretty neat. When we finally reached clear airspace, I looked down at the land below. I felt the warmth of his body next to mine. His hand moved to rest on my thigh, giving it a light squeeze.

"Are you okay?" Everest asked me softly.

I turned my head in his direction, my hand moving to rest on his, as I nodded my head before speaking, "I am, are you?"

He smiled and moved his hand to hold mine, bringing it to his lips. His lips grazed the back of my hand softly as he kissed it. "I am just fine."

I laid my head against his shoulder and closed my eyes. I didn't mean to, but I fell asleep. I must have been in a deep sleep because when I woke up, we were in an SUV now. I sat up, moving my arms above my head, stretching the best I could, leaning back against the seat.

"Good evening, my love." His voice was deep, soft, and seductive sounding. I nearly swooned.

"Hi. Where are we?" I looked out the window but it was dark already.

"Close to the border of the Kingdom. The witches are behind us on a bus." He pulled me towards him.

"Oh?" I turned to look behind us and, sure enough, there was a large bus behind us followed by a line of SUVs. I settled back into my seat as Everest was going through the emails he had missed.
