Essi’s pov “So you’re telling me the little girl is with Genieve, sister of Alpha Raphael?” I grit my teeth, anger so fierce coursing through me.

Malia nodded and bowed her head, her fingers playing with the rune stones that apparently spoke to her and foresaw the future and the present.

I hated witches with a passion. They were nasty and could be quite trickery. But I have been searching for that damn pixie child for years now, only to now know that she was right under my nose all along.

How did I miss this?

Genieve must be keeping her locked away.

I lift the glass of blood to my lips, seeping some of that coppery goodness. I let out an ahh then grumble. “Then it’s settled. I will ask Genieve to hand me the child

Malia shook her head. “I am afraid it wouldn’t be that simple queen. Genieve is fond of the girl and sees her as her daughter. She also knows what the girl possesses, and what she can create. She will never willingly give you the girl.”

My eyes flashes as I snarled Malia flinches and I could hear the quickening of her heartbeat. The blood that pumped through her

veins.

My fangs pierce out and Malia froze. I rolled my eyes. “Don’t be a fool, Malia. I do not want your dirty blood. You witches sicken me.”

To my amusement, Malia sighed in relief.

I rise off my chair, my glass in hand as I tapped my finger on the glass. I hummed. Yes, I remember that stupid Athena woman mentioning how she told the wolf people about the child. I thought she was bluffing at the time. Apparently not.

I hummed

If Genieve knows about the girl, she’d never willingly give the girl up as Malia had said.

“Then I will have to take the child by force. Wage war on them if I have to.”

Malia picks up her stones, shakes them in her fist, and drops them. They spun for a few moments before stopping. Malia sucks in a sharp breath. “I am afraid you can’t do that queen Essi.”

I snarled in anger, her response was not what I was expecting. “And why the hell not!?”

Malia lifts her head, her gaze wide with fear as she reluctantly answers dreadfully. “Because I see your death. If you wage war on Alpha Raphael you’ll die. His pack is filled with skilled fighters.”

This is exactly why those dogs needed to move off the face of the earth. Dirty repulsive wet dogs. They sickened me. “I want the child!” I snarled, the glass shattering from the force I held it with.

Malia shakes her head. “I’m sorry

In a flash I had her in my clutches, my fingers wrapped around her slim neck, her feet dangling above the floor. “You’re useless. Another fucking useless creature. You’re a witch, find me a way to get the girl!” I roared.

Malia’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as I applied more pressure to her neck. “Please queen Essi. I can’t control the future.

I applied even more pressure until she was gasping for air, until her legs shook, and until I hear the sound of her heart pumping painfully. “Find me a way.” I snarled. “Or else, I’ll feed my entire clan with your blood.”
