Chapter 183

RYKER’S P.O.V

Lyla had written one word in the sand. I tried to imagine how much pain she was in and what it took out of her to use her own blood to write in the sand. I had no idea what it meant but at this point, I was ready to take anything. It was one simple word written so sloppily that you needed a special skill to be able to read it- hill. I wasn’t sure if it was a clue as to where Reina was keeping Camilla or a clue into the

future, whatever it was, I was searching the hills first.

I rushed into the palace ignoring the others behind me as I rushed to search for the weapon we had

hidden. If I was to find Reina then I needed to do it fast. I didn’t know what she had planned for Camilla

but I knew that it couldn’t possibly be good. Once I found it, I stashed it with my other weapons glad

that it easily blended with them. I was on my way out when Christine positioned herself in my doorway.

“Wait, you need to see something,” she told me and it took everything in me not to lose my cool.

“I have immense respect for you as Camilla’s cousin and as family,” I began slowly, “but if you do not get

out of my way, I will make you and we both do not want that.”

I made to side step her but once again she stepped into my path. “I just need you to listen to me for five seconds. You don’t even know where you are going and I might have the answer to that.”

I crossed my arms over my chest. “Can you suddenly see the future now? You better have something good or this will not be a pleasant experience.”

“Kevin was found in the woods and he doesn’t look good. I think he might have had an experience with Reina. He looks the same as the others, like he was touched by death’s hand.”

Of all the things I expected her to say, that wasn’t one of them. I had completely forgotten that I had instructed Kevin to watch over Camilla. I muttered a curse under my breath before taking off towards the front of the palace where Kevin was fighting furiously against the hold of the other guards. I couldn’t make out much of their conversation but I could tell that he was trying his hardest to ensure that he was not taken to the physician’s quarters.

found Camilla as soon as possible. The plan was to mind link the others if we happened to find Camilla but I knew I wasn’t going to do that. Reina was powerful, I wasn’t sure about exactly how powerful she was but I knew that she could wipe us all out if she wanted. There was a reason she took Camilla alone and I wanted to know

to risk alerting Reina to our presence. The best thing we had was the element of surprise. She didn’t know that we had an idea where she was. Hell, we truly didn’t have an idea, this was a hunch and I prayed that it was a good one or else we would have wasted
