Chapter 108



*Merikh*

My neck throbs in pain as I frown at Ezrah. This is someone I trust, someone I considered to be a friend or at least friendly, even when the council refused to be that way with me. But Colette is right to question him and where his allegiance stands. Too much is happening, too much doesn't make sense and he might just be that missing piece.

Hybrid Lauren wasn't created on purpose. She was an accident, but who the hell put her back together enough for her body to heal? There is so much that doesn't make sense.

Things that go against the natural law or things we understand as supernatural beings. My head hurts and a wave of exhaustion floats over me, lingering just out of reach to shoo away or catch and nap off.

"You are choosing our side?" Colette asks Ezrah, who looks sad, but he nods in agreement.

"Yes,"

"Why?" she retorts, her eyes narrowed as she waits for the truth.

"Fae have special gifts, and jobs we take seriously," he explains.

"I already know that." She grits out and he frowns.

"And you know that I have the ability to move very fast, to deliver messages and talk my way out of situations."

"Not doing a very good job of talking yourself out of this one," she snorts, and he shakes his head in disbelief.

“Luna, I am trying very hard to be cordial."

I sigh, a heavy exhale as I punch the bridge of my nose.

"We don't need cordial, we need honesty." I tell him and he nods solemnly.

"I know." he paces over to a chair and plops down, looking torn. "This has been my life for hundreds of years, this is what people with my abilities do. To share with you secrets I have been sworn to protect is breaking everything I know and believe. I will have no family after this."

Colette softens in her anger and she frowns before she reaches out and takes my hand in hers.
