My favourite descendants have gotten themselves in such trouble. One in the rebel army, another locked in Darkmore. I love the chaos my family creates.”

“Lance Orion,” she said with a light laugh. “My descendant Leon likes him. He licked him once, you know?” “That makes him his,”

“The old Guild was made up of the twelve power families, as you know,” Marigold said. “The balance was set, each of them made equally as powerful as the others. Alphard, Vega, Acrux, Capella, Altair, Pollux, Rigel, Andromeda, Denebola, Castor, Betelgeuse, and Pleiades.”

Next, Roxanya took a lapis lazuli crystal from her bag, the deep blue stone filled with pure golden swirls. “That’s mine,” Darius hissed as he looked at the priceless stone, smoke spilling between his lips.

I stayed with my flesh and blood, the child I loved with the ferocity of the stars themselves. He had a life to live, and I would deliver it to him even if I had to die all over again to secure it, even if my soul was cast to ash and scattered to the farthest reaches of the universe, never to be restored.

There wasn’t a Fae in any realm, in any time, that I would have chosen for Lance over Darcy Vega.

I think often of their Elysian Mating, the purity in it. To find such love is a rarity indeed, and for my son to find it with the daughter of my best friend.

I have not forgotten what you told me the night of their Elysian celebrations.” I recalled the night, the raucous party we had all descended into here beyond The Veil, while our children partied in kind.

Roxanya Vega wouldn’t take no for an answer when she set her mind on something she wanted, and the stars themselves should be trembling at the thought of her wrath turning their way.

“When it comes down to it, you’d burn the entire fucking world to ash for a single smile from her lips, wouldn’t you?” “Is there a problem with that?”

But you are selfish when it comes to her, utterly, unerringly selfish. She’s the one and only thing you won’t ever question, the one thing you put above all else. If the world had to end to see her safe, you’d light the fuse that blew it from existence.”

“Besides, a hero is never going to be what it takes to bring my father down. He moulded me into a villain and so that’s what I am. For her. For him. Damnation isn’t good enough for that piece of shit. And heroics aren’t good enough for her. So hand me the fuse, oh Savage King, because I’m ready to burn it all.”

I caught his eye, warning him not to pity me with a single firm look. But no such thing entered his gaze, instead, a fiery hatred for my father’s butler entered his eyes. He wanted vengeance for all Jenkins had done, I could see it plain and clear, and for a fleeting moment I imagined what it might have been like to know Hail Vega as Roxanya’s father. He had not been given nearly long enough with his children, and it felt strange to be on the receiving end of his protectiveness when he’d had few opportunities to bestow it on those he truly cared for.

“Reap justice from his unhallowed soul.” The creature faded to nothing before us, and I turned to Hail with a savage smile. “Let’s go help Roxy cheat death.”

Caleb knocked the Dragon dick vibrator from the bed, causing it to fly straight through Hail’s ass. My lips parted, but honestly, what the fuck was I supposed to say when a golden Dragon cock had accidentally penetrated him?

Darius swooped along beside me, his right wing brushing against mine, a roar bursting from him in encouragement of his brother. Xavier was looking our way, a neigh leaving him that said perhaps he knew we were here, celebrating this win with him.

“Darius…I shed you of the Acrux name.” “Already happened,” he said. “When I married your-” “I shed you of the Acrux name,” I repeated louder. “I am proud to call you a Vega.”
