Bound in Blood (Broken Bloodlines, #3)

by Sadie Kincaid

I hope I haven’t interrupted your mating bond this time. If you had, I would return to the mortal realm simply to burn you to ash. Now, what is it?

“No.” Alexandros’s tone is stern. “It was everything.”

“I chose you the moment I saw you, Xavier. And I will always choose you.”

Ophelia gives me everything I need whilst I give her everything I am.

That is because I tasted her blood. A hell of a long time before you did, Father.

Enora takes her last breath and falls.

U are joking

When I sit up, Cadence’s severed head rolls toward me, coming to a stop a few feet away from me. Her beautiful face forever frozen in terror. My wonderful, loyal friend.

Until the end, Dragon Healer.

His next word breaks me. Dad! I rest my forehead against his. I am here. I will not leave you, son. I promise.

The veil is closed. Alexandros and the boys are safe. The world is safe. The light goes out. I can finally rest.

“You came back to us, baby,” Malachi says.

If I say no, you’re just gonna keep talking to me in my head, aren’t you?

I love you, Lucian. You always have a home wherever I am.

“Well, Cadence Enora, actually. The second elementai born in over five hundred years should be named after two of the bravest women who ever lived, don’t you think?”
