to planning things. I just want to get this over with and move on. I’ve found me a person I can live with, and she and I are going to go all the way across these states and never return. Not that I could, but you never know what sort of fun I can get into elsewhere.”

“She’s not so bad, I guess. I mean, I’ve worked for a— Here he is.”

The drawer was opened all the way, and Don could smell the vampire on the body. Asking CJ if it was the man from the jail, she didn’t take her eyes off the two in the room with them. Shaking her a little, she turned to him, and he could see the tears in her eyes.

To be betrayed was one thing. But to be deceived by someone you thought of as your friend was something else altogether. Cody and CJ had been together for a long time, he thought, and to find out now it had been a setup from the beginning would have hurt him as well. He held her tighter when the man picked up the body and put it over his shoulder to leave.

“I’ll just have to dispose of this body, then I can work on the things I’ve been assigned for CJ. Why do you think taking her mate is going to do anything to her? I mean, from what I’ve heard all her life, she’s nothing but a hardass that needs to be put down.” When she started to move toward to the two men, he had to hold her tightly. Telling her they’d plan something for them had her calming down. “I think she has a nice body, but nothing more than that. I’d have to make sure to tape her mouth up when I fucked her so she’d not be bitching the entire time.”

Taping up your mouth would take away the greatest pleasure I’ve ever known. She was hurt, and he knew it. Cuddling her into his arms, he explained to her what he was going to do to the other man as soon as he caught up with him. So you see, it’s a good thing you came here to ask me a question. We might not have known to what extent things are for the two of them.

Cody is going to die. The other man as well, but Cody is mine to kill. Don said he would allow her to face him if she promised to wait for him to take care of the other things first. I need you to be caught by them.

Why? She explained to him the plan that was working in her head. I see. I get kidnapped so you can show them what a real bad person you are. She told him she was a badass. Yes. Well, pardon me for that. But I know your ass intimately, and there is not a thing wrong with it as far as I can see.

The two of them watched the men, following them out of the hospital and to a van he took down the license plate for. He didn’t care that they stole the body he’d been there to look at, but it did bother him that CJ was so hurt. Don reached out to Bancroft to let him know what was going on. He, too, was hurt that Cody was in on this scam.

Are you with them now? Don told him they were following them to see where this led. You let me know, and I’ll be there to help. I know CJ has her army, but this is personal now. I want them to suffer, and I’m sure she won’t do that. To think that— We’ll have to tell Melisandre too. She’s not going to be very happy.

Not yet. Bancroft asked him why not. I don’t know yet, but I did just have a thought that she might be the big boss ordering things around. While I’m not sure that is possible—she did give us the magic that would make us immortal, but I don’t know for sure that she even did that. It bears a little thought. Don’t you think?

Christ, I hope you’re wrong. He said he did as well. All right. Then who do you think we should notify? I’m not going to be in hot water over not informing someone of what we think is happening. Anyone.

Aurora. She is the queen of just about everything to do with the earth, correct? That seemed to satisfy both of them. She’s been around for a long time, so far as we know. Not to mention there doesn’t seem to be any connection between her and CJ. I don’t know that I trust anyone at this moment, but like you said, we have to do something.

In the end, Bancroft was going to contact Aurora. Neither of them knew the woman—just who she was really. She’d been around, they knew, for a very long time. But since they’d never had a reason to contact her, he supposed they’d not gotten on her radar. Yet, anyway.

Don and CJ followed the men to a place in the middle of a great field. Once there, the body was removed, then put into the house. CJ stayed with the two of them while Don made his way to the large open area that smelled of death.

Bancroft. I need you to come to me now. And if you have contacted Aurora, it might be a great idea to have her come along with you. He asked him what he’d found. It might be better if you were to just come to me. This is bad. Really bad.

Aurora appeared first. Then Bancroft. They all stood there, looking into a manmade cavern filled with bodies. Not just of humans, though there were a lot of those, but faeries as well. Don wasn’t sure what was going on, but he had a feeling the shit was just about to hit the fan, and
