Anne chuckled. Her dreams were coming true. Dawn was going to go against Gayle and then return to the Wyatts where her doom awaited her already. Her plan fitted so well. She was excited. "You are cunning!" she remarked. "And vicious," Dawn added, "And clever, and intelligent. Oh! Mix a flavor of sweetness to that." Anne laughed. She was beginning to like this hateful being. Her eyes gleamed. Oh! What a day! It started so bad. She feared that Dawn would slap another lawsuit, but Helena told her the…-

"In the end, Helena told me that she didn't harm both of you, keeping her side of the bargain. What I couldn't understand was that if she left you unharmed, why did you guys escape?" He sighed. "I didn't know where you two went to, but it killed me from the inside to know if you were safe or not." He looked at Dawn and said, "You were really good at concealing yourself well. And I can't imagine how you saved yourself from the clutches of Helena and Jason that too with a ten-year old brother in tow, but you…

Gayle seemed perturbed when he voiced the last sentence. He raked his fingers through his already raked hair. A glass of water on the table beside him could quench his thirst. He picked it and chugged the content. But could it cool down the deep anguish that was burning in his chest? He continued, "Helena's role was to lure Luke Wyatt, get the Company back, kill Luke and then get out. But she double-crossed me. She had grown used to Luke's growing affection for her, the way he spoiled her with his money…

Gayle crossed her room and kept the black leather bag he was carrying on a table in the corner. Daryn stared at his father's back as he crossed his hands across his chest. On the inside her was nervous even though his fa?ade was not showing any emotion. Suddenly the door opened and he turned his face sharply to see Cole striding in. Cole dragged a chair out and sat on it near Dawn. Muscles of his face were tight. Tension was palpable in the atmosphere. Dawn's back was stiff as she watched Gayle…

When Dawn fluttered her eyes open, everything was hazy. She thought that she was still in her dream-like state where she was fighting the clouds to find her father. She had to ask him so many questions… "Father…" her voice was a mere whisper. 'Dawn!' Quetz called. "Dawn?" Daryn rushed to her and sat right next to her. Immediately he pressed the bell behind the bed to call the doctor. He held her hand and squeezed it tight. Dawn opened her eyes wide and it took a few seconds before her vision came…

When Dawn reached home that evening, she found Daryn sprawled across the bed, sleeping like a log. Relieved, she covered him with a blanket and then went to take a shower. Soon she came back by his side and wrapped her arms behind him. The warmth that emanated from his body suffused sleep. She entered in her wonderland of dreams of small boys who looked just like Daryn—her mini Daryns. She must have chuckled in her sleep, because she found wet lips over hers and then those wet lips traveled downwards in…

Daryn had actually run through the mountains to the north. Caleb had joined him an hour later. The two Lykae ran at god speed. And their decision to run up to the edge of the country was better than taking a plane. As soon as they reached the nearest airport, they took a flight to Juneau and once again they ran as werewolves to the interiors of Tongass, the enchanted realms – Whitb?rg Forests, the coordinates of which was given by Ileus. Daryn gazed around at the scenery scanning every little point.…

At first Dawn thought that her stomach would lurch as Quetz ascended in the sky, but when they were higher, she began to enjoy it. She realized how much she missed flying on her dragon. She relaxed her arms behind and straightened her neck back, as she took in the vista beneath her and in front of her. The pink Whispering Eobens looked wonderful. They were whispering something she couldn't understand as they swayed in the soft breeze that was coming from the river. When Quetz slightly higher, she could see…

A week had passed and Dawn was becoming increasingly hungry. And Quetz was insisting that she come and visit him. Dawn, I need to unlock your potential… and mine,' he said one night when he could no longer let his powers stay confined in his body. He was desperate, he was dying to unleash them. She was relaxing after her dinner. With her legs on Daryn's back and her head propped up on the pillows, she was reading documents, related to the next trial. For two weeks, Anne had sent apologies after…

As soon as the waiter left, Daryn turned his gaze to the TV screen. He narrowed his eyes and glared at Anne on the screen for speaking such blatant lies. Then he looked around at all those who were staring in their direction and let out a small growl. His aura was so lethal that the customers stopped staring at them and focused on eating their food. "Dawn, don't pay attention to Anne. You know that they are speaking lies." He pressed her hand, which was cold. "By this time you have to get acclimatized…
