Aiden’s face hardened.
“And the red-eyed thing?”
Livia sucked in a breath so fast the room noticed.
She knew.
“What?” I asked, too quickly.
She looked at Marcellus first.
He gave one small nod.
“I heard them talking,” she whispered. Her voice sounded scraped raw. “Before they put me in the van. They said one of the hounds failed.”
Hounds.
Fuck.
Samael slammed forward so violently I had to curl my fingers into my palms to keep claws from pushing through and finish scaring the girl more.
“What are they?” Aiden asked.
"I saw only one of them," Livia swallowed, reeking of fear enough to make my gut twist. “I think other than wolves... some warlock and vampire blood could be in the mix.”
The room dropped out beneath my feet.
And those things wanted my princess.
Aiden’s hand lande
