"I'm sure you would like some time with your father." The Vampyr Queen rose from her bone chair, dropping the chain with a small smirk.
I couldn't speak, even if I wanted to. A sick feeling spread through me as the thin chain fell in a glittering arc. So many secrets. So many lies and half truths. All for what?
"We would appreciate a few moments alone for Syn to greet her father, yes." I was grateful for Xander. He was calm, collected. Everything I was not in this moment.
I was angry. Beyond pissed actually. Livid might be the word, but terrified.
My father was the strongest man I knew. If he was now the plaything of Tatiana, then something truly horrid must have happened to my mother.
And if that was the case, I would definitely be causing another interspecies incident.
