We’re going to assume they were guilty, but without a trial…” Be glad I don’t demand justice for their families. You’ve already taken the heads of two Arcadians. Going once, going twice… are there any more confessions in the room? Anyone else want to admit to shooting a lion?” He paused. “We have another confession from Dare Kattalakis. “It’s time for once that I did the right thing for the right reasons.” “I’m altering it.” Dare looked back at Angelia. “We had a bargain,” Fury said under his breath. “Because it was my wrongdoing, and I refuse to have an animal show me up by being noble. The one who killed the other is already dead.”įury shook his head at Dare. “I’m the one who fired the shot that maimed the lion. “He confessed to save – ”Īngelia froze in shock as Dare cleared his throat.ĭare glanced to her, then looked at Fury. “Fury’s innocent,” she said, stepping forward. It would have been her greatest honor to be his mate and have his children. Looking down, she traced his symbol on her palm. Tears stung Angelia’s eyes at the sacrifice Fury was willing to make. “Interesting, isn’t it? What do you have to say about that, Fury?” He told me he would find the one responsible and make them pay.” I was there at Sanctuary when he saw the lion and he knew nothing about it.” I might not like his ass, but I know he’s innocent. Unless someone in the room has something more to add.” Since that corroborates what Fury has said, I suppose your vote on his fate will be an easy one. “We have a witness who swears he saw Fury in the act. That thought died as she saw Dare appear next to Fury. “Next person or animal who interrupts me is going to get gutted.”įury’s gaze was locked on hers. “Dammit, Vane, I told you not to – ” A muzzle appeared on his face. Savitar snapped his fingers, and Fury appeared before his throne in chains.Īngelia started for him, only to have Vane stop her.įury did a doubletake as he saw her. “Wait your turn, Lion, or I’ll be wearing your eyeballs as jewelry.” He claims he killed the fourth member and doesn’t want to run.” It seems one of those responsible has come forward to turn himself in. “The family of the victim wants the other two. I have the head of two of the four people responsible.” He indicated the lions to his left. Two days ago, a couple of bastards decided to go hunting. Several members sucked their breaths in sharply. It appears some of our good Arcadians have created and now used a weapon that can take away your preternatural abilities and lock you into your base form.” “Okay, so some of you do, which is why I have to explain this. But for those who haven’t heard and you’d have to live under a rock…” He looked over to the Arcadian Hawk Regis and hesitated. “I know everyone here wants to be somewhere else. Savitar let out a long, exaggerated sigh. “Then let’s proceed.” He walked past the round table where the Omegrion members sat and took a seat on a throne that was set apart. “You have your witnesses, Wolf?” he asked Vane. Dressed in surf clothes, he eyed her suspiciously. At least six-feet-eight, he had long dark hair and a goatee. Turning, she found an unbelievably gorgeous man there. Or even where he came from.īefore she could ask another question, she felt a ripple of power behind her. The only problem was no one really knew what Savitar was. More like a referee, Savitar held the final fate of all of them in his hands. It was amazing to her that they didn’t fight. Here the Regis, one representative for each branch of the Katagaria and Arcadians, met. Her entire life, Angelia had heard stories about this place. Nodding, he took her with them to Savitar’s island and into the chamber room where the Omegrion met and decided the laws that governed all shapeshifters.
“Don’t forget me.” Angelia moved to stand in front of Vane.įang gave him a stern look. I’ve been summoned by Savitar who asked me to bring any witnesses who can testify to his innocence.”įang cursed. “Fury has turned himself in as the one who maimed the lion.” He glared at her before he turned to Fang. The question had barely left her lips before Vane appeared. Why would he have lied to her? Dear gods, what was he doing? “Then where is he?” “What?” Angelia asked, immediately scared by his reaction. “He said he was going to see a friend about getting the lions off my trail.” There was a time Angelia would have agreed. “On what? Being mated to Fury seems like a nightmare to me.” “Leave the poor woman alone, or at least congratulate her.” How do we end this?”Īngelia sat downstairs with Fang sniffing at her hand. The sad thing was, she couldn’t blame him. “I’m the one who has to be sure of your motivation.”īecause he still didn’t trust her. “Don’t you think I’m smart enough to know the difference?”
