I wouldn’t find out about your little hideout? And do you know what I did?”
She didn’t give him the satisfaction of asking because she knew he’d enjoy telling her either way.
“I had it burned to the ground. The only refuge you’ll ever find is in my bed. You should always know that wherever you go, I will find you. You can’t run from me. Ever. You are mine and will always be.”
Nya was so caught up in her memories that she didn’t realize the bag had run out of water . The twins had echoed some of the very things Adonis used to say to her and yet they expected for her to fall in line just like he had expected her to. There had to be some way to change this. If there truly was a mate bond why couldn’t there be a way to break it? There was a spell for everything, why not that? For now , she would have to go along with whatever they wanted until she could formulate a proper escape. She’d lull them into a false sense of security and as soon as she found a way out, Nya fully intended to take it. She couldn’t allow herself to be tied down again because this time around, she feared she’d never recover.
By the time she went back inside the twins were huddled together in the corner having what seemed to be a serious discussion. Her superhuman hearing only managed to pick up a few words because she hadn’t fully focused on the conversation, but they distinctly mentioned the names , Edmund and Magda.
Taking advantage of their distracted state, she gathered her clothing that still lay in a pile on the floor and quickly dressed.
Cutter was the first to look into her direction. “I trust you had a nice shower?”
Nya shrugged. “Out here you take what you can get. I don’t have much in the way of food around here, but I can whip you up some eggs if you’d like.”
Both warlocks looked upon her with apparent surprise. They were probably surprised by her 180 but she had to play this right so that they would let their guards down.
“Um, no thank you, solnyska . But thank you for offering,” Blade answered with a smile. “ Actually , we were just discussing you.”
She raised a brow wondering what they were keeping from her. “That’s not what it sounded like when I walked in. Sounded like you were discussing someone else.”
Cutter nodded. “Our brother Steel contacted us through telepathic connection and apparently there seems to be some kind of crisis that we might have to deal with that involves our mother and could quite possibly affect our entire family. It could be nothing but it’s something we’ll have to look into.”
Did this mean they were leaving her and she wouldn’t have to set her plan in motion after all? That news should have elated her but something inside of her wouldn’t allow Nya to be happy about it.
“So does this mean you two are leaving?”
The twins looked at each other before returning their attention to her. “Actually,” Cutter began, “We have to return home to look into a few things but we’d like to take you back with us, after all, this cabin while I’m sure has its uses, just won’t do for the three of us. It’s too small for the three of us and we prefer a location with updated amenities.”
Nya snorted. “You two came uninvited. Besides, who said I was going anywhere with you?”
Blade stood and stalked over to her. He g r asped her chin and dropped a light kiss on her lips. “This is not something up for discussion. You’re coming with us. Besides, if this problem is as big as we think it is, it’s quite possible you might be in danger as well. We want you safe.”
“I was safe before you and Cutter intruded into my life. I was perfectly fine on my own.”
Cutter laughed without humor. “And you were doing a fine job of it too.” His voice dripped with sarcasm. You hadn’t fed properly in months and because you’re too busy trying to prove something to yourself, as of what we don’t know yet, but we can’t leave you alone.”
