With the slamming of the door behind me, I finally breathed a sigh of release.

She's now officially our beloved and sovereign Queen. Ours to cherish and love forever. The rush of sensation with our essence combined now gives me peace.

"Glad it's done cuz?" Fucking Trey! Everywhere I look or breath he is always up our ass.

"Why are you still here?" Slipping on a pair of boxers as my brothers do the same, they all turn at the sound of the irritation in my voice.

"Chill cuz, just stopped in to tell you bye. I wouldn't have missed this ceremony for anything."laughing at his own humor, only he is amused by. Glaring at him he steps back.

"Ok, ok, Baron relax, you know I only do it to get a rise out of you. I can see how much you love her, I'll leave her alone," abandoning his position against Miracle only gives me a little solace.

"Good." Grunting I pass by him, hitting his shoulder as I go. Out of nowhere the door opens with a crash. Remington is holding the handles trying to catch his breath all eyes are on him.

"Your Majesties,...they...are gone!" Scowling at him, I walk to his side. Remington is trying to catch his breath, worry is etched on his face. What the fuck is he talking about?

"Who is gone Remington?" Leaning down I grabbed his shoulders lifting him up to a standing position.

"King Trigon and Talon...and the Queen." Not waiting further explanation, I run back out to the ceremonial bed. My brothers behind me. Searching the entire area, we only find the bed askew, a sheet lying across the lawn. Looking in every possible direction, they are nowhere to be seen. Worry descends upon all of us. The looks of utter horror written across all of our faces.

"Guards!" Bellowing out in complete horror.  A few guards approach us. They looked disheveled, seemingly terrified.

"What happened?" Brack comes to my side placing his hand upon my back. Trying to communicate a feeling we both feel deep inside. Fear!

"Your Majesty we do now know, there were too many people about. By the time we arrived they were gone." The guard is trembling with fear afraid of repercussion.

"Gather all the guards, question everyone, no one is to leave until I deem it so understand?" Nodding his head he dashed off to do as ordered. Turning to my three brothers desperation is all I see.

"Do any of you sense them?" I tried mind-linking them with no replies, I know their alive, I can still feel their essence, at least we have that. Only that! That only terrifies me.

"No it's like their asleep or unconscious. I can't reach them." The anguish in Lucias voice is filled with trepidation, not unlike my own. I have no idea what's going on. Where the hell are they?

"I saw Talon going back to Miracle, I should've stopped him!" I don't think it would've chained much of anything but Brack will blame himself regardless. Patting him on his shoulder, I shake my head.

"It would not have change anything." I try reassure him.

"We should inform our parents of this dire situation. Perhaps Zada may be of some use." Malik does have a point if anyone would be able to help it would our father.

"Let's go inform him." As we all head back, the guards have people lined up interviewing them. Women are crying holding on it their mates. Looking at it all makes me more apprehensive. Please be ok!

Finding Zada with his fellow colleagues Draco and Frank they all seem irritated. Making our way to them we hear their conversation, stopping us all dead in our tracks. How can this be?

"It was Cathy, I saw her with a tall gentleman creeping behind the ceremonial bed, I alerted the guard but I was too late, I'm so sorry Zada." Draco informs him hugging my father to him. How can it be Cathy? It's been years and still she holds on to there being an us. Lucias killing Andrew didn't rid her of us, it only brought more chaos. Her obsession with me has gone way beyond madness. A fire erupts within me to my very core. How fucking dare she! Hurting me is one thing but going after Miracle and my brothers has crossed a very thin line. Running to then I interrupt their conversation with a fierce growl in my voice.

"Who was she with?" Yanking Zada away from Draco, his surprised expression does nothing to falter me.

"Who?" Growling out, anger is vibrating all through me. He stumbles a bit then rights himself.

"I did not recognize him your Majesty." Draco drags out the word Majesty with a sneer, in a manner that I have never seen with him. I scowl at him he seems unfazed at my anger.

"It was Farrow, your Majesty." Frank breaks in, he's scowling at Draco also, I did not fail to notice the discouragement in his eyes.

"Are you sure?" Ask Brack, Frank turns to him, nodding vigorously.

"I'm sure. I recognized him, I meet him at the ball." Remembering back;  I do recall Farrow was there along with Marcus.

"Was Marcus with him?" Shaking his head Frank sighs.

"No I only saw him and that woman." Thanking him I turn on my heels with my brothers right behind me.

"Find Marcus!" I bellow at them over my shoulder, never faltering from my destination. Malik breaks away to go for his hunt, hopefully he will find him soon. Marcus is pushing his very existence. Questions keep running through my mind.

Why would Cathy and Farrow even be working together? To my knowledge I never knew that they even knew each other. Understanding Farrows hatred at Talon, I can only surmise that it's his reasoning for abducting Talon. But it hasn't nothing to do with Miracle or  even Trigon for that matter. Why would they even do it?

Cathy's obsession is a target for Miracle but not for Talon nor Trigon. None of this is making sense my anger keeps spiking; my dragon is completely on the surface itching to get out. I feel him itching along my skin.

"Guards!" The same guard scurries up to me, his eyes holds hints of terror. I don't even care at this point about his feelings.

"Anything?" His eyes go from me to my brothers, clearing his throat he shockingly tell us.

"There were three of them, your Majesty, two gentlemen and a woman." Three?

"Do you know who they are?" My patience is barely holding on by a very thin thread. No one mentioned a third!

"The only person that anyone could identify was the bear shifter mate of Marcus, your majesty." Frustration riles in inside me, dismissing the guard with orders to release the witnesses, I turn to my brothers.

"There were three. Cathy, Farrow and another. We need to talk to Marcus and hopefully he can tell us something further. Keep your mind links open and above everything, don't trust anyone!" I'm getting to the bottom of this come hell or high water and whoever is behind it all better beware; I'm gonna release hell upon all of them.

"Marcus you must know something. Some hiding place or destination that Farrow would have taken them to." We're all in the main office, with the exclusion of Malik his with Zada trying find a clue, drilling Marcus for the last four damn hours. He's claiming he doesn't know shit but I don't believe him. Beyond tired, frustrated, and completely at a loss, we're all losing our grip.

Marcus sits with his hands on his head, he's been crying like the pussy he is! I'm fighting the very urge to extend my claws out and shred this fucker to pieces. Whatever Talon saw in him I just can't fathom.

"I don't know anything, I swear, if I did I would have told you by now!" Over and over with the same bullshit the man deserves a damn Oscar.

"I don't buy it. He is your mate, you have to know something. Did he even mention a word to you?" Lucias screams out at him his demon is on the surface.

Grabbing my chest; I feel a pain that I can only describe as, devastating. It compresses my muscles around my heart sending me to my very knees. Yelling out, I also hear my brothers screams along with mine. A wave of dizziness hits me hard, I can barely breath, then everything in the room fades away.

•••••

A light flickers beyond my eyelids waking me from my darkness. My hearing comes alert first, the sounds of my parents voices are taunting. Opening my eyes, my head pounds along with my chest. The pain is slowly abating. Hands grab me under my arms to raise me from the carpeted floor.

Standing albeit a bit ungracefully, I stumble off to my side. My father Parker catches me before I was able to fall over. He sits me in my seat behind the desk, my hands gravitate to my head. The resounding pain is beginning to ease up a bit, I raise my head up searching for the others. My eyes land on my brothers that seem to be in my same predicament. Their hands go straight to their heads all groaning out. My parents with worried looks upon their faces; all helping us the best they can. In the corner stands Marcus and Frank. Malik lays on the back couch, his eyes are red and unfocused. What the hell happened?

"Im sorry Baron, this is all my fault." Marcus pleads as he walks up to me, I have no idea what he's talking about; but the sadness on his face has me doing a double take at him.

"What are you taking about? What the hell happened?" Closing my eyes to fight the dizziness that is thankfully fading.

"It was Farrow. He..." Marcus pauses his words looking at us all, stressed, he starts to fidget. "Must of took things to far." Marcus whispers out. I'm so confused by his mannerisms.

"What Marcus? Spit it out! What did he do?" Standing with my hands on my desk, seeing the anger on my face, Marcus flinches.

"He must have assaulted her." He whimpers out with desperation. I couldn't of heard him right. What?

That's what we all felt when we all collapsed in unison? I can't seem to fathom exactly what Marcus is saying. My ears start to ring.

"What do you mean?" Brack now stands along with Lucias, they both come to Marcus side. My parents gasp as if suddenly they understood what he is saying.

"He raped her." Barely catching his words, I stumble back, comprehension finally engulfs me. What the fuck? How could he?

The destruction I will reign down upon Farrow will be his undoing.

In retaliation, of what his mate and Talon did to him, he assaulted Miracle, he deserves nothing other than death. And I will gladly give it to him!

"You're lying!" Lucias can't seem to except Marcus's explanation. He's raging out. I'm frozen where I stand, Ice is running through my very veins. The pain and suffering she has to endure because of Marcus and Talons dalliance has my blood pressure rising.

Hearing a crack I break out of my trance, Malik is on top of Marcus slamming his fist in his face repeatedly. Mom screams in the background, my fathers race to separate them. Through all the commotion I'm seething where I stand, watching Frank while he stays in the corner. Seeing the look he's giving has me questioning that he knows more than what we think.

Yenna yells out at all of us while my fathers separated Malik and Marcus. Never taking my eyes off of Frank I watch as he tries to step around them and tries quietly leaving. I block him from exiting; standing in front of the door, the look on his face is pure terror.

"What do you know?" Hearing my words everyone comes to a standstill, paralyzed in their places.

Frank looks all around then back to me, combing his fingers through his hair he sighs and unloads his secrets.

"I know who has them and where!" Hearing his declaration Zada grabs his arms and turns him to face him.

"Who?" He growls out at his long time friend of years. Anger flowing through him.

I think I know exactly who!
It's time for Dysenix to come out and play!
