have no idea who we could ask about this. I wish they were back already, maybe Zander has some answers.”
    A knock at the door interrupted their conversation. “Please don’t say anything to anyone until we talk some more,” Cailyn begged Elsie, as Orlando peeked his head into the room, his gaze going straight to her sister. Cailyn held Elsie’s gaze, and was relieved when she nodded minutely.
    “Hey, O. What’s up?” Elsie asked, turning to the Dark Warrior. His white-blond hair was sticking out in every direction. Cailyn had to admit the guy was good looking, but paled in comparison to the sexy sorcerer. From the moment she’d met Jace, he had become the standard against which she judged all others.
    “Just wanted to come and check on you guys. How are you feeling, Cai?”
    “I’ve had better days. I wish the pain would go away. I have no energy for anything, and between the two I can barely function, but Jace and Zander will be back soon with the cure.” She had to believe that they were going to bring something back with them to help her. She refused to accept that this spell was going to kill her.
    “You both need to be prepared that they may not have the answers you want. The Fae are fickle fucks and not likely to help. But we won’t give up. We will all search every corner of the realm for a way to lift the spell,” he promised, sitting on the bed next to Elsie.
    “I’m so sorry, Cai. This is all my fault. You would be safe at home if it wasn’t for me,” Elsie whispered.
    Before Cailyn could respond, Orlando interjected. “You can’t blame yourself. As you have learned, no one is safe from the ravages of this war,” Orlando replied solemnly. Cailyn knew Elsie better than to think his words placated her.
    Another knock echoed throughout the room. “Hey Chiquita, Cai, you both look beat. Is my partner bugging you again?” Santiago asked entering the room with grim purpose. The lines set into his face told her something was up. She said a silent prayer that Jace and Zander were okay. She didn’t know if she could take any more bad news right now. He and Orlando were homicide detectives with Seattle Police Department, as well as Dark Warriors, and she hated how she hoped it was a human issue on his mind.
    “What’s going on? Have you heard from Zander or Jace?” Elsie asked sitting up.
    “I haven’t heard anything from them. Here, I brought you one of those energy drinks that you love. I figured you could use a pick me up. O, I need to talk to you about a call I got from the Lieutenant.” The obvious tension in Santiago’s voice had Cailyn chomping at the bit as to what he had to say.
    Something was up and she wanted to hear what it was, but she didn’t have the relationship that her sister did with these formidable warriors. Cailyn was still intimidated by their presence, especially these two. Orlando was a feline shifter and she had seen him shift into a rather large snow leopard during the battle outside Confetti. Santiago was a canine shifter and she watched him become a huge wolf. Seeing them become wild animals coupled with the archdemon, Kadir, who looked like an incarnation of the devil, made for some of her most frightening moments.
    “Be right back—”
    Her sister’s terse response cut Orlando off. “You cannot waltz in here sounding all serious and keep me in the dark, Santi. You guys can have this conversation right here. I’m the queen and I won’t be left out of anything.”
    “It’s not that we want to leave you out, Chiquita. This is official police business and there is no need to worry you over things unnecessarily.”
    “If this has to do with the Tehrex Realm, then it is my business.” Cailyn’s chest swelled with pride in her baby sister. She had come into her own, standing up to such fierce warriors.
    Orlando chuckled, “She schooled you, bro. Is this about more skirm attacks on women?”
    “Yes and there’s been another one,” Santiago relayed
