He held up a hand. “There were some injuries, but Ivan and Cinna brought in their healers to help. And Ivan healed some of the shifters himself.”

My brows lifted. “Cinna?”

Amusement played on Knox’s lips. “Apparently that was one of the calls Ivan made. He told her if she wanted to know the truth to show up at the mountain. She couldn’t resist the challenge.”

“And when she saw what Kaleb was doing, she and her enforcers fought along with us,” Caspian said.

“Never thought I’d be thankful for her,” I muttered.

“Me neither,” Anson echoed.

I lifted my gaze to Knox. “Your dad?”

The smile that lit his face put me at ease. He squeezed my leg. “He’s home. Thanks to Ivan’s guards, the worst abuse he got was on his way to the prison. I’m

rying to get him to take it easy, but of course, he refuses.”

Caspian tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “It’s good he feels up to a challenge because Abigail has been pestering him to let her see you since we brought

you back.”

‘She’s okay?”

Caspian nodded. “Jumpy, but physically, she’s fine. Her mind will ease with time.”

‘Especially knowing all of Kaleb’s enforcers and those who fought with him are imprisoned now,” Anson added.

My jaw hardened. “What happens to them?”

‘A trial,” Knox explained. “They will be tried as a group as soon as new members of the Quad have been chosen.”

‘Members?”

River grinned. “Gregor hightailed it to somewhere in Europe, but apparently, he left before he paid the rogues that he and Kaleb hired to kidnap those girls. Sengues don’t take kindly to those who don’t pay their debts.”

Pretty sure they’ll be finding pieces of him all over Russia for the next fifty years,” Caspian muttered.

couldn’t find it in me to be sorry about that. “They found the girls?”

Knox nodded. “They’re safe with family in other packs now.”

telief swamped me, but on its heels, confusion rose. “I still don’t understand why Gregor was helping Kaleb.”

The guys shared a look, but it was Caspian who spoke. “One of his enforcers came forward to Ivan and Cinna. Apparently, Gregor was helping Kaleb pieces in place to return to a monarchy, but he planned for an unfortunate accident to take him out at the last minute.”

So he could become king,” I surmised.

‘Instead, he’s fleshy confetti thanks to a bunch of rogues,” Anson said with a little too much glee.

[ scrunched up my nose. “Gross.”

Caspian smacked Anson on the back of the head. “Let’s not make her nauseated, okay?”

Vaughn wove his fingers through mine. “How do

you

feel?”

I did a mental inventory. “Stiff, a little sore, but fine.”

Doubt filled Vaughn’s expression, but under that, I saw worry and fear. I sat up, leaning towards him. I lifted my hands to his face. “Hey, I’m fine. I promise.”

“You maxed yourself out,” he growled.

“And then you replenished me. It’s how this works.”

He scowled. “You’re never doing that again. It was too much power for one person to wield.”

“It wasn’t one person. It was six. The only way that was possible was through all of us.” My thumbs stroked over his stubbled cheeks. “Balance. But I need to get used to being a vessel for it all.”

“I don’t like it-”

I cut him off with a kiss. If Vaughn wouldn’t believe my words, maybe he would believe my actions. My tongue stroked his, silently reassuring him that I was

okay.

He growled into my mouth and then tore his lips away. “You need to rest.”

My brow quirked. “Do I?”

Anson chuckled. “I like where your mind is at.”
