“My Claire,” he breathed.
“My Exos,” I agreed, smiling against him. “You can take me anywhere you want. You know that.”
“I do, but it’s nice to have your cooperation for once.”
I smiled. “A lot changed while you were gone.”
“I can see that,” he mused as he tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, his finger running up the pointed tip that still felt so foreign to me. “I approve.”
“Good.” I tugged his lower lip into my mouth. “Because I like
the new me. I feel stronger. More in control.”
“And that will only continue to grow, Claire.” He pressed his forehead to mine. “You have no idea what destiny is laid out before you, but I’ll help you in every way I can. We all will.”
“That sounds ominous.”
“It is,” he whispered. “More than you know.”
“So tell me.”
He sighed, one palm cupping my cheek while the other clasped my hip to keep me balanced between him and the wall. “It’s your mother, Claire.”
“I know what she’s done, but I won’t make the same mistakes.” I felt it deep in my core that I could never betray my mates the way my mother had done with her own.
“No. Not that.” His blue eyes took on a serious quality, his grip tightening. “Your mother…” He paused, sighing. “Your mother is the one who tried to kill you with dark magic. She’s also the one who used Mortus as a puppet to capture me.”
My lips parted. “But she’s dead.” Which sounded like a ridiculous statement considering what he just said. Except, everyone told me… My eyes widened. “Elana said a body was never found.”
He nodded. “Because there wasn’t one to find.”
Holy fae… “My mother’s alive.”
