A Forever Series Box Set: A Paranormal Reverse Harem-(Book 6-10)

Chapter 2

Buckinghamshire, England, 2013 – Constantine

“Let go of me!” Constantine snaps at the creature that has just left Aefre to rot in that disgusting cell. “You go back for her right now.”

“I can’t,” he says. “One in, only one out.”

“Then take me back, she doesn’t belong in there.”

“No, sorry. She made the deal.”

He growls in frustration and then turns to Sebastian, who is hovering. “How could you let her make such a deal?”

“Where is she?” Sebastian asks, the fear creeping off him and hitting Constantine hard. “Why did she not come back with you?”

“I knew it!” Xane says. “I knew you couldn’t be trusted. You caved too easily. What have you done with her?”

“She stayed in her sire’s place as I could only bring one of the

m back,” Remiel says.

“Which you knew all along. I will kill you myself for this,” Xane says, stepping closer to him.

“You could try. You would fail, but you could try,” Remiel taunts.

“Enough!” Constantine barks at them. “None of this is helping. We need to get her back before Drake gets his hands on her.”

“Who is Drake?” Devon asks, as he and Cole enter the library. Constantine glares at them both, wishing that neither of them existed and that she was just his.

He remains silent, as do all the others.

“Erm, hello? Anybody going to answer the question? Who is Drake and why is Lizzie not here?” Devon asks again.

He turns to face them, looking forward to dropping this bombshell as clearly, they are also in the dark about her father. He loves his beloved so, but she can be so secretive. “Drake is her father. Her Dark Fae King father,” he states, and he has a momentary satisfaction of seeing their shock. It is short lived, though, when he remembers that she is there and not here with him.

“Come again?” Devon asks. “You mean she found her father?”

“What is a Dark Fae?” Cole asks.

Constantine explains the situation briefly, leaving out the part about Sebastian. He is still furious with him and his part in all of this. His betrayal hurts worse than hers, but he will protect him no matter what.

“You mean she is stuck there?” Cole yells as he finishes. “You traded her for your own freedom?”

“Of course not!” he snaps, highly offended. “She had this creature take me out on a deal she struck before I could stop her.”

“This creature has a name,” Remiel says, just as irate as he is.

“You may leave. Seeing as your services are completely useless, there is no need for you to be here,” Constantine tells him.

“There is no need to be rude. I did as she asked, I brought you home,” Remiel says huffily.

“You should have left me there and brought her home.”

“He was killing you. Of course, she was going to send you back. Even I know her sense of loyalty is at its strongest with regard to you.”

“He wasn’t killing me. I cannot die,” he says and turns to face Remiel completely now, getting pissed off with his attitude.

“Well, it looked like it from where we were standing, that is why she made the deal. She is sure that her father won’t treat her in the same manner.”
