doubt, and I silently wept for him, Trevor, Stellan and my son.

    "She was wounded?" Stellan looked as if he wanted to rip something or someone apart.
    I didn't tell him she'd died. Somehow, the Larentii had managed to heal her body and hold it in stasis while waiting for her to return to it. Ashe had gone home, leaving explanations to me.
    "She was wounded. Severely," I acknowledged.
    "Lissa, what is her condition?" Trevor had remained silent for the most part, but I could tell he was seething; he just wasn't exhibiting outward signs.
    "She is very weak. The Larentii helped heal her body, but the damage took a toll. She was only awake for around two hours today. We're hoping she's better tomorrow."
    "I never received a message from her," Kooper had gone through his comp-vid twice, searching. There'd been nothing. I knew Gavin had deleted it, but all three who sat in front of me in my study were upset that they'd gotten nothing from Breanne for months. I'd explained that she'd attempted a message to Kooper.
    "Gavin, as you know, prevented contact," I began. "But that has since been rescinded."
    "I hope Gavin has been reprimanded," Stellan hissed.
    "Gavin is sorry for his behavior," I explained. "He was affected—as were others—by something beyond his control. He admits he mistreated Breanne, and hopes for a better relationship now."
    "Has someone else taken over her education? What about Casimir? I heard she was engaged to him—without her consent." Trevor wasn't just seething—he was about to reveal claws and fangs. That wasn't a good thing.
    "Trevor, that engagement was a sham and I recognized it as such. That has also been rescinded. Breanne is free to choose her own mates. As for her education, let's say that it has been completed. If Breanne needs further instruction, Adam Chessman or I will supply it."
    "I'm satisfied with Chessman," Trevor leaned back in his chair. He knew, just as I did, that my education had never been completed, either. In his vampire opinion, anyway.
    "Look, I may be able to get you to SouthStar tomorrow to see her," I said.
    "I don't want to see her. I want to stay with her. Protect her while she's down," Kooper said. "I have plenty of time, and frankly, Norian owes me—and Breanne."
    "I have time as well," Trevor said.
    "I'm taking off, whether Teeg says it's all right or not," Stellan added.
    "He'll agree," I nodded at Stellan.
    "Yeah. He's been a lot better lately. More approachable. No idea what changed, but I don't think it'll be a problem."
    "He and Breanne are friends now, I think," I said. "He won't mistreat her, I know that much. He owes her too much."
    "Definitely," Stellan agreed. "Where should we meet tomorrow? I'll have my bags packed and ready to go."
    "Meet me here; I'll have to tell the people at SouthStar you're coming."

    "There's enough room," Ashe raked fingers through his hair when I broke the news to him. "And I probably owe her that. I just don't want to scare Kay, if she happens to see them in the house."
    "Why don't you go ahead and ask Breanne to read her, so you'll know what you're dealing with?" I suggested.
    "Yeah. I guess we could do that, and maybe it'll help Kevis. It might be better if Bill or Trajan asks her," Ashe sighed.
    "True. She cares for both of them," I agreed. "If she needs anything, let me know. Gavin has placed money in an account for her."
    "Lissa, I can handle anything Breanne might need, as can Trajan and Bill," Ashe replied with a smile. "Tell Gavin to invest for Breanne, so she'll be taken care of in the future."
    "I'll see to it," I said. "Will Trajan come to Le-Ath Veronis tomorrow?"
    "He'll be there," Ashe nodded.

    Breanne's Journal
    Something tickled my chin, waking me to sunlight shining through a bedroom window. The suite I'd been given at SouthStar was quite large, as it turned out, with a separate sitting area, a vidscreen, the huge bath I'd seen the day before and an enormous closet space with an island in the
