watered instantly. “Trever, you can’t be serious. You know what the talk of peace does to people. There’s a chance that something could go wrong and you could be killed.”
    “Why does everyone assume that about me? I can handle myself just fine.”
    “Well, why should you have to go? It could take months! There’s no reason for doing something this foolish! You want to join Ryon and Kole that badly?”
    I laughed honestly. “That’s not it and I won’t be alone. There’s obviously going to be a company traveling with me. I’ll be protected to an extent but I have to go because I’m second to the King.”
    “You are the King.”
    “No, I’m not. Not for a long time. For now it’s better that the world thinks I don’t exist.”
    “Trever—”
    “Look, Jay. I have to go. Aleks can’t do it so it has to be someone of authority that can and that’s me.” Jay fell back on the bed with tears in her eyes and was breathing heavily. I went over to her and sat next to her as Troy did the same. “Don’t start acting like you care now. You’ll be all right without me. I always knew that. I just didn’t want to believe it. You’re strong, Jay. Father would be proud.” I touched her shoulder while sharing a look with Troy then got up to walk to the door.
    “Wait!” I turned and Jay unexpectedly ran into my arms. “I’m sorry. I never meant to act so hateful toward you.”
    “I know, Jay. I only wanted the best for you and now you have it.” Jay looked over towards Troy as he got off the bed and finally smiled because she knew I was right. “But if I don’t return, there’s something you should know.”
    “Trever—”
    “Just listen.” She took a breath and let me go on. “I won’t make you wait. I’ll come to you like Ellie does.”
    Now she started to cry. “Don’t do this.”
    “You won’t be obligated to do anything. The line will end with me. You belong here.”
    “That’s not going to happen.”
    “I think I’m the one always saying that but I’m glad you’re starting to agree. Oh, and here.” I took the chain off my neck and handed the small vial of gold to her. “You take them for a while.”
    Jay looked at it, almost in shock. “Lex and Rouge? Really? Won’t you need them?”
    “I wouldn’t be able to use them around this group of people. Just keep them with you. Use them if you need to.”
    “But how—”
    “Only your blood will do it. Don’t be afraid. If you bring them, they’ll only listen to you. It’s the least I could do. Not that I don’t have full faith in Troy, I just want to guarantee that you’re protected.”
    “Okay. I’ll hang on to them until you get back.”
    “Good-bye, Jay.” We hugged again.
    “Good-bye.”
    We parted and I looked to Troy. “Take good care of my little sister, would you, Troy? You’re truly an honorable man and she deserves everything you can give.”
    I winked at him, speaking without words and Troy took my hand and we embraced. “Thank you and I will.”
    “Farewell to you both.”
    I left the room.
    “Trever?”
    I didn’t take a step down the hall before I had to turn around to Bianca’s voice. “Bee.”
    “You’re leaving?” She sounded worried.
    “I have to.”
    “But—”
    I looked around quickly and took her wrist. I pulled her into a spare room so we weren’t talking out in the hall but still spoke softly. “Everything is going to be fine. It’s the plan isn’t it?”
    “Yes, but—”
    I took her head in my hands passionately and looked her in the eye. “You don’t have to be afraid. I will come for you.”
    I kissed her and she didn’t want me to pull away but I did.
    “You drank it, right?”
    “Yes, when I gave Zayden his.”
    “Bravo on the act but was the licking thing necessary?”
    Bianca smiled and leaned in closer. “Jealous?”
    “Maybe.”
    “Think of it as payback for kissing Adele.”
    “That’s why you did it? Fair enough but speaking of her, Red confirmed Adele’s
