carried her off like a caveman. But Izzy was finding her control and though as soon as they were done she would be off to find Bain, she no longer felt the needed to find him in bed... Well, she always liked finding Bain in bed, but the feedings were getting easier.
    “Were you in the Human World this morning?” Makyle asked as they sat on the pale settee.
    “Yeah, Kale dragged us out last night.”
    Maklye nodded. “And how is young Kale?”
    Izzy arched her brow. It was an odd question. Makyle never asked about the warriors. “He’s ok. Bain said he’s fighting demons.” Izzy shrugged. “There’s still a lot I don’t know about the brothers.”
    “Kale’s demons run deep,” Makyle said softly.
    “What do you know?” Izzy asked, a small amount of suspicion bleeding into her tone.
    Makyle smiled. “I know that things in Kale’s past are not what they seem, and somehow they remain hidden even from Cree.”
    Izzy smirked. “Cryptic as always, Makyle.”
    Makyle’s head dipped as he sliced his wrist and held it out to Izzy. “Let’s worry about your future right now. Kale’s will play out as it was foreseen.”
    Izzy shook her head and took Makyle’s wrist in her palm to lift it to her lips. She wanted answers about Kale. She wanted to know what caused that haunted look in his deep eyes. The look that broke her heart when she’d glimpse it… He was good at hiding it most of the time but she’d still seen it more then she cared to admit. Kale was like a brother and she worried about him, but Makyle wouldn’t be providing any answers today.

Chapter Eight
     
     
    Lucas closed the door to one of Hawk’s Eye conference rooms, closing himself, Kale, Uriah, and an unhappy Trevan inside.
    “Are you going to talk to us or do we need to disturb Rowan to get answers from you?” Kale asked, taking a trick from Bain’s playbook and flipping his chair backward to straddle it.
    It gave the impression that Kale was unbothered by the events of the morning. But it was quite the contrary. Too much was going on. He’d followed a Succubus last night that had a Trow as a bodyguard, he learned from a Brownie that a Succubus was helping those who’d escaped the Middle World—through the Drifters portal—to get settled in the Human World, and now on top of all that he had to worry about the Fae holding one of their more valuable positions in the Human World. Who had admitted he was working with a Succubus. It seemed all roads led to Succubi .
    Kale was at odds. Based on what he’d been told, whoever these Succubi were, they seemed to be helping those in need.
    However, based on his personal experience, and granted that was with one Succubus… he didn’t trust them. It sounded unjust, even in his own mind. He didn’t trust the entire species based on a bad experience with one. He was taking more than a seating position from Bain’s book; he was seeing Succubi like Bain saw Vampires. Kale focused his thoughts and started in on Trevan.
    Trevan sat in one of the hard, utilitarian-style conference chairs. He had a feeling the chair was designed to make him uncomfortable—the three men hovering in the room added to the unpleasant ambiance. But uncomfortable or not, he really didn’t want Rowan brought in on this.
    “No,” Trevan answered. “I’ll answer any questions you have.”
    “Good, let’s start with the Succubus. Who is she?”
    “She was a prisoner of Darion’s. I met one of his guards when I was searching for my sister. He told me the story about Darion’s obsession with Succubi .”
    “What kind of obsession?” Uriah asked, taking the words right out of Kale’s mouth.
    “Seems even the Dark leader has a vice, only his is his consort of Succubi . His guard told me a story about a group of Succubi he let escape. It landed him in the dungeons until he was able to escape and pass through the portal you’ve been searching for.”
    “So he knows where the Drifters’ portal is?”
    “No, the
