“I’m not sure Hawk has claimed her, but yes.When Spyder and Charlie were attacked at her floral shop, Wynter shifted and took a bullet meant for Charlie.Ace was there, and he happens to be free at the moment, so I’ll get him and Ripper headed that direction.”
“Thanks, Brother.Get them on the road ASAP.”
“Will do.Be careful, Kayos.If what you said about this Dennis Alpha is true, he’s not going to let Nikita go without a fight if he gets his hands on her before you do.”
“I’m not worried about him.I’m a Gryphon.”Kyllian said his goodbyes, but instead of heading toward the gate, he waited on the porch since he could hear Trenton’s SUV.Trenton stopped and let the females out before driving on to the garage.
“I’ve got the three of us on the 6:20 flight.It connects in New Baltimore,” Quinn announced.Kyllian didn’t have to be her mate to feel her trepidation.
Reaching out, he took her hand.“Are you going to be okay?”
“I have to be, don’t I?This is my daughter.I didn’t abandon her, Kyllian.She was stolen from me.And I guess I should have gone looking for her when I was older, but I didn’t want to disrupt her life.If I had known...”Quinn looked up, blinking back tears.Kyllian pulled her into his arms, wrapping her in a tight embrace.
“Shh.None of that.We’ll find her, then you can tell her the truth of what really happened.”Kyllian pressed his lips to Quinn’s temple, inhaling her scent.His Gryphon rumbled with appreciation.
“What are you?”Mercy asked Kyllian as soon as Quinn stepped back so she could wipe her eyes.
Kyllian didn’t want to tell the female about Gryphons.Not yet.She had been truthful up to that point, but he didn’t know her.The sound of motorcycle engines had the four of them turning toward the sound.“Are you sure you weren’t followed?”
“I wasn’t.I swear,” Mercy vowed.
“Trenton, take the females inside.Quinn, go pack whatever you’re taking.”Kyllian urged.He waited until the three of them were in the house before jogging toward the gate.Stepping into the cover of trees, Kyllian quickly stripped, shifted to his Eagle, and took to his wings.
