Ian told them that Kevin had just confronted Lilith the Goddess and creator of all demons, and he explained to them why she had tried to kill them, he also confessed that Kevin wasn't her target but that it was him.
While he was telling them everything, he was helping Liam to collect the crystals of the Elemantaries and there were a lot of them, the fact that they weren't sharing their booty with an entire sect made this treasure really priceless.
But he knew those crystals weren't what his man was interested in so once he was done telling everything that had happened, and that all the crystals were picked up, he knelt on the ground and put his two hands flat on it leaving its earth element looking for ores in the rocks that surrounded them.
Liam who after hearing that this Goddess, who had created Ian by the way, wanted to eliminate him because she could no longer use him, felt for the first time in a long time weak and powerless to protect his mate.
