Chapter 138 - Atlas

The self-declared prince was looking at me with wide, shocked eyes.

"I'm guessing Princey Pants here doesn't get talked to that way very often, Atty," Asher said with a chuckle down the mental link.

"Obviously not," Saint said.

Prince Alok turned, completely disregarding us men, and talked to the empty area of the roof. "Goddess, we have been waiting for the portals to open for almost one hundred years. Why have you kept them shut to us? Have we offended you in some way?" His shimmering cheeks were burnt with red as his tricolored eyes glinted in the early afternoon sun.

"You might as well unmask yourself, Kiema and Scarlet. We know you're not behind us…where you're supposed to be," Taryk said out loud, his voice clipped and harsh.

I smiled again, glad neither of these two troublemakers were my mates. Thank Gaia for small favors.

Kiema and Scarlet popped into view.
