CHAPTER 42

  Elena's POV

  The wolves came to invade our little party in the bayou, while my instinct made me worry, seeing the relaxed look on Cedric's face made me feel like we have got this under control.

  "Surprise! I love this." Lucindo cried in a sing-song tone.

  Suzy and I shared a glance with Hilda and Cedric and we all came together to form a fighting stance.

  "I thought I sent you on your merry way? What are you doing here?" Cedric fired at the woman.

  "Does vervain ring a bell to you? I can't be compelled because I consume that so how about you tell us why you turned our territory to a war zone?" She cocked a brow.

  "This mad man here lives in your district and he means harm to all and sundry so we came here to execute him." I pointed at Lucindo who was still gasping for air like a fish on dry land, only this time around, his eyes were mischievous and his lips quirked in amusement.
