Page 523 of Chaos has a Name
Instead of a fight, they got him flown out immediately after, and Saint Michael of the Blackhawks was on his way to not only heal more in Scotland, but to also heal his heart.
She hoped.
Graham had no idea what was about to walk into that castle, and neither did Michael.
Oops.
Her bad.
And the rest of the people who had been involved in this?
Well, Rayna took her father to the medical center to get him checked out, and she didn’t come back.
Oh, and that freaked Caspian out. At first, she had to talk him off the ledge. Once she explained that the woman likely couldn’t bear seeing him leave, he owned that he’d not told her.
Well, BINGO.
Why were men so difficult?
When Caspian put his faith in her, the smile came back, and Elizabeth knew they’d be okay. Another baby bird, of the Marine kind, was leaving the nest.
God.
She was going to miss him too. Uriel had been their longest Archangel, and someone she’d come to love. Only, as a ‘mother’, you had to let them go.
And she was.
Rayna Running Wolf had better treat him right.
Wasn’t she in for a shock?
Hopefully, it ended well, and Cupid hadn’t missed her mark. She didn’t want two Archangels with broken hearts.
It was too bad they were leaving because Elizabeth wouldn’t be able to watch it all unfold.
Next up was the official paperwork for her son. Elizabeth had signed off on it. Takoda was about to be a Marine working to protect her—on paper.
In actuality, she’d be taking care of him as she imparted all of the years of knowledge into him.
Hell.
MATE couldn’t be the only keeper of the secrets in her head, now could she?
Her son had made up his mind, and he wanted in.
So, she’d give him a way. She’d ride him hard, put him away wet—just like Gabe did to her all of those years ago. In ten years, he’d be able to take up the mantle.
And she’d be able to retire.
Maybe.
Time would tell.
Later that night, they all ate dinner together, and she’d told her family—including the kids, that they were heading home.
There were tears, mostly from Wyler that night. Not because of the going home, but because Wyler was inundated with grandkids.
That was when it happened.
