dearly love to make sure Kyra is no longer suffering before leaving.” The Element in Kyra had revolted, and she had gotten sick right after the Reapers had left. Marcus was concerned for her health.
    Arguing ensued at his statement. Then, “Thank you for checking on me, Marcus. I truly appreciate it,” Kyra said appearing in front of Marcus.
    More swearing from the room as Marcus stepped aside the door was thrown open, and Ryder stormed out. Coming nose to nose with Kyra, “I said no.”
    Kyra rolled her eyes and looked over her mates shoulder to Marcus. “He thinks that’s going to stop me,” Ryder growled.
    Marcus directed his next question to Ryder. “What are you going to do to protect her?”
    Ryder threw his hands in the air and turned to Marcus. “At this moment I have no idea. She is just as much a part of this as you are. But I will not put her in harm’s way.”
    Kyra wrapped her arms around Ryder from behind. He was so broad her hands didn’t touch, but her hug seemed to calm him. “I opened that box, Ryder. I can’t run from it.”
    “Where are you headed first?” Ryder asked.
    “Victor gave us a couple of leads,” Marcus explained. “There is a Guarded Touched in Australia and another in New Orleans. Those are the only two we currently know about. After that we will have to have more information.
    Marcus felt helpless. They couldn’t have said no even if they had wanted to, and Dante knew it. It made Marcus want to strangle the deity’s neck.
    Marcus pulled a piece of paper from his pocket he and Falcon had made. “There is a family in Wyoming. The women have passed the touch down from generation to generation. Dante is waiting for something to come of it. He also wants to send someone out to look for the Dagger.”
    “We can do that,” Kyra said, still behind Ryder. Her excitement obvious as she bounced like a child in a candy store from foot to foot.
    “No,” Ryder muttered. But he had a resigned look on his face. “We should set the Enforcers up to find the Dagger, they would have more luck finding an object then we would.”
    Kyra huffed a deep breath and threw her hands in the air. “You take all the fun away,” she muttered to her mate who only rolled his eyes.
    “Dante is a sick bastard,” Ryder snarled. “His Touched are in danger, and all he wants is his revenge on Calliope.”
    “Sick doesn’t begin to encompass who and what he is, although he is correct. If we do nothing, then Calliope will tear the walls down between the mortal realm and the Infernos and ultimately between hell proper and our world.” Marcus shook his head. “Humanity will be destroyed.”
    “You need to stay here and coordinate. Get the Druids to bless the house and everything between here and the Haven,” Marcus said to Kyra.
    She stomped her foot and both Ryder and Marcus knew that wasn’t a good sign. “I am a fighter, just because I don’t have a—” Ryder covered her mouth with his hand.
    “Do you really want to finish that sentence, Blue?”
    Her eyes narrowed, but when Ryder moved his hand her mouth was closed. “And what about you?” she asked Marcus.
    “I am going to find those Touched with Guardians. They are the ones in the most danger. Guardians are like beacons. If Calliope knows what to look for, then there is no way we will be able to keep the souls from him. He will take them and with the aid of the Dagger he will storm the Infernos.”
    “Do you honestly think bringing them all to one place is a good idea?” Ryder asked.
    Marcus didn’t have a single idea at the moment which sounded like a good idea or not one was as good and because he honestly thought he was throwing knives in the dark at this point.
    “I don’t have any other ideas. Why don’t you come up with something while I’m on my way to Australia?” Marcus said.
    “Please tell me you didn’t agree to work with that She Demon?” Kyra asked incredulous.
    Marcus sighed. “I wasn’t really given a
