Unu when we broadcast. Cross, all your men have combat training. I
want you to be prepared to train up volunteers. Madigan, you ll be
expected to learn how to use your powers as well. They might be key
in turning the tide in the upcoming war.
War. That s what this is leading to. Open battle. Bloodshed. The
things they d been avoiding in the months they d been with Madigan
were suddenly quite literally on their doorstep. It chilled Cross to
think about Madigan fighting alongside them. He was a treasure, an
object to be protected from even the least harmful of distresses. He
swallowed. We want the utmost protection for Madigan. I want you
to train him personally, Daisis. I want him the most prepared he
possibly can be.
Done. You teach him weaponry. I will teach him to master his
powers, Daisis agreed. Cross thought the agreement would create
some closure for him, but it didn t. It only solidified the knowledge
that Madigan would be in immediate danger soon. His mind took him
back to the first time he laid eyes on Madigan and the sheer terror he
had felt at busting into the small apartment above his lover s bakery

and finding Madigan surrounded by hunters. The smell of sweat, fear,
and burning furniture had overwhelmed everything else. The sight of
heavenly swords burning through everything they touched had made
Cross afraid that he d come too late.
So we can have a wedding this weekend? Michel asked. He
sounded tentative, unsure. Cross thought the wedding was a terrible
idea given the circumstances, but who was he to deny even a moment
of happiness for his lovers? He would deal with his anxiety over the
issue the same way he dealt with everything, quietly.
Cross? Bren asked, obviously asking his opinion. Cross
swallowed. Everything was happening really fast.
We ll discuss it at home, Madigan interjected. This isn t
something we need to discuss here. I think the whole hunter thing was
enough. Daisis, it was nice to meet you and your husbands. Even
Cross heard the good-bye in his words. He was taking control of the
situation, and it was a wonderful, frightening, and strange thing.
Formation on the way out, gents. Cross heard himself say as his
lovers pushed themselves to their feet and started toward the door. At
least I still remember how to be a commander. It was all very surreal.
Relax, red, Madigan quipped, bumping his hips as they crowded
onto the elevator. I m really okay. Everything is going to be all
right.
Cross looked down at him and fell into his green eyes. Yeah?
Have you seen the future? It wasn t necessarily a common skill in
Raphael s choir, but it wasn t unheard of.
Madigan leaned his head against Cross s shoulder. No. I just
know. Good triumphs over evil, right? That s how the heavens roll.
I don t know about all that, Yuri muttered, looking morose.
The hunters believe they re right just as much as we do.
Madigan huffed as the elevator dinged, announcing their arrival to
the ground floor. Then we ll just have to change their minds. I
haven t come this far, struggled this much, and loved this hard only to

lose it all in a week. We re going to live, guys. There are no other
options.
Cross prayed.

Chapter Five
I m going to fuck you stupid, Madigan declared as Michel
finished laying out the last table cloth they would be using in the
reception. The custom table tops that Madigan had ordered wouldn t
have been ready for weeks, but Michel had managed to get some that
were nearly identical locally.
Michel offered him a grin. I will take you up on that, nephilim.
I m all for being rewarded for my efforts. Though the conversation
was joking, lust reared up inside of him at the thought. Nephilim
hungers were always sharp, but today it seemed especially so for
whatever reason.
Christian had gone downtown with some of the guys to pick up
things for the wedding, Bren was having a Halo showdown with
Becka and Daniella downstairs since they were all addicted to the
game, and Michel had been helping him get everything organized to
take to the park so that he would know exactly where everything was.
