      Dedication

      Thanks to Totally Bound for giving me the opportunity to try a serial. It’s been a blast. Thanks to my readers who are always ready to come out and show their support for my work. My heartfelt thanks to y’all!

      To my husband who is my rock, always there no matter what comes.

      Chapter Thirteen

      Lian strode through the training room then down a set of stairs along the far wall, hidden by a long bamboo screen he had designed it so no one would know it was there. Unless, of course, they knew where to look. On the next level, he paused before a panel embedded in the stone and typed in a code, causing the wall to drop back and vanish to the left.

      He walked with determination by the numerous tables and stands of weapons to a large archway, where he paused before continuing on through to the gigantic workspace behind. The one he sought pounded away, working metal into the shape he wanted.

      Inaki.

      The eight-foot creature stopped immediately and stared across the room at him, his unique orangey-yellow eyes focused directly on Lian. Everything about Inaki was huge. Everything. His face had a nasty scar running diagonally from right to left, which only added to the fearful display he portrayed. Inaki was a creature from Hell, one who Lian had saved when he was still young. The two, despite their vast differences, had become friends. When Inaki had needed to hide from the others who’d wanted to kill him, he’d come to Lian who had been sheltering him since.

      Lian. His deep bass voice echoed through the room.

      Inaki reached into the forge with a pair of tongs and shifted something around. His leather apron covered his otherwise bare chest. The sparks jumping from the flames and landing on unprotected skin didn’t even make him flinch. Lian hadn’t any clue why he wore it, for he knew the fire, even as hot as the flames were—and they were from the pits of Hell themselves—couldn’t hurt Inaki.

      Ala? Lian didn’t beat around the bush. There was no point—Lana had told him what Ala had said about her doing it for Inaki. Lian had to know if there would be an issue.

      My wife, or so she’d be called nowadays. He moved to a table, red hot metal in his hand, and
