CEDRIC POV
ONE WEEK LATER
I woke up to an empty bed at the Dragon Lair after mating and loving each other last night, making up for the time we had been out of Sith Castle. We had come back to Sith Castle and then had to deal with all the matters of the coven council. With Bloodriver's death, Belladonna was escorted back to Elisera as per Bloodriver's last wishes. Now that evil had been eradicated, Niko had requested Kieran and the commanders to go back to Iona and maintain the peace and close relations with Sith Mountain.
Niko, Silas, and Talon were nowhere in sight as I stretched my tired body and dragged myself off the bed that Niko had finally managed to prepare in the Dragon Lair. I guessed he had tasked Duchess Lenora to clean up the Liar and make it into a royal chamber. I had never actually explored the Lair as we never had time to do so.
