Shelby's P.O.V

Liam dragged someone in. "He wanted to see you," he said.

I put my journal down. Sometimes I forget that Liam was a child, through all of this. 'You made him this way. He'll grow up to be so strong... so brutal.'

"Thank you Liam, you may go," I said.

Liam left the room, pulling the door shut behind him. "What, Tim?" I asked.

Tim started fiddling with his green shirt. "I know where your friends are. They've taken what I have. What I had. And there was a dead girl, a-" 

"Dead girl?!"

"Yeah. She was a ghost, short with short hair, made a breeze everywhere she went."

'How is Jess alive?!'

'She was killed in Life's chamber... oh, we've made a mistake!'

"Tim? I appreciate the information, but you're nothing to me without your little... crew. Tell me where they are, and I just may spare your life," I said.

Tim kept his mouth shut. "Tim? Tell me."

"You'll hurt my friends!"

"I don't give a crap! Tell me where they are. I don't want your friends. I want the FAE. And where Jess is, they'll be. If Jess is still roaming this realm..."

Tim looked me in the eye. "I'm not telling," he huffed.

I smiled. "You really wanna be that way?" I asked.

"I-I..."

"Your life is on the line. As soon as I see your crew, I'll kill them, I'll harm everything you've ever had, what you will have. Unless you tell me where they are."

Tim sighed. "There's this cave. It's somewhere not far from here, and it's decorated with paintings and crystals. I-I... I can take you there."

I grinned. "Please, do."
