As her vision cleared, Freya's eyes darted across the scene.
Armed guards stood stationed nearby, and she quickly scanned her surroundings.
Only then did it hit her.
The entire island was crawling with Brendan's guards in black.
A chilling thought seized her.
Her friends must not come.
Brendan had deployed so many men across the island that even if her friends showed up, it wouldn't make a

A small handful of them couldn't possibly take on hundreds of armed guards without being noticed. And knowing

Still, the team hesitated. “Why?” they asked in unison.
“There's trouble on Butterfly Island. Without equipment, it’s too risky. Wait in Alerith.” Ellis’s voice was calm, but
