I really hope you all enjoy this chapter I had a ton of fun writing it, I tried Azriel's point of view again and I think it went a bit better but please let me know what you think. Thank you RabidKat09 for your suggestions, I'm not sure I will get Nuala and Cerridwens story but I think I would like to do a one shot of them or a mini story maybe, and I do plan on incorporating Lucian and Vassa more into this story in the next few chapters. =)

Azriel POV

I flew home swiftly after my meeting in the winter court I needed to get this information to Rhys, I flew hard all the way to Velaris we would need to act fast. Our meeting had been swift, but I still needed to act fast on the intel incase anything happened to Torem and Plora. It was our first real lead and I wasn't about to let it go to waste.

When I could see the house, I flew for the Rhys and I saw a dark figure standing there already waiting for me, Rhys. I landed with a little grin to which Rhys' response was, "what, do I have something on my face?"

I let out a breathy chuckle and said, "no I have something much better."

Rhys grinned widely at that, "so what are you waiting for? Tell me already?"

So, I told him, I told him about Eris going of to the mortal lands and all the unease going through the Vanserra family. I could see when Rhys' face went from happy about the news to pensive about what to do next. A little twinkle was in his eye and he had a slight smirk, probably thinking about having Kier in his grasp and what he would do to him. I couldn't say I hadn't had similar thoughts to whatever as running through his mind, and I would gladly take part.

"We should go tell the others, I've already called them over for dinner, they should be here soon, but you still have a few minutes to freshen up if you would like." That was a pretty nice way of saying it, I was fairly ripe from flying so hard. I laughed a little and headed to the bathroom to "freshen up" as Rhys had called it.

I had a few clothes stashed here in a closet for this sort of thing and I grabbed them quickly before going into the bathroom. I took my short of and started to clean my self with a towel I found, I also ducked my head almost completely under the faucet, I toweled of and when I went to reach for my shirt I couldn't find. I was fairly certain that I had grabbed it meaning I had probably dropped it somewhere in the hall.

I opened the door to the bathroom and saw it on the floor right in front of the closet where it had been stored and as I went to go and retrieve it, I heard a door open just behind me. I turned around and found Elain standing behind me. I was about to ask her if she would tell me about her vision when her face turned a bright shade of red.

At this reaction from her I couldn't contain the broad smile that plastered itself onto my face, she looked like she was about to say something when I heard Mor's booming voice coming towards us. When Mor came into view, she smiled a little at the look on Elain's face and Elain just walked away with a quick "excuse me."

I was sad to see her go and I desperately wanted to know what she had been about to say, I was about to go after her to say what I didn't know but before I could go Mor grabbed my shoulder, "what no hello?" she said with a little pout on her lips.

So, I said hello and then I went back to the washroom to finish changing, I almost forgot my shirt, but Mor was gracious enough to hand it to me with a little smirk on her lips. I could tell she wanted to ask me about Elain, but I wasn't ready to discus it especially not with Mor.

Once I finished getting ready, I followed the scent of the food to the dinning room and sat at the last seat available which of course was conveniently right next to Elain. I looked up at Mor and she gave me a quick wink, and then I knew what happened in the hallway would not go under the radar, especially not with her.

We started of the meal fine but I could sense the tension in Elain as she sat next to me, our arms even bumped once and when I looked over to say a quick apology I noticed that blush again on her face, and to my dismay my face turned a little red as well. The potatoes we had been reaching for momentarily forgotten. I smiled a little reached for the spoon in the potatoes and scooped a few onto Elain's plate, she said a quickly thank you and then she stared very intently at the potatoes. I scooped a few onto my plate and did the same thing but with a little smile dancing on my lips.

When I looked up next, I looked up at Mor and raised my eyebrows at her as if to say "what?" and she just shrugged a little smile on her lips as well. I went back to my food and started listening in on a conversation Rhys was having with Cassian, probably something I should have been paying attention to the whole time.

"I don't know how many of the Illyrian camps I'll be able to call upon when the time comes." Cassian was saying.

"Well maybe it's time to inform some of our other allies on the matter, I can't imagine Kallias and Tarquin wouldn't help especially considering that they border the Autumn court." Feyre chimed in.

"Well I guess I could start to plan a little visit to call them for aid, are you sure Cassian that we won't be able to summon enough Illyrians to do this on our own." Rhys said.

"I'll keep trying but I wouldn't get your hopes up." I could tell from that one sentence that Cassian was feeling guilty about it. About not being able to command his own armies but I knew it wasn't his fault I knew how stubborn the Illyrians could be.

I knew both Rhys and Feyre saw the look on his face and where about to make a comment about it not being his fault but before either of the could say anything Nesta spoke. "It's not your fault Cassian, the only consistent thing about all you Illyrians is that your all to stubborn for your own good."

Cassian smiled a little at that and I felt the tension in the room dissipate and everyone broke out in laughter when Cassian said, "You're one to talk." Nesta turned red at the comment but she also started laughing. Cassian stared longingly at Nesta and to my surprise Nesta finally didn't seem to mind having his attention.

After that an easy chatter descended over the room again, I heard Amren talking to Rhys saying she would talk to Varian about meeting with the Summer court. I could also tell she was eager to leave; he hadn't come tonight, and I wondered if this was the longest the two of them had spent apart since Varian got to Velaris. Amren's fake exaggerated yawn fooled no one and it seemed like everyone was trying to contain their laughter when she got up and left claiming she was tired.

It wasn't long till Rhys tried to do the same as Amren looking longingly in Feyre's direction, it didn't work very well especially not with Cassian commenting on it. "Oh, I see how it is, are you tired as well Feyre." His sarcasm very evident in his voice.

"Why yes Cassian I do happen to be exhausted." Feyre said right back. I could tell Cassian was ready to say something back but before he could Rhys and Feyre fled up the stairs. We could hear them laughing the whole way.

"Graceful" was Cassians only comment.

A few minutes later Mor left saying she was meeting someone at Ritas and then Nesta and Cassian left, "at least they didn't say they were tired." Elain said shortly after their departure.

I burst out laughing and then she did too, and it sounded like a music that I could dance to forever. I asked her after a few moments about her vision and then we started talking it over going over each detail. It didn't seem like Rhys missed telling me anything and we didn't really get anything new, but it seemed like neither of us wanted to end the conversation.

I looked at the clock after a while and it was 2 in the morning, and I noticed her trying to hide her yawn. I told her I was getting tired and that we could talk more tomorrow, she gave me a little nod and a quick goodbye and then I went on my way to the house of wind.

I got into bed that night and she was all I could think about, her soft brown eyes taking over my mind and breaking my usual focus. I felt a little bad for not paying more attention at dinner but if I had to do it again, I don't think I would do it any differently.

Rhys POV

In the morning I met with Amren to discus how things had gone with Varian and meeting with the spring court. I knew Varian was fairly aware of the situation from Amren and I didn't think it would be too hard for us to get a meeting with Tarquin on the matter. We had worked together a little and I really enjoyed it he had similar ideas to the ones I had, but I could tell there was a little bit of wariness on his end still. So, I really hoped this would go well because I could really use his help.

Amren said she had asked Varian about a meeting and that he would do everything he could to get it when he went back to the summer court tomorrow. I also made sure that it was all kept under the radar, this would all go much better if Eris was unaware of the army, I was gathering to storm his fortress.

I wanted to inform Kallias and I planned on sending Mor I told her to go saying it was for a visit with Viviane but to slip a letter I had written to Kallias. I then sent Azriel to go and spy on Eris to see if he could get more information about his fortress in the human realm, we had what Feyre knew but it wasn't quite enough to be able to plan an attack.

Cassian was back at the Illyrian camps this morning trying to round up any Illyrians that he could, but he didn't have very high expectations. It seemed like some of them might also be working with Kier, so I told Cass to be very careful about what he said and who he talked to.

I had gotten up early to get everything in motion and to get everything rolling and I had left Feyre still sleeping. I was now sitting in the cluttered office covered in the paperwork we had fallen behind on while trying to sort this all out. I dove right into a particularly large stack when I heard the door creak open. I looked up and saw Feyre standing in the doorway. "You coming in?" I asked her.

"Hmm, but then I might get sucked into one of those giant stacks of work. Plus, I'm really hungry I really want watermelon… and eggs… and… ice cream." She said.

I laughed a little then responded, "well would you like them all together or separately Feyre darling."

She scoffed at my laughter, "well I was going to invite you to come eat with me but I'm not so sure anymore."

"Hmmm, I would love to eat, but I have something better in mind then watermelon, eggs and ice cream." I said trailing my eyes up and down her body.

She seemed to consider for a moment "I think that could be arranged, but I still need food." She saw my smirk and then said, "real food."

I stood up gave her a quick peck on the lips and then went to the kitchen to see if this combination of food could be arranged. Feyre came and sat at the counter in the kitchen watching me as I pulled stuff out. We didn't have a watermelon, so I sent Cerridwen out to get one and got to work making the eggs. Nuala tried to do it for me, but I told her I could do it, she left with a wary look in her eyes and before she was out of sight she said, "You better not to anything to my pristine kitchen." I heard her laugh a little as she walked down the hall and when I looked back at Feyre she seemed to be holding back her laughter.

"I guess we shouldn't tell her about the last time we had the kitchen all to ourselves." She said with a little wink.

I walked over to her and brought my lips to her neck, but it wasn't long before she protested, "Rhsy you're going to burn my eggs." It snapped me out of my trance, and I went back to work. I almost didn't notice her creep up behind me and wrap her hands around my waist.

"Feyre you're going to burn yourself" I said taking a few steps back from the stove.

She kissed her way up my neck all the way up to my ear where she whispered, "worth it."

I smiled a little, the egg was almost finished so I went to grab a plate and she shuffled behind me not willing to let me go. Then we shuffled back over to the stove. I said a quick "watch out" as I lifted the pan off the stove and transferred the egg over to the plate.

Then I pulled out the ice cream and served her a bowl, now I was just missing the watermelon. I moved her food over to the counter where she had been sitting before when I heard Cerridwen coming back into the kitchen. When I took the watermelon Feyre let go and went to the cupboard and grabbed the chocolate sauce and sat down. I cut up a few pieces of the watermelon and then I joined her.

She covered her ice cream in the chocolate sauce and when she got the watermelon, she started to dip it into the ice cream bowl. When she ate it her nose crinkled, "not as good as I thought that was going to be." She said, and then proceeded to do it again.

She was about to do it again when I stopped her hand halfway to the bowl. She looked over at me and at the slightly startled look on her face I laughed, then I brought the watermelon up to my mouth and took a massive bite. I could barely chew it, and she watched me the whole time then I said, "that was just so I don't have to watch you ruin the perfectly good watermelon."

She laughed and then grabbed another piece, dipped it in the ice cream chocolate mess, brought it to her mouth and slowly, painfully liked the chocolate and ice cream off. She stared right into my eyes the whole time. I went to grab her to pull her onto my lap, but she stopped me and said, "not till I've finished my eggs." I laughed and pushed the eggs towards her.

She started out slow but quickly sped up when I put my hand on her knee and started stroking her leg going a little bit higher each time. After that it wasn't long till she finished. Once she set down her fork I pulled her into my arms and she wrapped her legs around my waist and I carried her up the stairs, but before I left I did clean the kitchen with my magic.
