P.O.V. William

He couldn't believe the words coming out of the female's mouth. No it isn't her. It's a trap.

" You're lying." Said Reyes with deadly clam.

" Why would I lie? Ask me anything?" Gilly's voice changed. It was now husky and sinful; a man could come just listening to her voice.

" Who helped Ashlyn through her birth?" asked Maddox.

" Danika until she realized it was a demon baby and William took over by cutting her stomach open because they were clawing there way out."

" Where did Danika and Gilly work together?" asked Reyes.

" A bar."

" Which one was us is with Danika?" asked Reyes again.

" With who and in the order you fell in love; Maddox Keeper of Violence with Ashlyn, Lucien Keeper of Death married Anya minor goddess of archery a couple days ago, Reyes Keeper of Pain who to me is like a father with Danika, Sabin Keeper of Doubt with Gwen a harpy, Aeron former Keeper of Wrath with Olivia an angel, Gideon Keeper of Lies with Scarlet Keeper of Nightmares because of her demon she can't go in the sun without passing out, Amun Keeper of Secrets with Haidee a former hunter and former Keeper of Hate now Keeper of Love, Strider Keeper of Defeat with harpy Kaia is sister of Gwen who are the Skyhawk's, Paris Keeper of Promiscuity until Sienna who now is the Keeper of Wrath. Any more questions?"

It's Gilly! She's back! She came back to me. I mean here. Came back here not me.

Suddenly William wanted to throw up, we hit her. Before any of us could beg for forgiveness and we are going beg on your fucking knees, Cameo ran and hugged her hard screaming to the top of her lungs " We've missed you so much! Where have you been! Please forgive us. Please, we needn't mean to hurt you. We love you-" before she could finish Gilly fainted along with Gideon.

P.O.V. Gilly

The last thing she remembered was Cameo hugging her then talking gods the misery in her voice. She fainted coming in and out of consciousness a couple times seeing William and all the Lords. They haven't change at all but they are immortal so it isn't like Gilly was expecting them too.

" Maddox what did you do?" she heard Ashlyn whisper with horror in her voice.

" I don't know?"

" We should have noticed the connection. We should have let her finish talking instead of . . . hitting her." Sabin said.

" You beat her half to death." Said William.

" I'm not sorry. So not sorry." Gideon said," We don't need to take her to a hospital."

Slowly Gilly tried to open her eyes only slip back to the darkness again.

P.O.V. William

I looked at my Gilly's beautiful face; damn she's changed since William saw her. Gods she's so beautiful, so perfect. All her features sharpened from when she was seventeen and we hit her without remorse. All the pain she felt . . . William couldn't take it anymore and punched the wall in front of him letting plaster into the air. Her face all bruised and swollen she –

" She is healing." Said Lucien, " Quickly."

William ran to where she was and saw one of her eyes was no longer swollen and a prayer slipped his lips thanking them bastard gods for the first time in centuries.

" How? She's human. Right?" No human could heal this fast. It would take them weeks and she's human.

" I think so but maybe not entirely."

P.O.V. Gilly

Gilly dreamed of Blake in pain chained to a wall being tortured to death. It's a dream. I know it's a dream. He has the necklace no one alive can find him; it's a dream not a vision.

She blinked a couple times before finally being able to open her eyes, her body was healed but she had a major headache. I'm back at the fortress. Gilly didn't want to leave but she also didn't want to confront them and explain why she left for five years (among other things). Slowly Gilly sat up from the bed and looked around the room, this doesn't look like the fortress but I have been gone for a while maybe they changed it. But that didn't matter, maybe she could leave without being noticed because she couldn't face them, couldn't explain why she felt but mostly she couldn't see the hurt on their faces.

Gilly got out of bed seeing a black shadow hide behind the door. A black shadow. Great she was imagining things until she saw it again. I need to get out of here. She got a semi automatic from the night table and got a look at herself in the mirror. At least I'm clean, she was in a black camisole and very short cotton shorts, I need shoes. Gilly looked around the room until deciding she could survive without.

Slowly without making a sound she opened the door and looked at the hallway. This isn't the fortress? Where am I? This looks like Hogwarts. She saw more shadows floating around looking as if they wanted to eat her but couldn't or wouldn't, she's still debating. Every time she walked to a hallway it was empty, to her luck. Gilly had no idea where she was but that isn't Budapest. Going down the stairs she was careful not to make a sound, when she reached the bottom it looked normal; in a way. The room was about the size of a football field. It had wooden floors, the walls were stone like the rest of the castle, it had a huge gothic looking chandelier lighting the room, a seventy- two-inch plasma with every game console you could think of, a surround sound system covering every inch of the room with a fuse ball machine and pool table. A medieval castle with more electronics than Best Buy, it's official this is one of the strangest days of my life.

She heard heels walking down the hall becoming louder with every step. Gilly looked around the room looking for a good place to hide. The closet seems good. She walked to open the door but Gilly didn't see the toy doll and stepped on it causing it to squeak.

Closing her eyes she cursed silently when Gilly heard the footsteps coming closer to the room.

Click.

Gilly heard the sound of a gun being ready to fire.

Gilly was waiting inside with her gun already aiming, ready to shoot. Inside walked it a women with blonde hair that wasn't Danika or Haidee.

" Put the gun down." Gilly said.

" You put it down sugar or I shoot."

" Where am I? Who are you?" Maybe if I knock her out I can get out of here.

Gilly tried to get closer to her but just one step and she said " Move and I kill you where you stand."

" Or I kill you."

She gave Gilly a sarcastic laugh saying, " You're not going to kill me because that'll draw attention."

Gilly noticed her eyes kept looking behind her every few seconds.

" Put the gun down. I don't care that I'll draw attention. It'll make the perfect distraction while I leave."

What does she keep on looking at?

" You can't kill me. I'm too awesome to kill."

Quick think what's on the wall . . . the mirror. But why is she looking at the mirror . . . and talking about herself so much . . . unless she has Narcissism as her demon.

Gilly blocked her from seeing the mirror and saw a bit of panic in her eyes and attacked.

Gilly knocked the gun out of her hands and pushed her against the wall where she nailed Gilly in the stomach with her knee. Hell that one hurts. It took all she had not to bend over. Gilly pushed her against the wall hard enough for the mirror to fall down with a huge crash, before Gilly could punch her she dove for the gun again and Gilly grabbed hers, in that moment all the Lords rushed in.

" PUT THE GUN DOWN!" Gilly screamed.

" You first!"

" Enough! Viola of put your gun down."

Gilly looked around and saw the Lords watching her with remorse in here stares. I'm save here then. Slowly she put her gun down and looked over at Danika who was standing next to Reyes with her hand over her mouth and tears pouring down her face. She had to blink a few time herself for tears not to fall. Gods how must have she felt not knowing where she was. Probably the same way I'm feeling not knowing about Blake. Danika ran to where she was and hugged her hard. Gilly hugged her back with the same strength trying to make her stop trembling.

" It's you." She said over and over again but her to herself than to anyone else. When she step away and looked at Gilly's face more tears came to her eyes but she smiled " You have gotten so beautiful." That made Gilly smile.

The next one to hug her was Reyes and soon there was a group hug with the Lords and girls and lots of tears. Gilly's missed them so much. All these years she never really allowed herself to miss them she just didn't think about them and all the memories she missed.

" They wanted to know what you are-" said Bianka " Lysander said to wait for you to tell them."

" You healed like one of us. You are not human anymore or you never were." Said Lucien hugging her until Paris yanked her to him " You've gotten way too pretty for your own good."

Aeron smiled " I'm gonna tattoo this date."

" How did you end up in Tartarus?" Anya said.

Gilly took a big breath " It's a long story. You better sit down then."

When Gilly finished they were all quiet trying to process what she just told them. After the shock she asked where she was. Turns out that she was in Sienna's castle and that they took her here so no one could follow her Sabin also told her about what's happened in the last five years. They wanted to ask questions but Gilly said not right now. They needed to take in what she said and she needed to take in what they said.

P.O.V. William

He couldn't face Gilly right now. William was in his part of the castle (that rightful belonged to him thanks to a bet Paris lost). He was the only one who didn't hug Gilly, the only one who didn't say anything. Mostly because he just pictured her naked body and how badly he wanted to do naughty things to it. Gods she's a women now and I want her so bad. There wouldn't be anything wrong with him wanting her but he would never act on how he felt because William wouldn't play her like that. He heard a knock on his door but his wasn't in the mood. Still he heard the door open causing William to get up from his bed and walk down the hall to see Gilly standing behind the door still wearing those black shorts showing off her long legs. He just pictured those long legs hooked around his waist while he pumped inside of her- don't go there. You're never going to go there.

" Hey . . . do you know you're the only person who didn't hug me." she said with humor.

" I know it's just after what happened . . . I just couldn't face you." Because all I think about are those red nipples.

" What happened was my fault. I could have said it was me but I didn't-"

" Why didn't you say something? Why go through that torture?" his voice came out angry.

" I had my reason."

" Would you like to share them?"

She shook her head " No . . . I've missed you. I know I've been gone a long time but I'm back now, you should be happy."

William couldn't stay mad at her not when she came back to him I mean back to us. He walked over and hugged her hard.

" I've missed you too." Fuck she's so beautiful and her breasts feel so good against my chest and she's so hot. Not the good looking hot but hot as in a major fever, maybe it's a witch thing, I can't be mad at her for leaving- how can I when she's back now and I have her in my arms. " I think we need to have a talk that's way over due missy."

They sat down in front of William's fireplace and talked about how she learned magic and how to fight which William didn't like a whole lot. " So where's the wart on your nose and broom."

Gilly laughed with a sound so sexy he had to fight off a hard-on. " Doesn't work like that so tell me how's your sister in law Anya doing?" she said with a teasing tone.

" They told you then? Great. Honey Lucy is not my brother we're not hair related."

" Hair related?"

" Have you seen his split ends." He snapped and Gilly laughed raising her palms in surrender. They were quiet for a while but it was an awkward quiet wanting to avoid a subject he wanted to talk about.

" Why did you leave?" William didn't like the sorrow in his voice but he couldn't help it.

" I told you why?" her eyes not waning to look at him.

" Why didn't you tell me? I would've gone will you?"

She sighed, " Because I needed to grow up and if I would've told you, you would've wanted to come with me. I needed to find myself without any of you there to always watch over me."

" You could've told us you were okay with someone or a letter or . . . something."

" And you would've tried to find me. I left because if not I would've been thirty and all of you would still treat me like a child. And dating would've been a nightmare." William didn't like the idea of her dating guys, even less kissing guys. " You were to young to date and to be making kissy faces with guys."

" I wasn't going to stay seventeen forever. Eventually boyfriends were gonna be a part of my life and with your rule of me having to wait until three hundred I knew you guys were going to terrify anyone I brought home and it's not even that, I had a tracker on my shoes. I felt like a prisoner."

" We only tried to protect you because of the war and because of what was . . . done . . . to you." He didn't like mentioning her past to Gilly but it was the truth. He never wanted her to feel hurt again.

" Your over protectiveness never made me forget."

Before William could open his mouth Reyes opened the door saying, " We have an emergency."
