Remembering the dead will always give them life.
The coveted Morrígan’s staff is up for sale on the black market to the highest bidder, and SOA Special Agent Patrick Collins will do whatever it takes to ensure the Dominion Sect doesn’t get their hands on it. Returning the weapon to its rightful owner is another step on the long road toward clearing Patrick’s soul debt, but he won’t walk it alone. Jonothon de Vere won’t let him.
Obeying the gods means Patrick must travel to London. For Jono, it means facing a past he thought he’d left behind forever. His return to England isn’t welcome, and neither is their pack, but Jono and Patrick will face the antagonism together. Politics aside, their priority must be the mission, but the bone-chilling secret they uncover in the London god pack will have far-reaching repercussions no one can ignore.
A race against time takes Patrick and Jono from the streets of London to the bright lights of Paris, where hospitality is thin on the ground, the air is filled with whispered prayers for the missing, and the Morrígan’s staff will end up in the one place it should never have gone—a graveyard.
For beneath Paris lie the long-forgotten dead, and when they rise to walk again, the living can only hope to die.
On the Wings of War is a 109k word m/m urban fantasy with a gay romantic subplot and a HFN ending. It is a direct sequel to A Vigil in the Mourning. Reading the first book in the series would be helpful in enjoying this one.
About On the Wings of War by Hailey Turner: This is an exciting sequel that builds on the series plot and makes readers keep wanting more!
Jono rolled his eyes. “Don’t be rude to housekeeping. Put that back where you found it.”
“I need it more than they do right now.”
“You spray our room, I’m dumping all your snacks in the trash,” Patrick threatened as he finished knotting his tie.
Wade gasped loudly before narrowing his eyes. “You wouldn’t.”
Jono snagged the bottle of air freshener from him. “Where’s Sage?”
“We were gonna wait for you guys downstairs, but she sent me back up because there’s an asshole waiting for you.”
Jono tossed the bottle of air freshener into the hotel room, not caring where it landed. “Who?”
“That Bryson guy.”
Patrick swore and went to grab his suit jacket from the wardrobe. “What the fuck does he want now?”
“Uh, breakfast? Like me? Sage said our table is ready, and I’m hungry.”
Patrick looked fit to murder someone, but he didn’t raise his shields. Jono could still smell him—the underlying bitterness that was Patrick’s own scent, along with the scent of them together and the pack on its own. The mix was better than any cologne on the market as far as Jono was concerned.
“Let’s go,” Patrick ordered.
Jono let him leave first, enjoying the view of Patrick from behind. The suit was decently tailored and fit him well, and it wasn’t every day Jono got to see him clean up nice. Jono figured Nadine probably had a hand in it at some point since it was reasonably on trend.
He let the door close and latch behind him before hurrying after Patrick and Wade. They took the lift down, exiting into the lobby. Sage stood near one of the chaise lounges, dressed casually, with a tote bag on her shoulder. Bryson stood a meter away from her, hands at his sides, not showing throat but not looking like he wanted to fight.
They strode across the lobby, and Jono watched as Bryson turned his head to look at them, eyes hidden behind sunglasses. Beyond the hotel’s sliding glass front doors, it looked as if the sun from yesterday had been swallowed by clouds.
“Give me one good reason I shouldn’t knock your ass into the street?” Patrick demanded in a low voice once they got within arm’s reach, mindful of the front desk workers nearby.
“Because it would go against pass-through rights when I’m not here to fight,” Bryson drawled. He sniffed unsubtly, jaw twitching a little from whatever he was picking up from Patrick.
“Your attitude leaves much to be desired. How many of you have been ordered to spy on us?” Sage said.
Bryson’s mouth twisted a little before he shook his head. “I came by for a chat and to check up on you lot.”
“You mean you came to spy.”
Bryson shrugged expansively, the smile on his face brittle. “Are you surprised? You left an impression.”
“We could leave another one,” Patrick said, one hand in a fist.
