First Son of the Mound — Meraki P. Lyhne

Kaleb and Jeff are working on their budding friendship and on earning the trust of their new and potential allies. In the attempt to secure his ally, Kaleb runs into new magic. Or rather, very old magic. That mistake leads to more, and not only on Kaleb's part. With planning a wedding, the Enki fest, the opening reception of the auction house, and the art exhibition, the Earned are stretched thin serving. Edward strikes gold when he stumbles upon a young artist with a secret. He reminds Edward of a cycles-old love—one he's going to need to focus on as his youngest son is once again thrust into unknown kinds of magic. The two powerful Captains and their new allegiance are put to the test. So is their friendship as Jeff continues to work on saving his marriage.
