The Solstice
Derrick, Kevin's ex, arrives in Dante's Cove for his bachelor party.
With the Libra Solstice at hand, Van agrees to become Grace's Aspirant to gain the chance to save Michelle. Ambrosius makes another attempt to enchant Kevin through the use of the china doll, which has a powerful love charm on it cast by his mother. The charm leads Derrick to try to seduce Kevin and for Marco and Kai to hook up. Bro uses the charm to try to get Adam and Toby together, but Toby's true love for Kevin overcomes the charm. Toby destroys the charm by breaking the doll, but Bro uses his Tresum powers to control Toby. Ambrosius then threatens Kevin to become his aspirant or else he would never see Toby again, and he will hold him for all eternity. Ambrosius thus extorts Kevin into agreeing to become his Aspirant, binding Kevin to him with the recovered enchanted bracelet.
Grace and Van arrive at the spring before the others and together perform the ritual. Bro intervenes and attacks Grace. Grace and Bro each draw upon the strength of their respective Aspirants in the battle, but Toby interferes. Grace gains the upper hand and seemingly disintegrates Bro. Suddenly Diana appears and seems to destroy Grace. As Diana prepares to claim the Libra power to save her father and destroy her mother, Van beseeches her to give life instead of taking it, and Diana relinquishes the power to her, allowing her to go back in time to save Michelle.
The following day Michelle leaves for home. Bro suddenly reappears and claims Kevin, saying Kevin agreed willingly. The two vanish before Toby's and Van's eyes.

Famous quotes containing the word solstice:
“Oh, what a catastrophe for man when he cut himself off from the rhythm of the year, from his unison with the sun and the earth. Oh, what a catastrophe, what a maiming of love when it was a personal, merely personal feeling, taken away from the rising and the setting of the sun, and cut off from the magic connection of the solstice and the equinox!”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Midnight, and the clock strikes. It is Christmas Day, the werewolves’ birthday, the door of the solstice still wide enough open to let them all slink through.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
