DianaIF THERE WAS one thing her father taught her, it was the need to always make good of everything. It was a habit she had been trying so hard to bury for years. As Diana stared at Thalia, everything in Diana warned her not to trust the female. Her gut screamed against it, but Diana wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt. "Are you sure about this?" Sia whispered to Diana as Thalia began weaving the spell. "No," Diana answered simply, still not taking her eyes off Thalia. "Then why are you letting her do it?" Sia asked again."How do you think you would feel without your powers?" Diana asked back, turning to face Sia. "Empty. Dead. Broken," Sia responded without even thinking. "Then you understand how it would feel if I lose my Wolf or Selene. They have been a part of me for over twenty years and nothing would be the same without them. "So, if Thalia poses a slight chance for me to save them, then I am going to take it," Diana said and resumed watching Thalia. Diana cou

DianaTHE PRINTS LED directly to the secret library. The last print was in front of a bookshelf with just six books on it. It was one of the most uninteresting shelves in the library. At least one of the pages had to be in those books. Diana picked a book that first caught her attention. She wasn't sure why she felt obliged to pick that book first, but she did pick it. "Fate's eye? So random," Sia commented on the book Diana was holding. "What can be more unexpected than a book about fate?" Diana asked. Suddenly, the book dropped from her hands to the ground. Diana looked at Sia in shock, then looked back to the book. "What the hell?!" Diana muttered as the pages of the book began flipping themselves. "Diana…" Thalia called but Diana was busy staring at the continuously flipping book.She looked at Sia. "Are you doing this?" Sia quickly shook her head. "Of course, not!""What about you, Thalia?" Diana asked again. Thalia rolled her eyes. "That was why I called your attention i

Diana "I HAVE NEVER seen anyone as selfish as you, Thalia," Diana said, staring at Thalia who obviously did not feel the least guilty about what she had done. "No need to be so sensitive, I was just messing with her. She did not need to go off on me like that," Thalia responded with an eye roll. Now Diana was pushed past the limit of her patience. She took a deep breath and said, "Please leave, Thalia. I really appreciate all your help but I do not think we can have you around anymore.""What? You are sending me away because that child is throwing a tantrum," Thalia said seriously. "That child is your sister. A sister whom I have watched you treat terribly since you came in here!" Diana stopped talking and took deep breaths to calm herself. "This is between Sianna and me. Why do you concern yourself with such things?" Thalia asked in confusion."Are you blind or just stupid?" Diana could not help but ask. "Excuse me?" Thalia blurted. "You are excused. Now, leave my pack, and I

DianaBACK IN THE library, Diana watched as Sia did the retraction spell again, the right way this time. It was a short spell and thankfully did not end up with melted pages. "There is nothing on here, Diana. I think Thalia might have been wrong about the pages being inside this book. "Yes, I know we can feel the power coming from it, but I believe it is not the pages. Only the word 'Eye' had been spelled so the clue must be that word," Sia explained."So, you think we just have to find another clue from that word?" Diana asked for clarification. "Yes. I wonder what it could be," Sia mused, rubbing her chin thoughtfully. Diana looked at the old clock on the wall, which was surprisingly still working. "Damn it, we have just a few hours left. Whatever it is, we have to find it fast," Diana told her urgently. She then began scanning through the shelves. She could not spare one more minute."Diana, wait!" Sia called out. Diana quickly came back to her side. "What is it?""There is

Diana DIANA QUICKLY SNAPPED her gaze to Sia's face, almost giving herself a whiplash. "If you return? What does that mean?" Sighing, Sia left the books and turned to face Diana. "Communicating with the dead is ancient dark magic. It is extremely risky and evil spirits could also take the face of my ancestors. "That is why I would be using the book as a key ingredient. It would represent the item of ownership of the dead ancestor. "If things happen to go wrong, and my return is compromised, the book will be safe here, and you can continue without me.""Have you completely lost your mind?" Diana questioned without thinking while glaring at Sia. "Hear me out, Diana, I-" Sia was quickly cut off by an enraged Diana. "No, you will hear me out!" Diana growled, her voice coming out a little feral. Sia shuffled back, a little startled but Diana continued. "There is no fucking way I will be letting you do this, knowing that your life will be in danger. Kill that thought, Sia, because it

Diana 'LUNA?' DIANA TESTED. After a few seconds, she heard Luna's voice. 'I am here, Diana, I never left.' 'Then you must know why I have come to you.' 'Indeed, I do. I see through your eyes and hear through your ears, too.' 'Can you do it?' 'If I could, I would have forced my way past the mental block and told you myself, but sadly no, I can not. I could only sense the book because Selene pointed it to me. The pages are of a lesser power so it is impossible for me to sense it.' Diana sighed in disappointment. 'Then I guess there is nothing left to talk about—" 'Wait, Diana. The clue your father left, Fate's eye is indeed the answer to all your questions. Remember the story Debora loved to tell you all the time, the one about the two friends who formed a band of heroes.' 'I do remember that, but how does it relate to Fate's eye?' Diana asked in confusion. 'What was Leah's last line before she and Sarah defeated the evil vampire?' 'Two is double the power of one, and the

DianaAS SOON AS Sia began casting Thalia's spell, Diana began saying it with her. She was not sure what to expect, but all she knew was that she needed to say everything until something happened.She and Sia were standing on opposite sides, holding hands, with the books in between them. Sia told her to say the entire spell twice. Somehow, Diana knew something was happening after the second time. She felt it in her veins. Something was leaving her body and she liked the feeling. The feeling was like releasing a breath after holding it for a long time. She was not sure how long it took to cast the spell but she was certain it was not for more than a few minutes.When Diana finally opened her eyes, Sia was staring above them. She followed Sia's gaze and to her greatest surprise, the two books were floating above their heads in what looked like a slow dance. Suddenly, both books came crashing down, and they barely had time to move away before they slammed against the ground. Immedia

Diana"MY NAME IS Paige and I am a book nymph. Not like you asked, though," the miniature creature, Paige said with an eye roll. "Wait... Book nymphs still exist?" Sia asked, coming out from behind Diana. "Oh, hello there, Siana. Nice of you to join us," Paige announced with a sarcastic smile. "How do you know our names?" Diana asked. "I am a book nymph, it is my job to know things," Paige said matter of factly. "Fair enough. But I thought your kind had gone extinct," Diana said curiously. Sighing, Paige flew down and sat on the desk. Diana thought she looked like a little bird perching on the edge of the desk. "We did go extinct after the first uprising. Well, almost all of us. "I was saved by a group of witches who tasked me with the job of keeping a box in exchange for saving my life. I have lived here for centuries, only come out when it is dark.""Okay, so, how did you survive for so long here without being detected by the wolves?" Sia asked. "After the destruction of my
