*ASA TRINE* What? But how could that be possible? If he was the strongest today then how could I possibly defeat him? “But that isn’t possible,” I whispered making him laugh more in a sinister way. The fear was only now starting to grip me as I looked on ahead in the darkness of his body that was only growing and growing. “She lied to you,” he said making my heart freeze. He was lying, why would the goddess lie to me? Why would she push me into the death’s mouth? Something must be wrong here! But I didn’t have time to find out this time for now I knew that getting out of here would be more useful to me at this moment. Looking around I spotted something that gave me some hope. It was the same white powder that I had spilt before. I had then thought of it to be an unfortunate event but this would be my only last resort. I felt him come close to me when suddenly I heard Cain’s voice in my head, 'Asa, we need to get out of here.’ ‘I know.’ Formulating a plan in my head I said, ‘L
*CAIN ARIUS*I hated this.I could see how troubled she was and the bond that had been tight inside me was turbulent from the pain that she feeling.Why did this have to happen to her?Letting Dion take control of my body I mind linked Asa as I said, ‘Asa, just a little more you can see that the temple is not far, we can reach there in time just try to push a little bit more.’‘I’ll be fine,’ came her reply but in such a weak and tired voice that she couldn’t hide the torment that her body was going through.She was lying to me and I could feel the life force inside her flickering with every jump that Xara took to lead her back to safety.“Not so soon! I will not let you get away!” Ephialtes shouted from behind us and I could feel Asa’s panic as a fleeting heart beat that was drumming against her wolf’s chest who was already struggling to lead them to safety with what little energy her body was left with.Turning around to stop his attack I howled for Asa to move forward without me bu
*CAIN ARIUS*I could barely feel myself as I looked down at the almost lifeless face of my mate.She had been unconscious for the last two hours and no matter how much I tried to shake her awake she just wouldn’t wake up. I have never once felt this helpless as I am doing now while I pray for her safety. That’s the only thing I can do.Outside the moonstone circle of protection that Asa has created for us I can see that the darkness and cold that has heavily blanketed the area has caused a fog to rise all around us. I can even see on some branches the dew drops that had been present there has been solidified to hard ice and I only wonder if the Moonstone had not been here to protect us then if not from Ephialtes then we both would have defiantly died from the cold that Ephialtes had gifted the whole area with.I couldn’t see whether it had been day yet r not but since everything was still darkened around me I can only guess that it hadn’t been morning yet or maybe it was but the trees
*CAIN ARIUS* More than two days had passed but Asa had still not gained consciousness yet.I had been awake a few hours after I received my first aid but Asa hadn’t been lucky enough as she lay still in a room in the pack house that was always kept lighted and warm. Mom and Dad had believed it to be wise to keep her around as many people as possible for her safety and to make sure that Ephialtes wouldn’t be able to live in the shadows and sneak in the whole room and the corridor or should I say the entire pack house had been kept lighted up at all times.What had happened and the reason why it had suddenly started freezing in the middle of the jungle in our pack couldn’t possibly be kept hidden any longer from the people of our pack and after they demanded to know the truth it had been unveiled to them after a talk of which I had decided not to be a part of.I only wanted to be with my mate and only my mate until and unless she opened her eyes and smiled at me.I am sorry, Asa.“Sh
*ASA TRINE* Darkness surrounded me so menacingly that I wondered if I had been dead or alive.It was cold very cold to the point that I had stopped feeling any sensation in my body and could now see only the mist that formed in front of me in a pale grey color from the heavy breaths that I had been taking.Breathing.I was breathing at least.That was assuring to some extent even though my arms had been looking as pale as the Goddess’s color.Where was I?The last thing I remembered was that I had been in the forest with Cain. Where was he? Was he safe? Was I safe? Are we still in one of Ephialtes’s magic traps?I didn’t know and this loss of knowledge made my heart race with worry for Cain. I had broken my pendant and I had prayed to the goddess to keep us safe but I don’t remember if I had been able to complete the circle or not.“Please Moon Goddess keep him safe,” I called out feeling tears spring to my eyes at the thought of something happening to my mate. It had been way to
*CAIN ARIUS*This wasn’t what I had wanted to hear the first thing when she woke up but just listening to her vice had been enough for me to feel my heart beat calm down a little.How could I have continued to live on if she hadn’t woken up ever again?“We can talk about that later Asa first you need to take it easy and not put any stress on your body,” I said looking deep into her beautiful eyes as I hoped for her to understand my point. She was still blinking from the light that must have been making it difficult for her to see and telling her to wait for a second I moved away to dim the light a little bit but only a very minute amount to avoid having darkness in any corner.She seemed to realize her overexcited state because when I came back she had a hand over her eyes as she looked from in between her fingers and angling her bed so that she was sitting up I then brought a glass of water to her lips as I said, “Drink some.”She followed my instruction as she looked at me with a ga
*ASA TRINE*“But as far as I know the demons and all evil entities become stronger during the Solar Eclipse, you know something related to the darkness thriving over light?” Michael said making me look towards him with a frown as I gave some thought to his words.He had made a valid point but I knew for sure that I hadn’t been wrong this time about my speculation. This was the only way I could defeat Ephialtes and I knew that this was what the goddess had meant when I had seen that Solar Eclipse that was wiping away everyone around me as if shadows when light fell on it.This made an idea struck in my brain and trying to think it through I said, “I am not quite sure but I think this could be a way to lure out Ephialtes in the broad daylight. He is known to be strong in the dark and in the shadows but he has never shown himself during the daylight.”“That is makes sense but are you suggesting that you will call out Ephialtes during a solar eclipse which would fool him into thinking tha
*ASA TRINE* “Don’t tell me this is the first thing you want to do as soon as you come out,” Cain said looking at me with a disapproving gaze. Knew how he might be feeling wanting to keep me safe and protected but I needed to go and find Devin.“Please, we have had this conversation before, I need to see him,” I said hoping that Devin wouldn’t make it more difficult for me to find him. Staying silent knowing there was nothing he could do to change my mind I went towards the stairs to exit the brightened up floor of the pack house that had been made exclusive for my use until I recovered.“Besides that did you get any information regarding the Eclipse?” I asked hoping that he would bring some positive news.It had been two more days since I woke up and since the doctor had deemed me fit I could have left the special room the very same day but my overprotective mat and my sister ad made it so that they would run some extra test on me and kept me under supervisor for a while longer.
