********************Lena's POVI began by choosing a simple object; I went around the battleground looking for any object that was simple and probably small. Like a small rock, stone or a stick so I could attempt to transform them into a weapon. Lyla kept on giving technical advice, and I walked around to find any object. I finally found a rock and a stick I picked two of them and stood. Lyla began to tell me how to channel my energy into the object while Ethan watched, offering support from where he stood. My first attempt was really shaky and unstable I struggled a lot to adapt to the new skill. It seemed harder than trying to lift object.Did I just say it seemed? It was harder than trying to lift an object. I held the rock I had taken, holding it tightly in my palm."Yes that's good starting with something small is better," like said "Now focus on the energy within you, try to push it from your inside into your physical body then to your arms, and let it flow through to your han
***********************Adrian's POV My body felt weak; the wounds that Zane had inflicted on me through his devilish attack were still throwing with pain, the black magic still threatening to consume me. I tried to keep my mind sharp. I cod feel the weight of zabes taunts, but my determination to escape and protect my family kept me grounded. The darkness kept on gnawing at me, but my resolve was stronger. I wouldn't make him win; Lena and my child needed me. Zane had the upper hand physically, but I still had my mind intact, and my will to fight was as strong as ever. Zabe co tinued to insult ne he locked me for thinking I could escape and protect my family. He keeps on using his black magic and voice as a weapon trying to break my spirit by reminding me about my past failures "You think there's a way out, little wolf? You're trapped here, in this room, in your weakness, your precious mate Lena, and your child; what name would you have given her? Hmmm, let me see Dora, Lila, or
************************Adrian's POV I continued to test the weak point in the wall, carefully applying small pressures at intervals with my fingers while keeping Zane distracted. My heartbeat was sounding louder in my ears. Truth be said, I was afraid; I was quietly praying to the Moon goddess not to be caught. I still tried to keep Zane distracted with my movement controlled. I knew that if I made a sudden shift, it could alert Zane to my plans.'I had to stay focused one wrong move and it's over Zane would notice he thought he had me cornered but I have to use this to my advantage I can't afford to be careless about this' I thought Zane kept pacing around the room, his eyes narrowing as if I sensed something was off, but he still couldn't pinpoint my subtle actions. He tried to reassert his control over me, throwing more taunts and threats my way.Zane hinted at the power of the dark magic laced in the room further heightening the tension "You think you can just sit here there
*********************Adrian's POV I continued to push through the opening; it was like a maze, like an underground passage. My body was exhausted, and my senses became heightened, but the disorientation of the tunnel began to weigh me down. It began to wear on him. The air in the maze felt colder than ever. Earlier the shadows kept playing constant tricks on my mind. I reflected on what was at stake, what I needed to achieve and my purpose of making sure I left this hole. Failure meant losing Lena and my child and the fight against Zane forever.I would be deemed if the road I was threading on led towards freedom or a dead end. But I kept recalling Lena's face using it as my source of strength and to fuel my determination.The footsteps I heard earlier began to draw closer; I didn't know if it was Zane's minions or if it was him coming closer, but I couldn't think of that thinking of that would only slow my movement. Footsteps echoed in the dis, dance making my heart beat faster th
**************************Adrian's POV I made up my mind to follow the light. Following the light would only make me more exposed to Zane and his minion's hut, but this dark part offers a better cover. Still, I felt like light and darkness couldn't agree as one, so the light has to be a chance to escape.I made up my mind to go towards the light. Feeling that any chance of escape was worth the risk. The feeling of uncertainty weighed on me. I kept going closer; the closer I got, the brighter the light seemed to appear. Another minion came from a corner. This time around, I was so unlucky. The minion happened to just burst out from a corner not too far from me and stood in my front. He appeared to want to put his hands two of his fingers on his head. My brain interpreted the gesture as a gesture of trying to send a psyche signal to tell the rest minions and probably Zane about him finding me and to possibly give them my location. Whichever way it is I couldn't take chances.With t
*******************Zane's POV 'Something is wrong, something Is not right' I said to myself I was beginning to feel a disturbance in the room, a shift in the energy. It felt like a hole in the darkness. I didn't know in time that it was Adrian manipulating the weak point in the wall. "How did I miss this?" I said, looking at the hole Adrian had squeezed through. I was so confident in the strength of my dark magic that I didn't know when Adrian was plotting. Though I sensed his defeat, once I sensed his unyielding spirit, i,t but I didn't sense this. "The little wolf outplayed me" My mind was flickering between overconfidence and paranoia; I was certain that Adrian was powerless,s ye,t and I was growing uneasy with his si. lence I didn't know he was plotting behind my back.My patience was wearing thin as I noticed that Adrian was still refusing to engage with my taunts, my calm facade slightly cracke,d and my frustration intensified. I was there pacing the room hurling more an
*************************Zane's POV "I must find you, little wolf I must" I murmured The thought of letting go of this power wasn't sitting well with me I needed Adrian oh no not really I needed his power if not for his power I would have destroyed him long ago I could destroy him with just a flip of my fingers and boom he's gone'Or should I just destroy him' If I wanted to kill him I could kill him right now before he ever finds a way out of this cave. But even if I wanted to kill him, I needed to be sure about his exact location before I could do that. Right now, I don't know about his whereabouts. My minions haven't brought any news of even mere sighting him. If any of them could just come to me and say they had found him, I could use my dark magic to trace where he was and kill him right at the spot.Sending a psyche message would be better; when I was turning my minions into my dark followers, I made it so that I was connected to them and them to me so I could easily dispa
*************************Ethan's POV I watched Lena carefully with pride, seeing how she was pushing herself to master her powers. I reflected on how far he had come since we first met again During the attack on Adrian's pack and her rescue mission. I was impressed by how she continued steadfastly paying attention to every instruction given to her by Lyla.Even when she seemed to have a lot of doubts about herself, I believed do much in her potentials I was rooting for her silently from across the ground where she trained. I had a very strong sense of responsibility to help her succeed and I was going to do just that. I would stand by her; at every step of the way, I promised myself to be there with her, holding her hands and reassuring her that she could do this., Yes, I never ceased to encourage her, but in war, the day I was grappling with my impatience. I knew we were running out of time, and every moment we spent training could be precious. Did I let this feelings show?Not,
