Adrian's POV

My sense of urgency heightened as I could feel the grip of Zane on me loosening more frequently. It sharpened my mental focus, understanding that my greatest battle was in trying to control my emotions to prevent the darkness within me from consuming me completely; I was glad I found out about this because it just meant that I had won once against Zane.

I knew this was the first of many wins I would win against Zane. I took a deep breath, feeling the ebb and flow of Zane's dark magic still running through my inside, but I wasn't shaken by it. I knew, and I could feel Zane's hold flickering; I just had to be careful.

One wrong step, one surge of anger and I could drown in the darkness. I felt a renewed sense of purpose. This was a mental war now, and I was preparing for the final move.

I experienced another vision of Lena, but this time, it was different, clearer and more realistic; I saw not only her struggling but also her resilience, and

    **************************Adrian's POVThis was the moment I was waiting for the moment to push back with everything I have got; I wasn't going to sit and wait for the next fluctuation; I would create it, force it and break through his hold. Zane was beginning to show signs of frustration as I restricted his control; his mocking tone turned more to an aggressive tone, signalling that my resistance had affected him, and I was glad that I was making progress. For a moment I was skeptical i thought what I might be doing might not make any meaningful changes to Zane Seeing him talk this way made me happy, it encouraged me to keep on fighting the darkness within. Zane's voice came echoing through the dark, silent room."You think you can resist me little wolf" frustration clear in his voice I smirked inwardly I was getting to him Weakening his control, it was working, I thanked the moon goddess for giving me that insight. The more he raged the more I knew I was on the right path."You

    ****************************Zane's POVI couldn't believe that this little wolf was trying to overcome my dark magic, and the most unsettling thing about it all was that he was succeeding in whatever he was doing. I filled his mind with visions of the ones he loved fighting a battle couldn't win.The plan was to shatter his mind, not to make his resolve stronger, but the missions were making him more determined to want to free himself from the dark magic hold, but I wasn't going to allow him to do that. I couldn't allow my plan to be thwarted because of him. Angrily, I pierced into his heart, squeezing his heart tightly and making him feel excruciating pain, but I made sure to squeeze in a way he wasn't going to die. I was expecting that he would begin to beg for his life or ask me to reduce the squeeze, but he seemed to be holding on strong, laughing and telling Me that I wouldn't be able to kill him because I needed him for my plans.He was right. I wouldn't be able to kill him be

    ***************************Zane's POVI began to reflect on my endgame, telling myself why I needed Adrian and the greater plan I had in mind. I had to remind myself of the larger picture I wanted to paint. Thinking of the power and control I would gain once Adrian has succumbed to the darkness. One thing you didn't know is that once my dark magic successfully corrupts anyone automatically I get the strength of the person, irrespective of who the person was so I needed Adrian to be corrupted not just because I want him to be my warrior leading my pack or legion of dark magic supernatural I also wanted his wolf strength for my wolf. The truth was my wolf was not as strong as it used to dark magic was just a cover-up for me if I were to stand and fight a person with my wolf abilities alone I don't think I would survive so I need Adrian's strength as well, in his bloodline wolf's had a very unique kind of strength. Due to what I wanted I was temporarily assured, I cantvaffired to do

    *********************Zane's POV I was frustrated that all my tactics seemed fruitless, but I decided that since Adrian wants to talk then I would give him what he wanted. I fling him away, removing my hands from his heart and lungs. It left an open hole in his body, but it was gradually healing; the black magic was making it heal faster. That's why I didn't think twice about doing that to him.I knew that the dark magic inside him would make him heal faster so there was no need for panic. I decided to provoke him, believing that if I could stir up his anger, the dark magic would gain more ground. My eyes glinted as I looked down at Adrian; his hands were on his heart. "You think your stubbornness will save you, little wolf" I sneered my voice laced with deep malice "No one can withstand it for long. Soon you'll break like all the others you are nothing" I said"You think so? Well, I beg to differ; how many of your slaves, or should I say captors, have stayed this long?" He asked r

    *****************************Ethan's POV I leaned back slightly, watching Lena with quiet admiration, thinking back from the very first time I met her in the woods down to the day I rejected her when I went to save her when we found out about her true lineage and her struggle with the spoon and now the success with the chair. She was progressing; it was impressive and incredible. Just a few days ago, she could barely control her powers, and now here she was, lifting objects with ease. Still, I couldn't help but worry. There was something else that was weighing her down and something she wasn't saying. I kept on looking at her as she continued to concentrate on the chair in front of her; my mind raced. What if she was pushing herself too much? What if the real battle came? She was stronger now than I had ever imagined; still, the weight of the uncertainty of what lies ahead still bored down on Me.I couldn't shake off the feeling of worry from my mind, not worry about myself, but w

    ***********************Ethan's POV I watched as Lena lowered herself onto the ground, wiping sweat from her brow. She looked a little bit exhausted. The energy in the air was calm, but there was still an undercurrent of tension. I took a deep breath, knowing that there was no way to avoid the next conversation in our minds, which was the bigger conversation. "Lena, now that you've been able to move things with your mind, what do we do next? We need to talk about what comes next" I asked I calmly asked Lena about how she felt after the training, using the moment to open up about my concerns and to probe her about what was in her mind and what was troubling her. I didn't want to push too hard but I knew we needed to be prepared for whatever comes next, whatever lies ahead."How are you feeling?" I asked my voice was low and gentle as I didn't want to overwhelm her but I couldn't help the biting concern in my chest "I know you've been pushing yourself too hard, my dear. I can see it

The urge to do ds was so strong. I initiated the conversation to solidify our plan and make sure they aligned well once again. I stooped up to get the both of us a glass of water, then came back to sit next to her.I could tell that she needed the water from the way she gulped it all down fast enough. She probably didn't ask as she didn't remember water since her mind was just everywhere else, especially in the training and the battle to come. We both needed to catch our breath, but the truth remained that there was no time to relax completely.After like an hour of not saying a word just her hands on mine, her head was on my shoulder. She placed her head on my shoulder after age had drunk the water finish. "We've made great progress today", I started, my voice steady "but we need to decide w

He still lay down lifeless and almost dead. "Ethan, what are you doing facing Zane" but he couldn't hear me. The next thing I saw was an almost lifeless body lying in front, eyes wide open and staring at me. I felt a rage inside. I looked at both men, and the rage to protect those I loved just sparked in me.All of a sudden, light began to shine out from every part of my body. I was still wrapped by the tendrils, but as my light began to shine from my body, little by little, I started to feel the grip of the tendrils loosen up little by little until It loosened up completely."Oh I see you are finally awake, your boyfriend tried to delay me so you could wake up I will give him a plus for that but one thing I kn

I tried to see if I could get signs of her alive, and I decided to use my hearing to check for a heartbeat. I was glad when I heard her heartbeat. Though it was slow, I was glad it was still beating. Leba was unconscious, with dark magic swirling around her as Zane kept on draining the power and life inside of her. Adrian was barely unconscious, chained and weakened. My heart pounded as I accessed the situation. I knew the time was running out, and I must act quickly to save both lena and Adrian. 'There's no way to win this fight outright.

The thoughts of that scenario just made me more angry at myself it made me feel so stupid. I didn't know how long that was.'She couldn't have gone far' I said to myself I moved the last rock on my leg and started moving forward. As I moved further, I began to see packs of Zane's minions dead on the floor. I checked for their pulses, and it seemed like they had been dead for a while. I was shocked; I wondered, how long they had died for. I left them and moved forward down the tunnel. Nel, I met more and more minions that appeared to be dead along the line bu, but I didn't see a sign of Lena.

In a way, he was able to see through Lena's scanning to find Adrian too, and now Lena wants to go save Adrian.I wasn't going to allow them to face Zane unprepared; she had not learned enough to be able to defeat Zane. It was a dangerous thing. I was not also going to slow the risk of her life because of Adrian. She means more to me than the life of Adrian.Yes, call me selfish if you want, but I don't mind being selfish when it comes to the matters of Lena. Besides, I already listed her once; I wasn't going to lose her again to Zane, and this felt like a good way to eliminate my competition. I know that deep down in that innocent heart of yours, you are judging me, saying I am wicked, and seriously... I don't mind at all. You can think whatever you want to. All I was trying to do was just to make sure I did

    *********************Lena's POV As we navigated our way through the forest, trying to locate where I had seen Adrian while I was scanning the maze with my powers, the fortress became serious and dead quiet. It was a dangerous sign that we were entering a heavily guarded area, but I was slightly confused. I didn't see this place where I was scanning. Getting closer, I got to understand that it was because the dark magic covering this particular area was a very thick and strong one that my light couldn't penetrate through, probably because I didn't tap into the right amount of light magic. I just felt like I didn't need much of it to scan through it's why I didn't tap into much light. But I then understood that I was supposed to tap into as much as I could. We were fixed to confront a smaller group of minions in a very brief but intense fight.Ethan was the one who handled most of the combat combining his wolf strength with his skills of handling a weapon. I used my magical powers t

My heart pounded, and I tried to keep myself composed, knowing Adrian was somewhere nearby. There was a serious debate in my mind. I was wondering if I could use my magic to cloak my presence, but I feared I might alert Zane if I couldn't get it right. I knew that every step we took brought us closer to the danger we would eventually have to face. I still had a deep contemplation of the matter, wondering if there was a way I could avoid Zane and not fight him. The whole fortress seemed to be fortified with his dark magic. I could feel the weight of its presence weighing strongly on me.As we continued deeper into the fortress, we began to see more groups of Zane's minions. Now it was really obvious that Zane had already felt my pre
