Bait
Cale had gotten off two shots before Gibbon caught up to him, and Cadence held her breath as she watched her friend duck into one of the cells, slamming the door behind him. Gibbon looked longingly at the heavy wooden door before letting out a groan and continuing on his way down the cell block. Clearly, he was after easier prey—or just trying to get out now—and Cale would be too much trouble. She was glad the doctor had made that decision; it looked as if Shane and Meagan were both going to need medical attention, and Jamie wouldn’t be able to do all of that alone.
They had

Gibbon was far enough ahead of them that by the time they reached the spoke he had disappeared down, Cadence wasn’t sure if he had stayed on the first level or went up to the top. There should be no exit at the end of the hall either way, so theoretically, he should be trapped. Of course, he had just been surrounded a few minutes ago, too, and what good had that done them? Still, she thought the silver had to be weakening him, and maybe if they could keep him in the building long enough, shoot him enough times, she could get close enough to him to decapitate him.Somehow, she managed to
The Clandestine Saga Attack
Cassidy watched as her sister hurled herself off of the second story and landed precisely on the back of the Vampire, but she also knew she was hurt now, and Cassidy was tired of waiting. “He’s coming this way,” she said to Christian, letting go of him and crossing her arms, hoping he didn’t notice anything as she slipped her right hand into her left pocket quickly and then recrossed her arms.“Yes, but Elliott’s got Brandon, Hannah, Morgan, and Aurora out there now. They’ll slow him down enough for Cadence and Aaron to catch up to him,” he said,
The Clandestine Saga Lured
Cadence watched as her sister lured Gibbon into the tiny ticket room, aware that if any of them tried to force their way in, he would likely hurt Cassidy, possibly kill her. While she couldn’t tell exactly what Cassidy’s angle was, and she heard many of her teammates exclaiming that Cassidy had flipped, she knew that wasn’t the case. She had no way of knowing Cassidy had stolen a grenade from Christian until Gibbon burst into flame. Even then, however, he wouldn’t die. Once he shattered the windows and shot off for the front entryway, she took a deep breath, and holding her hand to her side, took off after him. Though all of Andrew’s people were still out there, it was really down to Elliott now.

The basement was dark and dank, though nothing like Eastern State Penitentiary. Compared to that hellhole, these inmates were living large, and as Jamie paused, his hand about to activate the lock on the door, Elliott looked over his shoulder at Aaron who gave him a reassuring nod, and then he gestured for the doctor to unlock the cell.The door opened, and Elliott waited in the shadows for a second, wanting the anticipation, the fear, to build, before he revealed himself. There were no windows in the cell and only one bare light bulb hanging from a chain in the middle of the room above a smal
The Clandestine Saga Rise of a Queen
The room was dark, just the way she liked it, and as she sat on the makeshift throne she’d had her minions construct as soon as she’d entered the premises, she began to tap her fingernails impatiently on the chair railing. The time was almost nigh, of that she was certain, but it would be a few moments more, and she almost couldn’t contain the excitement she felt pulsating inside. Thoughts of what would happen the moment she sat anticipating came to fruition had her mouth watering and her teeth sharp, though not for the usual reasons.The demons that had greeted Asteria when
The Clandestine Saga Something is Out There
The sky above the forest seemed to have swallowed up the stars, and the remnants of the moon did little to light the way as Delilah Lewis drew in her breath and cautiously waded down to the shore of the river. She was careful not to slip on the rocks her father had just warned her about two seconds earlier. If she had her cell phone with her, she could use it as a flashlight, but her dad had insisted, “No electronics on the camping trip.” She knew he relished days like this, and even though it was fairly warm outside for February, Delilah didn’t want to let him know how absolutely miserable she was already, just one day into the long weekend.

Dax Forest was made to be a park ranger. That’s what his friends always said, anyway. Not only had he been one of the youngest boys in his troop to reach Eagle Scout, he had the perfect name for someone who liked to spend the majority of his time outdoors. That’s why when he’d decided to forgo college and take this opportunity to become a park ranger the year before, no one had been surprised.When he was younger, his father had taught him how to fish and hunt, how to survive outside. In fact, he was often far ahead of the rest of his Boy Scout friends and earned all of his b
The Clandestine Saga Run
The sound of her shoes hitting the treadmill was a noise Cadence Findley had grown to love over the last year and a half. Sometimes she didn’t even listen to music when she worked out, preferring to focus on the sound of her rubber soles thunking against the endless black road beneath her feet. She knew she was running particularly fast when it sounded like a heavy deluge was falling, and by now she could usually tell when she’d reached thirty-five miles per hour without even glancing at the numbers because it had a certain… cadence to it.Today, she was preoccupied
