Athena stood tall, her sword at the ready. The infected Lucas charged towards her, his eyes fixed on her with an unnerving intensity. She dodged his initial attack with ease, her movements fluid and graceful.

"Lucas, snap out of it!" she shouted, her voice piercing through the darkness. "Fight the infection, not me!"

Lucas's response was a snarl, his sword slicing through the air with deadly precision. Athena parried each blow with skill, her own sword flashing in the moonlight.

"You're stronger than this, Lucas," she said, her words laced with conviction. "Don't let the Order control you!"

For a moment, Lucas's eyes flickered, a glimmer of recognition sparking within. But the infection quickly consumed him again, his face twisting into a snarl.

Athena took advantage of the momentary lapse, striking back with a series of swift and precise blows. Lucas stumbled back, his movements faltering.

    Lucine entered the cottage, obviously worried. His face scrounged up in pain, his forehead sweating, his breathing uneven, as if he had been running. He burst out, “I was out on patrol but my heart was crying for Rosalind. I just parted with her an hour ago and could not understand the distress I was going to on her account. I just knew I had to come over, though it is late.” "Cathryn, what's happening? I sensed Rosalind's distress," Lucine said, his voice low and urgent.Cathryn stepped aside, allowing Lucine to enter. "She's had a vision, Lucine. A powerful one. She saw the Order's plan, their dark magic, and the potion they're using to infect werewolves."Lucine's gaze fell upon Rosalind's unconscious form, and he rushed to her side. "What's wrong with her? Why is she still out?"Cathryn's expression was worried. "The vision was too much for her. She's still learning to control her powers. I've never seen her like this before."Lucine's hands hovered over Rosalind's face, his touc

I won't let you die if I can help it."With a swift motion, Lucine ripped off Lucas's helmet, revealing a deep gash on his forehead. Rosalind rushed over, her gloved hand glowing with healing energy."Let me help," she said, her voice gentle. Lucine nodded, and Rosalind placed her hand on Lucas's wound. The healing energy flowed, closing the gash and restoring Lucas's strength.Lucas's eyes cleared, his gaze darting between Lucine and Rosalind. "Why are you doing this? We're on opposite sides." Lucine's voice was firm. "We may disagree, but we're not monsters. We'll always choose compassion over cruelty."Rosalind smiled. "Besides, we hope you'll see the truth and join us against the Order." Lucas's expression turned contemplative, his allegiances clearly wavering.Lucas's eyes rolled back, his body convulsing
