"Aiden Thorne. You found her."

"Yes, Makayla. I have, and she's nothing like I imagined."

"So, did you call to let me know that you've ended her?"

"No. She is in danger and I need to know why."

"And when that is resolved, what will you do with her?"

"Everything. Or nothing at all."

Conversation between Aiden Thorne and Makayla Mien

______________________________________________

ALLY’s POV

Needless to say, I ended up hitching a ride with Aiden to Idris.

I don't know why I thought it was a good idea at the time.

Scratch that. I didn't think. I just acted and now Caleb's blocking me from mind-linking him.

Now, here I was, seated in Aiden's car, staring out the window at the trees and birds flying in the sky. It'd been five hours and neither of us had uttered a word to each other.

I didn't even know what to say to him.

What do you say to a vampire who clearly doesn't want to talk?

The silence in the car was deafening and on impulse, I reached out and turned on the radio, going throug

    "This gift that we have, seeing the past and/or the future is a blessing. And it is also a curse, but what it is most of all is a responsibility. Krionas are a vital part of the supernatural community. We can make and we can destroy with a single statement. You have been blessed with this vision by the Creator, but what you have seen is delicate. Guard it carefully. You will know to wield this knowledge when the time is right."Makayla Mien to student, Dahlia, three years ago. _________________________________________________________Ally’s POVI yawned and sat up on the bed, stretching my arms.

    "The sub-councils agree that this is the only way, Tamara.""By only way, you mean hunting and killing Aiden like he's some sort of rabid dog!""We will have war on our hands again if we don't stop him. He has gone insane.""Anyone would if they were in his place, Jacob. He was starved and tortured for months in that dark place. By the people who murdered his family. We couldn't save him from them in time. You couldn't save him.""I'm trying to save him now!""I'm scared that it might be too late for that."Conversation between Jacob Thorne and Tamara Thorne, two years after the Great Purge. _________________________________________________________Tamara’s POVHours EarlierI opened my eyes to see my cousin staring out the window of my bedroom.

    "So, I have a theory. The bigger the fire you create, the stronger your migraine and the quicker you slip into unconsciousness."Caleb (19) to Ally (18)_________________________________________________________Ally’s POVI was in the woods, sitting at the foot of one of the trees, my hands stretched out as if to receive something. My eyes were wide open and even though I didn't see them, I heard whispers."Should I tell her?" The voice sounded awfully like my mother's and I craned my head to hear more. "You cannot. She is too young to know of the price she will pay if she knows the truth." Another voice, feminine but firm. "Is there no other way to prevent her from this fate? How do I-" My heart broke when I heard quiet sobs coming from my mother. "Please, do not be afraid. You are doing a great thing. For me. For her. For all of us."I opened my eyes to a dark room and was welcomed with a severe headache. My body felt numb and I tried to grasp my surroundings as well as remember

    ”My darling, I hope that after you see this video that you do not hate me for taking so long to tell you the truth and that it is not too late ..."Video file by A.H. ALLY’s POVI woke up with a slight headache to find Caleb sitting on the bed, his hands behind his head, eyes currently fascinated with the ceiling. His favorite thinking position. The obnoxious child in me wanted to scream and startle him, the image of him tumbling off the bed and landing on the ground amusing, but when I opened my mouth to speak, all that came out was a squeak and hello, headache. So much for thinking it was slight. Caleb's eyes moved immediately and we stared at each other for what felt like hours and it was like the part of me that wanted to cry finally decided to show up. I didn't try to stop myself and when he gathered me up in his arms, rocking me slowly the way he always did when I cried, my quiet sobs increased until I knew he would have to change his shirt after this encounter."I've got y

    Ally’s POVI could smell them.The overwhelming stench of rotting skin."Rogues." I whispered but clearly the two women heard me because Trinidad chuckled darkly. "I see you have started relying on your strengths, girl. Too bad you won't last." she said so calmly and if I didn't know better, I'd think she was still sane."What have you done? How could you?" Makayla yelled. I was on my feet in an instant, standing beside her."I did what nobody dared do. I embraced my destiny. My power. Your reign of weakness is over, my lady. I will not let you continue to be weak." "So you let rogues into Idris. It is our sacred duty to protect the inhabitants and ourselves. This is our home." Trinidad shrugged and when she shot me a glance, a smirk made its way to her lips at my confused state. I saw her whisper some words and suddenly a ball of fire danced in her open palm. "That's impossible. Krionas don't-" "Do magic? Oh we do, Allyson." I looked at Makayla for answers."Krionas can do magi

    "It's called the Abyss. Common amongst gifted with mind related abilities, it is a state in which the individual is able to use his/her gift at frighteningly optimal levels and for a long stretch without stopping. The downside of being in this state is the temporary loss of emotion, conscience and in the worst case, lack of recognition of loved ones. A Gifted in the abyss may attack loved ones the same way as he would an enemy."Except from "The Gifted Mind" by Irish vampire scientist Dr Alice Kerry. _____________________________________________ALLY’s POVI'd never truly believed the stories about Aiden Thorne. I didn't even believe him when he'd said he was a monster. But right now, I completely understood what they'd seen that had made even the fiercest men cower at the mere mention of his name. He didn't look any different. Even bathed in blood, his fascinating blue-gray eyes now a swirling black, he was still the most gorgeous man I'd ever laid eyes on. Vampirism definitely h

You are the only telekinetic who has been in that state repeatedly." "And what did you tell her, Tamara?""That she'd be dead the instant you enter that state.

    Dahlia’s POVIt'd been weeks since she disappeared. The local news had reported an explosion in the mountainous uninhabited area of Yukon and there was a hole in the ice. Nothing had been found. No bodies. No castle. Nothing but ashes in the snow. Aiden and Caleb were found in the woods in Fairfield by the Reyes vampires, barely conscious and agony written over their faces as they struggled to accept the reality of what Allyson had done. Post explosion, more rogues and black witches had been caught and killed thanks to the information Renee had given Caleb, the whereabouts of Ian Sinclair, the only known hybrid a mystery after he'd spoken to Caleb who'd shakily passed along a message from his dead friend, Renee. The last time I'd spoken to him, he'd been cold and distant, muttering 'I shouldn't have promised her.'Aiden Thorne had disappeared, his whereabouts known only by his cousin Tamara who looked grim anytime I asked about his state.

    Ally’s POVThe last person I expected to see when I opened my eyes was sitting in front of me. Hale and hearty. Caleb. My best friend. My best friend who'd told me he was in love with me. My best friend who'd let them take me. I shifted away from him almost immediately and he looked hurt. "Allyson, look–""No, Caleb, you look." I showed him my cuffed hands and he winced. "They said it was to stop you from hurting yourself. All the times I came to see you, you were unconscious.""Because they were drugging me, Caleb. I don't even understand. I feel like I don't know you anymore. How could you have betrayed me like that?"His face turned to the side like I'd slapped him. I wished I did. "Betrayed you? You think I did this because I wanted to betray you? Why would even believe that?" "So, what the hell happened?" "The day I picked up Renee from the airport, she said something about helping us in whatever way she could and when I questioned it, she said she didn't do it for me. Tha

    ALLY’s POV"Wake up, lovebirds." The sound of glasses clinking together made me force my eyes open despite the throbbing headache and blurry vision. I was tied to a chair that was turned sideways, placing me in direct line of sight of Aiden's barely conscious form tied to another chair. "It makes me sad to keep you both sedated but that is the way it must be, we can't have this one–" Dorothea Marin finally appeared in my line of vision as she walked towards Aiden, lifting his face up and placing a soft kiss on his mouth. Biting her lip with his fang, Aiden opened his eyes and glared at her, seemingly forgetting that hurting her would hurt me. She smiled, cupped his jaw and turned his head until he was looking in my direction to see the cut on my bottom lip where he'd bitten her slowly close up. His eyes were hazy, the grey of his blue-grey eyes seemingly vanished beneath the blue that looked even darker as the light from the fireplace illuminated his face. "What did you do to him

    ALLY’S POVI'd counted the number of people I'd walked past as Dorothy led me through the corridors of what she called 'The Love Castle'. Twenty. Rogue vampires and wolves. And witches. I didn't recognize any of them. They seemed to know who I was and some lingered to stare at me before resuming on their way. Apparently, I was the only one who'd done something to deserve being in chains. After the revelation that Aiden was coming here, I'd shoved all of her supposed truths to the back of my mind. I was in denial. It was either that or believe all that she'd said when I was still finding it very difficult to wrap my head around what Renee Falls had revealed to me. Everyone around me seemed to have some shocking revelation whenever I was present. There was a scar on my right palm from where a witch who'd claimed to be blood of my blood had sliced me open. I assumed if I was crazy enough to believe Dorothy, it meant she was a Marin witch too. She'd done the same thing to Dorothea an

    "There's been an attack, Aiden.""Where?" "Quebec. Rogue sightings. Uncle says his people have it under control. It seems the Gomez pack and the Benets are also having disagreements. Territory related." "The Alpha of the Gomez Pack is Grayson. Is it not?" "What are you thinking?" "Distractions. Distractions from the real plan, Tamara. If the factions are too busy fighting others–""No one will be as interested in the hybrids that are supposed to be myth."______________________________________________ALLY’s POVI'd spent most of my life dealing with involuntary unconsciousness after every fire incident. My ability crippled me, controlled me without my will. It was no wonder why I hated being forced into doing things I didn't want to do. Like being injected into unconsciousness. And being forced out of said unconsciousness. I should've been hysterical after everything that happened with Renee. I should've started the hysteria the moment I walked into a lake and came out in the hi

The instant I opened my eyes, I knew I wasn't alone. I was chained to a bed, silver cuffs holding my hands to the headboard. I was dizzy, nauseous and my vision was blurry but I could make out the shape of the woman standing by the window, with her back to me wearing a red cloak. Sniffing, my blood ran cold. Vampire. Not Tamara. The memories of the last thing that happened before I lost consciousness hit me like an arrow to the heart. Caleb had betrayed me. I shook my head, trying to believe that wasn't the case, trying to see it from his point of view.Whoever fed him those lies, that's who was to blame, right? I was sure that he'd believed he was doing it for my own good. After all, I needed whomever had the Deanton to break the curse and I needed the blood of a Marin witch. They had two of the elements, I had two. The moo

    If you're reading this, it means that you finally opened the locket, my love. My prognosis is bad and I'm afraid that I don't have much time left to wait till you've come of age. I'm so sorry that I hid the truth from you for such a long time but it was the best I could do, that we could do to protect you. To make sure you stayed alive. If you've not already figured this out, I'll tell you. Christian and I are not your biological parents. I never got a chance to meet your father but your mother was the sweetest person there was and no, she didn't abandon you. She needed a place to hide you from some really bad people that wanted to take you because you were special and different. Like your real father was. She took her last breath after cradling you in her arms. I'm sorry that I couldn't save her like she saved Kara's life all those years ago, but I promised to protect you and love you like my own till fate came for you.

It was a park situated not too far from where the festival had happened that night. Remembering nothing, I'd turned to leave but he'd held my hand and now we were sitting on a bench, watching the sunset. "Where'd you apply to? For college." Not allowing my surprise that he'd chosen to fill the silence with a random question show, I took a deep breath and answered as honestly as I could. It was the least I could do since I was pl

    Tamara’s POV"When do you think we should go in?" I asked Aiden. For someone who'd just heard that the lover he'd tried to kill had instead lived, he looked better than most, his hands clasped as his face remained calm. The forever apathetic mask. We were sitting in the coffee shop opposite the house, after returning from Curt Reyes' home. Neither them nor the king wolves had found any trail that would lead us to locating the Marin witches. And now that we knew they were making use of portals, that changed a lot of things. According to the witch order, the Marin witches stopped existing after majority of them were killed after the Great Purge. Unsaid were the words, by a certain A-telekinetic. Said telekinetic that looked like he'd been about to drop dead after hearing that he'd failed in carrying out his revenge. "They need some time to talk without worrying about us hearing them." He answered, referring to Allyson and Caleb. "How did you know all of those things that you and Ally
