Ares' P.O.V. 

My birthday ended amazingly. Mom seemed okay when we left. She seemed determined and ready to fight these dark forces. The clover turned to dust this morning, ending the powerful luck magic. I don’t care though, today I get to go off campus with Nova and Gabriel. I won't let anything ruin my day. 

I put the pearl away last night in my shadow with the other items my dad gifted me. I planned to use the pearl once we have most of the items to break the curse. I want to know what to do with them. I get the feeling he will have the answers I need. I am not set on that though. If I need to see him before that, then I will. 

I still can't believe Andy was able to give me a gift like that. I can't believe she remembered my birthday as well. She was the only one, aside from my parents, that remembered. She's such an amazing person, even knowing a great witch to help. I wasn't su

    Jesse's P.O.V.Ares: Jesse, don't test it, just do what I say.I sucked my teeth as I read his text. I was feeling strong and like myself again. Having Umbra has really helped. I've been training with Umbra any time I get the chance, whether mentally or physically. I think this is the first time I've used Umbra physically though. I feel powerful right now, urging me to hurt Damon."Somehow I knew you'd be here. " A familiar voice had me breaking my focus on my phone. I turned around, finding Cas with his arms crossed, leaning against the tree. He had that playful smirk on his face again as he watched me. His silver hair defied gravity with the way it stood up all around his head."What are you doing here?" I arched a brow at him. I never did set him straight after our kiss. I honestly hadn't seen him since then, or even texted.

    Augustus' P.O.V."She's safe now!" Ares flung a vampire across the clearing, causing him to crash into a tree."Well that's just peachy, but we're in deep shi.t here if we don't leave soon!" I yelled back across to him as two vampires fell into my trap. I had them smack into each other with great enough force to knock them out."She's coming for you now. She's pissed that Jesse got away from her. She's going to take it out on you. You better tap into Sombra's abilities for this one." He warned me, without needing to tell me who.I can't remember if she told me her name or not. I probably wouldn't remember it even if she did. I'm just gonna keep calling her crazy bi.tch. I hate vampires, they're just like mosquitos. They buzz around all annoying like trying to get to your blood. They are hard to catch too, but once you have them in sight they are easy to squish.

    Nova's P.O.V.“Manny, who is Aleah?” I finally blurted out as we sat at the bottom of the pond, looking up at the surface. We’d been talking about random things for a while, and I tried to subtly get him to tell me, but he was either ignoring my hints or just not catching them.“Who?” He feigned ignorance.“I promise it wasn’t my intention to eavesdrop, but..” Manny gave me a side eye. “Fine, it was totally my intention, but I heard you with her in your room. What’s going on, Manny? Why did you leave your coven? Who’s the girl you’re protecting?”These questions had been burning in my mind since I overheard them talking. Manny, sat up on the rock we’d been lying on. He narrowed his eyes at me for a moment, before sighing, causing air bubbles to lift to the surface.

    Jesse's P.O.V."Cas." I moaned his name as he pushed me against the tree beside the tavern. I had us hidden away in the shadows. I felt him smile as he kissed my neck."I like hearing my name leave your lips, sexy." He whispered into my neck, before he licked it. "Tell me what you want? I'll give it to you."His voice was so seductive and his touches were turning me on. My body didn't crave his skin the same way it craves Damon's, but I was just fine with that. He was skilled, even if the feelings he brought from me weren't as intense as the ones Liam brought out of me. I don't need intense right now. I need simple, easy, comforting, and that's what Cas is."Fu.ck me, until I yell your name as I come down from my high." I wasn't shy as I told him exactly what I wanted without so many words."I was hoping you'd say that." He gave me that ha

    Liam’s P.O.V.“You’re so infuriating.” I rolled my eyes at Percy as he hopped from one tree to another in his large wolf form. He was a freaking hyper as/s puppy.He turned around, his tongue sticking out of his mouth. His eyes were always off putting in his wolf form. There were no pupils or irises to stare into, it was like staring into a deep void. Despite that, I could see an excited gleam in them.“Oh no. Don’t you dare!” I yelled at him as he lunged at me, licking my face before I could stop him. “Gross!”I pushed him off me with my shadow, wiping my face off his drool. He howled excitedly. We’d beaten most of the vampires we’d run into as we searched for Jesse. I didn’t think they would go on an all-out raid to find her. There’s more to this than some stupid rumor. I don’t get

    Are’s P.O.V.“There you go, that should keep her from entering your room.” I told Auggie as I finished burning the last ruin into the doorframe of his dorm. “The ones on your wrist should keep her from controlling you again. I say ‘should’ because there are still times in the future that I see her taking control of you.”Auggie stared at the black ink on his wrist that I had seared there with his shadow. I still can’t believe how stubborn this Cassandra chick is. She isn’t used to not winning and it’s driving her mad. She wants Auggie to submit to her now, but I’ll try to make sure that doesn’t happen. I stopped looking into Jesse’s future for a little while after I saw her with Cas.That’s an image I wish I could burn away.“Thanks.” Auggie sighed. I could tell he was

    Augustus’ P.O.V.Ares disappeared before us, giving me the alone time I needed with Nova. I’ll need to apologize to him for yelling. The worry just ate at me and I snapped. I need to get better. I couldn’t let Nova go. My heart had shattered thinking she was dying. When Ares said he couldn’t see her future anymore, I was so sure she had died on me. I can’t let her go. I have to keep her safe. I have to have her in my life.“Nova, I know I am a shi.t friend. I know I explode on you a lot. I know that you think all I want is sex from a girl, but can you forget all that for a second and just listen to what I have to say?” I need her to hear me this time.“I’m listening.” She dug her head into my neck more. Her naked body against mine was driving me wild, but I pushed that lustful side of me down, wanting to admit how I felt.

    Nova's P.O.V. Grandma Rain looked around at everyone with concern. The wrinkles on her forehead made her worries more obvious. I looked at Ares, needing this to go smoothly for his sake. He doesn't deserve this curse. My attention was splitting as I looked at Augustus. I had been smiling at the mark on my wrist since he placed it there. I couldn't believe it. "It's a hard list. As Lucy said, the first part to lifting this curse is to get the great witch that placed it to release the magic that holds it in place. It'll be more likely that you will have to kill her. In order to kill a great witch, you need a special sword. It's cliche, but it's called a witch killer. It's gold and needs 5 rare pearls to make the magic work. I am not sure where to find the sword, but I could ask the tree if-' "I have it already. Dad gave it to me as a gift this year. It has a pearl already." Ares cut Rain off. "Fu.cking, Percy." Zerena murmured with a smile. "That's great. You just need to find the

    Andy's P.O.V.5 months have passed now and Elara has grown right before our eyes at a very rapid rate. She now looks to be 4 rather than just 5 months. We knew it would happen from Percy's warning, but it was still alarming to see. She was breathtakingly beautiful, with her still white hair that curled softly around her. She had her mother's eyes which at first were hard to look into without remembering her. Now, all I see when I look at them is Elara. That same bright-moon silver dawned her eyes shimmering against her pale skin. Her rosy lips and crimson stained cheeks contrasted well with her all white appearance. "Mommy, I'm bored," she complained, coming to take a seat on my lap. "I know sweetheart, but I have to finish tending to these plants for my final, and daddy's in class right now, taking one of his finals. Would you like to help me? I can show you how to grow a plant with magic," I offered her with a smile. "Okay, Mommy!" She jumped excitedly, looking all kinds of ador

    Ares’ P.O.V.Elara stirred in my arms as she situated herself. My heart felt full with her in my arms. In a matter of seconds this child had me wrapped around her finger. She is my world, my heart, my everything. She and Andy take priority over everything in my life. I would kill for them. I would die for them. Seeing dad was an unexpected gift that both helped and eased my worries. I guess now it's time to tell mom and my other dad's. I don't know how they'll take it. Mom lost it when she found out what happened to me. I am worried how she'll react to Elara. I better do it now while I have the gale to do it. "I'm going to mom's, come with me?" I turned, asking them all. "You sure?" Auggie stepped forward, seeming concerned. "It's now or never. Besides, the longer I wait the more hurt she'll be." I looked into the future, seeing mom outside training. If I wait too long she'll be hurt that I didn't tell her. "Okay, then. Let's go." Jesse nodded. "This will probably be better if it

    Percy’s P.O.V. My dear son, I am so sorry this has happened to you. You finally lifted the curse I could not, yet here you stood with a baby in your arms. Much too young to raise a child, yet alone one with such great responsibility. They granted me one more visit, and I saved it for this day in case this future came to pass. I had hoped not, but he chose correctly, and I couldn’t be more proud. He didn’t think selfishly. He let his child be born, even though it was one he did not consent to. I made Ares much in the same way that he conceived his daughter. I can’t exactly say anything about that. None of it was the baby’s fault, anyway. I watched Ares as he looked on to that child, like she was his everything. It was a sad sight to see, knowing that his future would be just as hard as his past, if not more difficult, despite the curse being lifted. I couldn’t help the sadness that filled my heart. This was not the future I wanted for him, it was not the one I hoped for. I know he wi

    Augustus' P.O.V. Ares traveled us all back to the center of the maze, where just an hour before we had been having fun. That was the longest and most intense hour of my life. I'm not sure what happened those last few minutes of the battle. When things got dark we leaned into each other, and it unlocked something inside of Ares that we were all able to tap into. The feeling still lingered inside me, strengthening me with power and light. I scanned the area for Nova, but couldn't see her anywhere. She must have sensed me as a water portal opened before us, and Nova jumped out with Manny close behind. "I'm sorry I couldn't teleport you all out. I was only able to get Nova because we're mated. The dark forest hates relinquishing its prey," Manny explained with a guilty expression. "Thank you for rescuing her," I said, staring at Nova like she was my salvation. She's the only reason I live and breathe. She ran towards me, wrapping her arms around my neck. She sobbed into my chest, let

    Jesse's P.O.V. With the sword in its hand, the demon lunged forward towards Nova. It clawed at her, piercing her skin right over her thigh as she retreated too slowly. The demon tossed the sword, having it land on the ground, looking like an Excalibur sticking out of the earth. It shined mockingly from 20 feet away. It would have done us well if Nova could have had the chance to use it. "Jesse, can you do it?" Liam asked, already knowing that I couldn't, but desperately wanting me to. I shook my head no, hanging it in disappointment for a brief second. "Then know that I love you, forever into all eternity." He shifted into King before me, biting down onto the demon's head, only to be met with a loud yelp of pain. The demon's blood was burning his mouth as if he had taken a bite of hot magma. Liam let go of the demon instantly, using his paws to slash at it instead. He shook his head, trying to shake off the pain from his mouth. The heat from the demon someone felt to increase. I

    Nova’s P.O.V. The ghoul lunged, trying to bite a chunk of flesh off. I burned it away before me, turning it into a charred black lump. The smell of charred flesh permeated the air, and I felt my stomach turn in disgust. They already smelled bad, but it seemed burning them only made the stench worse. Auggie clasped my hand tightly as his fire coursed through me and combined with my own. Our fire joined when we became mated. There was no delay, no fight for control. It was natural, like an extension of myself. I blasted the ghouls as they approached, while Auggie tossed them with his shadows. My primary concern was the demon that stood at the edge of the woods. It seemed to watch, waiting for something, but I'm not sure what. I heard the baby cry in the cabin, earning not only the attention of some ghouls, but that of the demon as well. Ares seemed to pale as his eyes flashed and his face contorted with worry. Andy was in danger. I could tell by the change in his demeanor. He told L

    Andy's P.O.V. My worst nightmare played before me. Ares had been wrapped in dark smoke and pulled away from us before my eyes. I tried to reach for him, but found myself grabbing air. He was gone. I spun around seeing the same horrified expression on everyone's face. "We have to go!" I snapped everyone out of their shock. "I can travel us there now. I've been practicing with Umbra and we can use the darkness better," Jesse said, answering the question of how we would get there without anyone having to ask. "Then let's go," Auggie said, looking the most determined I had ever seen him. I felt the beast inside me stir as anger coursed through me. She could be hurting him this very instant. I need to save the love of my life before she does irreversible damage. I felt the familiar cold of shadow traveling wrap itself around me as the settings set around us. Jesse had managed to pull us through Ares' shadow door. There was no stumbling or searching through the woods for him this time.

    Ares' P.O.V. Andy's idea for her Christmas pity party was brilliant. I could feel the atmosphere changing around us, allowing for some laughter and joy to enter each of us. I know everyone is nervous and worried for me a lot. Hell, I'm scared, but with Andy by my side and Dad's words of encouragement, I think I can do this. I guess we'll see when she calls on me. I wonder though, when she calls me, will she call only me? Last time it was an accident that everyone came with me. I doubt she'd call them again, since they ruined her plans for me. I could see it in her eyes that night. She wasn't done with me. If she would have had her way, she would have raped me all night. She was determined to have a child, and for some reason she was determined to have that child with me. What if when she calls me again, she tries the same thing? The thought made my blood run cold and my body shiver. Andy noticed as she leaned in beside me, providing me with warmth only he touch brings me. She chas

    Augustus’ P.O.V. Christmas was approaching us sooner than we would have liked. Instead of enjoying the holiday season we had all been on pins and needles, just waiting for the day we would face that crazy dark witch again. Ares trains every day with Andy by his side. Nova and I have been focusing on our fire training to use during battle, while she and Manny have been training on her control over her sea witch magic. We don’t want her to be overtaken again. She had delved into the darkness the week she had turned away from me. It had almost permanently stained her soul, but with the help of Andy they were able to banish that darkness. Ares has been more on edge than usual. I know that he isn’t the only one. Jesse and I have been talking and practicing. We’ve been trying to figure out what Percy meant when he spoke about us holding one another when things get dark. We aren’t the most poetic bunch, so we didn’t come up with much. It didn’t help that Jesse told me about the prophecy sh
