Poor Jesse. She's got it rough like Ares. Guys I don't know what's up with the writing website. It was holding chapter 68, 69 hostage. The issue is resolved now. I hope you get a chance and are able to go back and read those.
Augustus' P.O.V. "What's wrong with her?" I asked Ares as I stared down at Jesse on the clinic bed. There were a total of 4 beds in the school clinic, seeing as many of us have natural healing abilities, not many need to use this place. Ares sighed. I could tell this was killing him, too. It was just us two in here with her, with the nurse not allowing anyone other than family to come in. I think Liam was ready to toss the nurse out the window and come to be at Jesse's side. His wolf was beyond restless, and at first I thought he was acting too insane, but once we entered the room Ares, let me know that Jesse will be his mate in less than 2 months. It explains a lot, and frankly, I'm happy about it. I like the wolf over the vampire. Cassandra has given me a bad taste with vampires. I mean, Cas seems fine, but his sister is too crazy, and they were raised together, so they gotta be similar in some ways, right? "It's the bond. It's starting to weaken her. Damon hasn't accepted the
Nova's P.O.V. I watched as Damon wiggled, trying to free himself from the water. Water is fluid, moving along with him, keeping him shackled. His jaw ticked in anger, as he could not escape. He knew he was in trouble. I could see the concern, deep in his blue eyes. Manny stepped forward, placing his hand on Damon's shoulders. Damon was smart and avoided eye contact with him and me. He knew all we needed was for him to meet our eyes for just a moment, for us to enter his mind. Unbeknownst to him, touching works just as well, if not better. Manny narrowed his eyes in concentration as he began to root around Damon's mind. "How many copies of the video do you have?" I asked, making Damon's thoughts focus on the video. Even if he was trying to hold it back the moment I asked, his brain would immediately think of the answer. I could see Manny's nostrils flair in anger. He had found the answer, but it wasn't one he liked. "There are three copies. Two on campus and one in the shadow
Liam's P.O.V. It wasn't hard to find Damon's computer or log in. The idiot had his password written on his laptop. What kind of moron can't remember their own password for something they use daily? I rolled my eyes at the thought. His friend was a little harder to get to, but with a threat from Auggie, he was more than willing to comply. The only thing left to do is to delete the video from Damon's dad. I can't believe he even has a copy. How could Damon send that to his dad? It's fu.cking sick. As we were trying to come up with a way to get to his house without him noticing, our phones pinged. I saw a video texted from an unknown number with Damon's face on the still image. My face was beaming as Damon told a whopper of a lie. I don't know how Nova pulled it off, but she got Damon to say those moans were him. It was the sweetest revenge for the audio clip he sent out. "Think he has silent alarms?" I asked Auggie as we looked at the large house that belonged to Damon's father.
Andy's P.O.V. Classes had gone and went by quickly today. I sadly had little interaction with Ares, who seemed to be a busy bee today. I saw him buzzing about the campus, but never got to him in time before he traveled out. It seemed almost like he was avoiding me, but I'm sure it's just my overthinking. Ares wouldn't do something like that, right? "Thanks for meeting me here, Andy. I didn't want to give it to you in class, just in case you'd be embarrassed or something." Oz told me as he scratched the back of his head, ruffling his jet black hair that hung just above his ears in layers. "Why would I be embarrassed?" I asked with a smile as I grabbed his royal blue and gold jersey. He wore the number 3 on his jersey. He had recently washed it for me to wear at the game today. It seemed 3 sizes too large, which let me know it would definitely fit even if not correctly. It made sense with King being a larger guy. He had broad shoulders and slenderly toned muscles. His tall figure
Jesse's P.O.V. I could feel my blood pumping, ready to watch the action. I loved this game so much. You could never tell what was going to happen when someone went through a ring. There were no rules against fighting, just as long as you stayed in your element. You fight to get the ball, using whatever means necessary to do so, and then you get going. You can hit the same ring twice since the same thing never happens twice. The best thing to do is to hit 9 of the rings, leaving the easiest for last. When you're in the lead, you hit the last ring, ending the game with your team winning. It was smart, considering sometimes the rings would be more of a hindrance than an advantage. It allowed you to hit a ring and possibly gain more points. I watched as the cannon sounded and Liam's gigantic wolf emerged. His wolf had copper fur, with patches of white and deep yellow eyes. I used to love to pet him in wolf form when we were younger. I still do. There was something off about Liam today.
Ares’ P.O.V. “Sorry, I froze you for a little while. I thought we could get lucky.” Percy shrugged as he spoke to Nova and Manny. He was sporting a wide grin, recounting stories of the game like we weren’t all there. His laughter was contagious and so was his energy. We were all riled up tonight, filled with excitement and joy. I looked into Andy’s future before she left, feeling a bit worried about her going with Oz. I was worried the excitement in the air would bring them trouble, but that didn’t look to be the case. She seemed like she was going to have a good time with Oz. I was happy for her, but I had this odd feeling in my chest at the thought. I know grandma has been training her, and she says that Andy has been doing great. She’s tough even if she doesn’t show it much. “Eh, it was better than the burning.” Nova laughed, waving her hand off. Auggie was right by her side. They weren’t holding each other, but they were standing close enough that their shoulders kept brushi
Augustus' P.O.V. I woke up with a splitting headache. Percy drank me from under the table. I should have known better than to challenge a wolf to a drinking contest. My fault, though. I rubbed my temples with my eyes closed, still lying in bed. Ares wants us to train on how to control the darkness today, but I am so damn hungover. Mom is going to kill me if she realizes it. I'm so dead.Dragging myself out of bed, I surveyed my unfamiliar environment and realized I wasn't in my bedroom. A feeling of dread filled me as I glanced around the area. Where the hell am I?“I see you finally woke up.” When she spoke, an instant sense of ease swept over me. Andy’s kind face smiled at me from her small white desk. “What am I doing here?”“Well, you passed out after about your 10th beer, so I brought you here since most everyone had left already. Oz helped me bring you up after I assured him you wouldn’t be waking up. You know, I still don’t understand why you didn’t let Bane burn off the e
Nova’s P.O.V. “What took you so long?” I asked Andy as she strode over to me. “Had an unexpected guest this morning.” She laughed. “Oh?” I arched a brow, wanting her to continue. “Augustus, I couldn’t get him to his room, so Oz helped me put him in my room.” “Hmm, I see.” I didn’t mean to, but I let my jealous tone slip. I know Andy and I know she wouldn’t do anything, especially not with Augustus, but I couldn’t help the possessiveness I felt for a moment. “You know nothing happened. I slept in my roommate’s bed when she never showed up. Augustus was dead drunk and passed out. How is Manny?” She asked me, reminding me why she had to take care of Auggie after I left. “Embarrassed,” I laughed. “He regrets drinking so much. He said something odd last night. Maybe you can help me make sense of it?” “Sure, what is it?” “He said ‘When the blood moon comes we will make our move.’ I am not sure what he meant,” I tapped my finger on her chin as I thought back to Manny’s drunken
