All Chapters of The Clandestine Saga: Chapter 471 - Chapter 480

The Melbourne team, along with Margie and Grant, set up a perimeter around the bottom of the department store while the KC team used the same fire escape Paul had climbed not that long ago to make their way to the rooftop. With three Guardians and four Hunters on the ground, as well as four overly-protective Guardians and Cadence alongside her, Cassidy would have a decent chance of figuring out where Paul was before anything could get through all of them. Of course, as Cadence looked out over the short brick wall that served as the only barrier between herself and a sharp drop to the ground below, she wasn’t completely convinced it would be enough to stop anything Holland and Carter threw their way.Cassidy took a seat on the rooftop about where she supposed Paul would’ve been standing. Her legs were crisscrossed, her eyes closed tightly. And about the time she seemed to fall into some sort of self-induced trance, Cadence noticed a fog began to roll in, encapsulat

Moments later, Elliott managed to get rid of the mist monster whose last cry was much more mournful. The thought, “Eight more and Carter,” filled her mind, and she knew it was not her own.Once she was on her feet, Elliott nodded at her, and they jogged ahead. In front of them, Margie was in full hand-to-hand combat with what could only be described as a ninja. He had a lone, long braid anchored in the center of his head, and Cadence assumed this was where the star that had almost hit her in the face must’ve come from. Margie was more than holding her own, though, as he twirled and kicked at her. One roundhouse after another from the spunky Guardian had him backing up, and Cadence knew she’d find a way to decapitate him, even if she had to chop his head off with her own blade-like hands.“That’s Jamie’s sister?” Elliott asked, clearly as impressed as she was. Jamie was an amazing Healer but wasn’t

Cadence didn’t have to look far to find Carter. He was standing off in the distance between two buildings, down an alley. She turned to face him head on, her shoulders back in defiance. Even from here, she could see his eyes were almost the color of night, his hair just a shade lighter. He was probably even more handsome now than he had been that night so long ago when he’d taken Drew from her. She’d killed him in a fit of rage the first time, and facing him now, she still felt the same fury welling up inside of her. How dare he claim the life of her innocent friend? Knowing what Aaron had told her earlier, that this had been about Cadence all along, not just a chance encounter at a party Drew heard about by accident, made her blood boil, and as she stared at him, she was determined to end him once more and send him back to where he’d come from.When she’d first seen Carter standing there, he had a look of defeat about him, as if he realized his

It wasn’t until they were screaming down the street that Elliott asked, “What the hell are you doing here?”“Cass sent me back. We met up with Patsy down the street, and her and Jamie got in with them,” he explained, taking a corner too fast. Cadence was wedged between Margie and Aaron in the back seat so she didn’t slide very far, but she had a feeling there would be more crazy driving before they could get out of this mess.“Don’t they have us surrounded?” Aaron asked, using Elliott’s head rest to pull himself forward so he could better see out the windshield.“Yep,” Brandon answered as a line of ghouls came into view in front of them, about a half mile down the road. The thinning fog obscured them a bit, but Carter’s death had left Holland reeling, and she hadn’t seemed to regain her composure yet. There had to be at least twenty Vampires of all shapes and sizes standing in fr

Cassidy sat in her chair atop the apartment building looking off in the distance, feeling the world around them to see how close the Vampires were now. A few weeks had passed, and she knew they were still out there, but this had become a standoff, a long game, not a simple flash in the pan attack, and every day, as more Guardians arrived from the settlement in Roatan, the Vampires became more nervous. She could feel it rolling off of them, but she could also hear it in their chatter.LIGHTS was planning an attack now, an epic one, and Holland knew it. Cassidy spent too much time in the Vampire queen’s head. She always knew when she was there, but she couldn’t hide her thoughts. The ancient creature was prepared to throw everything she had at the ones who had taken her lover from her twice now, and in her mind, she believed she’d find a way to wipe all of them from the Earth, even the Guardians.She was no closer now than she had been when they’d
