All Chapters of Sphinx : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Gretchen swings her blades stylishly like the center of attraction in a choreographic display. She moves as fast and gentle as the wind and her blades create sounds as they cut through the air, missing her target, Gabriel’s head. Gabriel dodges her attacks; he is at a disadvantage as he finds little space to return an attack of his own. His glowing blue eyes move left to right, creating little traces of light in this dark building, their fight looks like a dance similar to the Chinese martial arts dance, one dodging and the other attacking. The werewolf charge toward Marcel who dodges his attacks and lands a blow to its midsection and Warren tosses a brick at it, hitting his mark on its head. The werewolf is enraged but Marcel shows no fear. Before his betrayal he had been in so many fights alongside Count Dracula, a measly dog like the one before him is nothing compared to the horrors he has seen in his lifetime. The werewolf jumps over Marcel and lunges at Warren, the detect

“Long time no see, John Williams” Marcus calls his name with an unknown familiarity making Lucas stare in bewilderment.“What is this?” Lucas asks, “John here, has been an ally of our family for six decades now.He served with our father in World War II,” the head of the Tremblays says.“How come I am just finding out about this?” Lucas demands an answer, “Not everything is known, Luke” he answers apathetically. “We need to talk John. Tell me what happened to my sister” Marcus turns his attention to the chained vampire.“You could have just asked politely but you went ahead to kidnap me,” John says, burying his anger underneath an emotionless face.“Talk,” Lucas pressures on, “Lucas,” Marcus calls his name out and his younger brother quenches his anger like sand over a fire.“John,” he urges the vampire to speak.“At the very least, you can let me down” John demands, “The reason I have not chopped you into little pieces is because of the history you and our family share,” Marcus says

       Kate Martin-Tremblay’s jaw drops as she hears her name, Rachael McQueen, she looks like Mary.   Kate sees Mary’s reflection in Rachael’s face and her hands shake with happiness. “Leave her,” Kate says.    She walks to the group with flair and hugs Rachael tightly. Rachael is confused, “Um… who are you?” “I am your aunt, Kate Martin-Tremblay.   It is nice to meet you,”. Rachael smells the cigarette on Kate’s lips, “My aunt?” “Yes. I’m sure your mother did not tell you much about her side of the family. Follow me, but they stay behind” Kate refers to the supernatural creatures with her. “They are my friends, we came he

Cassandra feels pain around her body as she regains consciousness. She tries to move her hands but they are tied behind her back. She cannot see because of the black bag over her head. She tries to remain calm as her ears and nose assess her dark surroundings giving her an image of the situation. She drags her butt against the grass. She knows she isn’t far from where she intends to be. She perceives two strange scents close to her, these scents are familiar to the werewolf, “Vampires,” she mutters. “Werewolf,” Bryan says, “You are awake,” she says, “Shut up,” a voice says as a combat boot goes crashing into Cassandra’s side. “Shut up freaks,” a guard says as he points his gun at them. Marcus, Kate and Lucas go outside to have a private conversation while Elena sits with Rachael at the table. “I heard your mom was a badass,” Elena says with a cheerful smile which makes Rachael feel uneasy. “Don’t worry, the worst that can happen is for them to kill your friends but they won

Samuel stands confused at the doorway as the scene looks strange to him. He was pumped up for a fight after Marcel came to inform him about the attack on Gabriel. So seeing his brother and the hunters conversing seems strange. Something here feels off. He can see that John is bruised and battered but what troubles him is Rachael’s presence. What is she doing here? Samuel’s nose picks on the smell of bullet shells and he sees the wall of the cabin that has been damaged. What happened? What made the hunters stop attacking Gabriel? He enters the cabin, observing the people in the room with side glances. Rachael rushes to Samuel’s side and hugs him. Her body is soft against his and her scent gives him a strong and soft chill in his chest. But this turns to sadness when he thinks of how it could be so easy to take her away from him. He notices that her shirt is torn in the chest and he touches it. “A gunshot,” he mumbles and his face turns into a frown. He looks at his broth
