BLADE. “I want Althea to go back to Mystic Pack,” Patrea said calmly, and I felt my chest constricted. “No!” Althea exclaimed, and I growled the word at the same time. Althea’s head snapped in my direction, and her expression mirrored mine. She didn’t want to be far away from me. “I want to stay here with Blade,” Althea told them. “I know you want that, but it might not be safe for you. At least there, Lucy and Adan can protect you.” “And what do you think of me here? I will just let anyone harm Althea?” I couldn’t stop raising my voice. “Blade, we are facing a demon.” “And you’re saying I’m fucking useless!” “No… I didn’t say that.” Patrea said firmly. “Stop with your rubbish! Don’t go say I love Althea, and I will save her because you can’t! What will you do if he unleashes hell here on earth? Can you protect her? You’re going to fucking burn and die with her!” Lucius hissed at me. “This is your fucking fault!” I bellowed back at him. Althea’s hand went up to my chest,

ALTHEA. “I left and abandoned my pack. I was hoping that by doing so, I could ease myself of the guilt if I gave up one thing that was important to me.” I could hear the pain in his voice. “I’m sorry…” Blade tilted his head and looked at me. He smiled, one that didn’t reach his eyes before his hand reached my face and wiped my tears with his thumb. “You have nothing to be sorry for.” “I’m sorry for your pain. I’m sorry that you thought it was your fault that she was dead. It’s not you, Blade. It’s the people who planned that and killed her. There are people who are just like that. They merely exist with the purpose of bringing pain and misery to others.” “Something that I’d become after she died.” He chuckled bitterly. “For every father, son, friend, and lover that I killed, I was sure many were cursing me and wishing for my death. They didn’t know me personally, but they still hated me.” “But you’re moving on from that part of your life. Remember what Lucius said last night? Red

BLADE. “We need to get Althea out of there! Now!” I roared as I threw all the photos, and they scattered on my desk. In the blink of an eye, Lucius was already in front of my table while I grabbed my phone to call Althea. “He’s Alastor,” Lucius said and nodded his head at Adan. “What did you say his name was? Because this man’s name is Alas Quade!” I slammed my palm on my desk. “And no one thought of saying their names to each other, so we could have figured it out earlier?” Lucy blurted out in exasperation, but I didn’t have time to answer her. “Althea is not picking up her damn phone!” “We’ll go there. I just need a visual of the location. Think of the location. I need the full view. Let me inside your head.” “We can’t just pop up in the middle of a fucking university!” I snapped at him as my heart thundered loudly. I was still trying to call Althea again. “Fuck you! I’ve been a demon for more than two centuries, and you think I have no idea how I should show up in the h

BLADE. Rage was quiet the whole time he was running until we headed toward the end of the university, where I knew the old library stood. He growled loudly as he sped up in that direction. ‘Did you smell her?’ I asked, hoping he would answer me this time. ‘Yes! Her scent was getting stronger.’ He answered at the exact moment an emotion crossed my chest. I was worried since we realized Alas and Alastor were the same person, but I tried to block off any of my feelings so I could freely feel Althea’s emotions if she decided to lower her walls. And she finally did, and it also meant she was nearby. I could sense her fear, and it made me restless. And I had no fucking idea how I would tell the demons floating around me about it. They had been disappearing and appearing from time to time. I was guessing they were looking for her, too, by checking all the other places Rage couldn’t get into. Rage went up the steps of the old library, and I felt the four of them above me. They were al

LUNA LUCY. “I heard him, but I want to make sure nothing will happen in a couple of hours or so,” I answered him. “Luna,” Blade’s Beta Female spoke, and I tilted my head up to look at her. Her eyes were puffy, and I was sure she was the one crying hard earlier. “I can call the infirmary for a request for a blood transfusion in case she loses too much blood. But I don’t know her blood type.” I looked at Patrea, and she shook her head as well. “I don’t know. I know mine, but…” She didn’t continue, but I knew what she didn’t want to say: that Althea and her having the same blood type was a 50/50 chance as they were not related. “Blood transfusions take time,” Adan said. “It is faster if we can have her drink blood instead. I suggest Blade’s blood. It’s the way of the wolves, but I am not sure how it is for witches.” “Witches drink blood, too,” Lucius said. “Not light witches. I do now because I’m part demon. This is a dark act because blood would strengthen the power of the witch,
