CHAPTER 61

SEBASTIAN'S POVConsciousness returned bearing sorrows untold. I dragged battered limbs from rubble's choking grip, wincing as broken places ground shards within. Where once the glade stood tall now lay blasted bones, smoke's acrid bite staining the air.A faint cry stirred my fading spirit - one yet lived amid the ruins. I scrambled over splintered trunks towards a guttering light, unearthing Matteo pinned underneath crushing timber. His emerald gaze found mine as I strained against imprisonment's dead weight. "..Sebastian. You live..." he croaked, flecking my muzzle with scorching lifeblood as I tore him free at last. I answered only with a ragged nuzzle, too spent for further succor. Together we limped the scorched remains, praying another ally stirred beneath the crumbled bough and toppled tower. Alas, none rose to save the enemy; behind us, their chants swelled in debased worship of the fell colossus enthroned among the slain. Its shadows stretched long, concealing some new ho

CHAPTER 62

SEBASTIAN'S POVThat velvet voice paralyzed my limbs with dread authority, though I railed against its hold. The colossus turned burning pits where eyes should be, fixing their magnetism upon my fighting comrades. We were doomed - yet the pup nestled safe in my jaws, its fate bound with my survival. With a final howl of anguish, I turned from the fray, plunging into the raging waters.Currents seized us in iron claws, pummeling our joined shapes through rapids grown wilful and wrathful. Over fog-shrouded falls we tumbled, the world a blur of roiling white. All seemed lost to the flooding deeps until our battered forms washed ashore miles hence, dusk closing in upon an unknown strand. Gently I crawled from the surf, collapsing amid reeds that hid our landing from any watching eyes. The pup stirred feebly, shivering in my embrace though its flame yet kindled bright. "Have courage, little one," I soothed in a rasp. "Your charge is safe, for now." How long we lay as night fell complet

CHAPTER 63

SEBASTIAN'S POVThe crimson eyes closed in, frenzied breaths steaming the frigid air. Two twisted shapes detached themselves from the forest's consuming shadow, loping towards our small company on all fours like decaying mockeries of the wolf. Our golden guide snarled fiercely, hackles rising in defense. But two against many could only end in defeat - that is if more horrors did not pour forth from the wood's suffocating gloom. The beasts' hunger burned rabid, twisting flesh with a fell intelligence that spoke of a far greater puppetmaster. Our enemy had found us at last in these blighted depths. Despair clawed my resolve, sapping the will to resist further torment. My gaze fell upon the whimpering young taking refuge behind my legs. No, I refused to let them meet such a fate without a battle to the end!A roar tore my throat, drawing chilled air deep into my scarred lungs. My challenge echoed back doubled by our female guardian, calling upon whatever spirits yet walked these corru

CHAPTER 64

ATHENA'S POVI watched the sky grow dark, Sebastian had not yet returned. He never missed dinner without calling to let me know he wasn't returning."Ma'am, the kids are asking for you. They have refused to go to bed without their Father's good night kiss" the nanny said to me."What? Oh..." I said beginning to feel even more worried. At dinner, I had felt really bad, my stomach growled terribly and it was not from hunger. It was more of a hunch, a terrible hunch I could not quite place my finger on.I turned to their nanny and nodded. "I'll talk to them, you don't worry about it. Were you able to clear the tables? Did they drink their milk? What about Night Cookie? Did they have their night cookies?" I needed to find out that all their routines had been cleared and there was nothing left to distract them with. How on earth was I going to cover for their Father's good night kiss? "Everything was covered, Mrs Stone. Even down to the cookies. It was right after that they began asking

CHAPTER 65

SEBASTIAN'S POVThe horrendous cackling she called laughter rose further in the air around us as her army of strange-looking wolves surrounded us. These wolves weren't what you would call regular wolves. There was something about them, something ominous, something old."Lycaons...Sienna, how did you..?" I asked still speechless."I have waited for this moment with all my heart Sebastian Stone and I assure you that I will make this moment worth your while." Her voice was hoarse and somehow it echoed all around us. She wasn't speaking because her lips were not moving at all.She spoke in my head, her voice was in my head, and suddenly a sonic scream went off in my head and I began to scream, the pain brought me to my knees."Boss! Boss?" Mateo panicked kneeling beside me."Now, you will know what pain feels like." She said."No!" A strong masculine voice said breaking the screams in my head."What are you doing?" She asked. This time speaking out."This is not the time and this is not t

CHAPTER 66

SEBASTIAN'S POVAs I walked towards the door, the only image that kept flashing in my head was that of the several locations I had seen and the very near-death werewolf which lay on the laboratory table with thousands of silver-laced needles sticking through it.This was going to be a horrendous event, something we had never dealt with before, Sienna had gone far beyond the edges now. She was hungry for something more than revenge and it made me wonder what this was all about. There was only one person who had the answers to my questions, and she still lived in the one place I had come to despise and dread setting foot in...the Stone Mansion. That place which I had once termed home, now felt like a wasteland I did not want to ever set foot inside.I honked my horn outside the marble gates, she had hired new security."Mr. Stone" -and somehow he recognized me. I watched him nod at me as an acknowledging sign of respect, and then he ran back inside his post and pressed the button which

CHAPTER 67

ATHENA'S POVI waited outside Anna and Hendrix's school during lunch hour. I had already called their teacher and asked for them to be brought out. I sat there tapping my green nail-polished fingers on the stirring awaiting their emergence from the school building.Something was very wrong. Why had Sebastian refused to tell her about what happened to him? We had already been down this road before, and since the last time Sienna attacked the kids, I had not been able to sit still whenever I had to pick them up. I drove straight to the front of the school building and waited. I had come early enough so it was unexpected.I began to have a strange feeling looking over me, a sense that I was being watched. I looked through my side mirror, past the school gates, into the group of cedar trees planted across the street from where the school stood.I kept watching the trees for over five minutes looking for shadows or a slight movement that would crack my hunch as right or wrong. I felt a sti

CHAPTER 68

SEBASTIAN'S POVI looked at my mother with an unwavering gaze expecting her to tell me everything I needed to know about her alliance with Sienna mad what she had been planning all along. What did Sienna want with Lycans? And why was she experimenting with silver on werewolves?"Sienna and the Lycaons?" She repeated to herself again as though the first time I said it had no effect or made no perfect sense to her."I do know anything about Sienna and the Lycaons or why do you think I should know something about that " she replied"Bullshit mother, bullshit and you know it. You worked with Sienna for years, you can't tell me you didn't for once catch wind of her fancies or where she went or whom she spoke with or what she did when I wasn't around." I accused her"I was your mother, not her servant. I couldn't keep the girl under lock and key, she had her freedom and often visited her Father's house you know " she said to me."Why are you asking all these anyway?" She asked." Because I

CHAPTER 69

SEBASTIAN'S POVI sat still watching her, I was affected by it but everything but my expressions reflected how I felt. I stared blankly at her...her worn eyes, the newly formed wrinkles around the edges of her eyes. Even her warm smile which I rarely saw had disappeared.Where was the strength of the Luna I once knew? But even in her frailty, I could still see sheer stubbornness written all over her eyes, a resilience that said she was still alive because she had refused to give in to the hands of death itself.She had battled, a tired warrior was all I saw and now even while I watched her twist her cane steadily on the cold, white tiled floor, her words rang unbelievably in my ears, "I am dying""What...what..." I could not even find the words to ask the question, but she knew."Cervical cancer, stage one. It is...quite high on the edge now" she replied."Why didn't you tell me? How long have you known about this?" I asked confused and uncertain of what my reaction was meant to be."

CHAPTER 70

ATHENA'S POINT OF VIEWI helped the nanny serve Anna and Hendrix their lunch. They had been asking questions since I picked them up from school before they could even have their lunch break. Anna was the most inquisitive of the two."Mummy, is something wrong?" She had asked earlier on when I tried to help her out of her schoolwear."No honey, why do you ask?" I asked helping her out of her favorite pink jelly underwear."You never pick us up from school until later and...Hendrix said I had an episode again the night before, " her little sweet innocent voice said to me. I couldn't help but feel sorry that I could. not give her the answers she requested simply because they were too hard to explain.I did not have those answers for myself. Everything felt wrong the air, the way Sebastian was behaving, my nightmare, and the horrible, life-sizing, scary situation that had happened with Anna the previous night.I lifted her off the bed and did the smooth spin around I usually did when she
