Semua Bab Soulless Seas: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Asteria POV.“My song? How is this possible?” I ask as I crash backwards into a hard chest as I’m lifted and placed on his lap. His hands soothe me as I wait for her to speak.“We believe the recordings of your songs have been stolen. We had a breach and all the encrypted files about you were lost. We thought at first they were deleted, but no. They have been stolen.” She says as she sits down across from me and I look at her before looking around the table and see the angry faces of the head members of the Supernatural Council.“How long ago was this?” Carter asks as I try to process what this means. That song is dangerous and if used in the way that these Russians will use it. It will be devastating. Governments and the world could fall.“Two months ago. We had a lead, and we were close, but then. Who ever is responsible for this went dark. We lost the lead and now this. The Russians are going to lure you out.” I lean back against Carter.“If they have my song, then they don’t need

Carter POV.The explosion was heard and felt here. I jumped up and ran towards the door. Lykos howls in my head as we push past people to get outside, and I see the billowing smoke in the distance. My eyes widen as I run towards Fenrir.“Where is she? Where is Asteria?” I shout when he looks out over the water. No! I shake my head as I turn and run towards one of the trawlers.“I need every available crew member now!” I shout as I run up the gangway on to the trawler. Men and woman run around, making the ship ready to head out.“Captain, we need to head out now!” I say and he gives his orders when Fenrir and the rest pile up on to the bridge as the captain calls the coast guard for assistance before we head out against his orders.We move as fast as the trawler will allow, but kill the engines not too far away. The smoke billows and I can hear the faint cries of the crew that are in the water.“Help them out of the water.” I shout, and men and women start helping grab survivors from t

Carter POV.My company has been taken over by the damn military. I am waiting outside my conference room because the MPs won’t let me enter.I hear a crash and barge inside. The MPs try to grab me but I move away from them to see Asteria has split the table in half.“Asteria, what’s going on?” I rush to her and she turns to me with a hiss and I stop as she partially shifts.“We have been played, that’s what. That damn bitch has played us.” I look at her in confusion. She groans and rolls her eyes at me like I’m thick.“Who?” I ask her when she grabs a chair and throws it at the wall.“That bitch Triston. She isn’t military. Well, not from here anyway. Where is she?” She screams as her chest rises and falls rapidly before she starts laughing.“I’m such a fucking idiot. She came to you knowing you would somehow be able to contact me. She set this up. She fucking played with me. Oh well, she is going to know what it is to be fucking played when I get a hold of her.” There is no speaking

Asteria POV.This was a bad idea. The last time I was at Carter’s home was when I found him fucking both Sephone and Bethany. I stop at the front door as the rest pile inside. Carter looks at me from the door and comes closer to me.“I know this is difficult for you after the last time you were here. I understand why you don’t want to come inside. The interior is no longer the same. I had everything remodelled. I had everything removed from what happened that night. If you want, we can go to my other house, but it isn’t finished yet.” He says and I take a deep breath and walk forward and through the door. I can’t let what happened in this very house affect me anymore.I walk inside and I’m shocked to see the changes. The only things that are the same are the floor to ceiling windows facing the ocean. Everything else has been changed. The living room has a huge built in fish tank and the room is painted in delicate colours of soft greys. Originally it was white, sterile. The art work l

Asteria POV.I chuckle to myself, seeing him standing beside her. I look at him, then to her, and smile.“Well, isn’t this cosy? I’m sure General Collins will love this. So tell me. Sorry I didn’t get your name the last time I saw you.” I say as I move further into the room, my siren senses picking up on more movement, but I don’t take my eyes off him.“Whatever your name is, it is not relevant. You can betray your commanders and your country, but that is what humans do, yes? They always betray their own.” I say as I stop with my feet apart and my trident at my side. The wolves and my people slowly fan out, surrounding them.“You will pay for what you did.” He points at me, raising his gun and I tilt my head to the side.“What I did? I don’t even know who you are to even offend you. But no matter.” I shrug and he becomes twitchy when Maria holds her hand up and he relaxes.“You killed her!” he shouts at me and I sigh loudly, like this is boring me, but all it does is make him angry, w
