Alberto’s POV

My men and I had set up camp on the outskirts of the village, where I did not have to listen to the sound of activity going on.

The wind howled outside, but the air within was unnervingly stiff. The only voice I heard was that of my thoughts, and they were saying not-so-nice things. 

I did not look up when the tent flap opened, and the shadows of three men cast over me.

The fruit knife I was polishing with a silk cloth held more interest than w

    GONZALO’S POVThe floor split open like a wound. Stone screamed. Dust choked the air. And from the dark below, it rose. It wasn’t a devorer. It wasn’t a wolf or even a dog.It was bigger than both. Bigger than a house. Black scales, dripping with old blood and slime. Four arms, each ending in claws as long as swords. A head with no eyes, just a mouth full of teeth inside teeth. It smelled like death that had been buried and dug up again. The room went silent. Even the dogs stopped. Enzo was on his knees, bleeding from the throat, but he was laughing. “Meet my masterpiece,” he gurgled. “The Devourer King. I fed it prisoners for a year. It’s hungry.” The thing lifted its head and roared. The sound shook the walls. More cracks split across the floor. Alberto was already moving. He was hurt, poisoned, bleeding , but he was on his feet. He grabbed Sapphire and shoved her behind him. “Get back!” he ordered. Sapphire didn’t listen. She never did. She pulled a dagge

    KAISER’S POVI couldn’t move. Not my arms. Not my legs. The witch’s magic had me locked in place, chains biting into my wrists, blood drying on my skin. But my mind? My mind was free. I could hear everything. Enzo’s laugh. Sapphire screaming Gonzalo’s name. Alberto choking. And underneath it all , breathing. Not human breathing. Dog breathing . Twelve of them. Hidden in the rafters, in the shadows behind the banners, in the cracks of the stone where Enzo thought no one could fit. I’d put them there hours ago. Before we were captured. Before the dungeon. Before the powder. I’d spent three nights in Enzo’s kitchens pretending to be a maid. I’d left scraps. I’d left blood. And I’d whispered. “When I call, you come. When I call, you kill.” Soul-speaking wasn’t just for people. It worked on beasts too. If you were patient. If you were cruel enough. Enzo had Alberto by the throat. Gonzalo in the other hand. “You will watch,” he said, voice dripping like ho

    GONZALO’S POVThe stairs to the inner keep were wet. Not with water but with blood, my sense of smell couldn’t let that get by me.We took them two at a time. Alberto in front. Sapphire and Kaiser behind me. The men fanned out, shields up. Every step echoed. Every step smelled like iron. At the top, the doors were open. The throne room was massive. Black stone, high ceilings, banners of Enzo’s house ripped down and replaced with something new. Something twisted. Skins. Bones. Trophies. And in the center, on a raised platform of jagged rock, stood Enzo. He wasn’t alone. Twenty devorers lined the walls, crouched, waiting. And around Enzo’s feet, three witches. Their hands glowing faint blue. Their eyes completely white. Enzo clapped slowly when he saw us. “Family reunion,” he said. “How touching.” Alberto didn’t answer. He walked to the center of the room and stopped. Ten feet from Enzo. I stopped at his shoulder. Sapphire and Kaiser stopped behind us, breathing

    GONZALO’S POVThe drainage tunnel stank. Wet stone, rot, and something worse underneath it , the smell of the devorers. Like wet fur and old meat left too long in the sun. We moved in a line. Alberto in front, me right behind him, then five of our best. No torches. No talking. Just the sound of water dripping and our boots in the muck. Alberto looked worse than he should. The bandage on his chest was already dark again. But his eyes? Clear. Cold. The Alpha was back. He raised a fist. We stopped. Up ahead, faint torchlight flickered against the tunnel walls. Voices. Two guards. “...told you he wouldn’t come,” one of them laughed. “Alpha’s probably hiding in some cave, crying over his Luna.” “Shut up,” the other snapped. “Enzo said if they get through, we die.” Alberto didn’t even look back at me. He just moved. Silent. Fast. I followed half a second later. My blade went in under the first guard’s chin. Up. Twist. He dropped without a sound. Alberto’s did the

    KAISER’S POVThe plan was simple, yet my heart raced, not from the pain of hypnotizing one person but because I still was quite uncertain about our ability to win. My message had gotten its way to Gonzalo who would relay it to the Alpha Supreme. My eyes searched the halls with unsteady breathing “When I give the signal” I muttered to Sapphire who moved with as much precision as I, her breathing now stable, unlike mine. “Move to the other side, paralyze the guard like I showed you and I’ll make my way out through the back” I nodded once to notify her and she did the same to confirm that we had a mutual understanding.I had read the guard’s mind and seen the rest of them. There were about ten in the dungeon floor, ten guards for just two women felt incorrigible but he was Enzo, the evader.Moving slowly at the signal I sent, she took out the first two guards with ease, her arm had stopped bleeding and Lyra had covered parts of the perimeter as well. Just as we made our way for the ex

    SAPPHIRE’S POVSomething had changed since Kaiser returned. Her eyes felt solemn at times, yet quite dangerous and her lips , she was quite great in using them to get what she wanted.“Untie us..” her voice slitted like a wandering snake and the man slowly with the pace of a snail for some reason, heeded to her command and loosened the binds, setting her free before he walked towards me and doing the same to mine.“How do we get out of here?” I whispered, breathing slowly and placing my hand on the wall to steady myself and she kept my shoulder over hers.“You alright my lady?” Her voice came through as her body supported mine and I nodded in response.I felt my head spin and my body weaken the moment I placed my foot in front of the other “We..need to get out of here” I breathed.Kaiser paused, the creases on her forehead furrowed with fear “I don’t think you should be moving, not yet” I tried to protest against her but I just couldn't. My body was too strained and weak so I sat dow

    Alberto’s POVI have no idea why I threatened her but a part of me felt drawn and connected to her. I can't explain it, but I wanted her alive at all cost to the point that I didn't realize when I threatened her to live. Lately, I have been feeling tense because my identical twin brother kept doin

    Sapphire’s PovI groaned, turning over the page of the book I was reading. I wasn't much of a reader; I’d never brought myself to like art when I was young. So, me reading was a clear sign that something was wrong—and "wrong" being that I was bored out of my skin.I hadn’t seen Alberto in days, and
