LOGINKYLIE'S POVThe three of us did our best to stay close to each other.But the pull of the water was relentless, and it took great effort to fight it off. Even then, they went deeper and deeper into the sea, until we were faced with strange ruins that rose beneath us like drowned cathedrals. Their columns leaned into one another, and were covered in weeds, and all their broken arches were framed with endless black substances. Like moss, but black. I don't know what that was called.
KYLIE's povBoth Jason and Elijah's fathers left by the next morning.I"Do you miss him?" I asked Elijah when we’d returned back to our room, after we'd watched Alpha John and Beta Williams leave."Ah w
KYLIE's povThorne looked at me with worried brows and kind eyes."The sea gods might be looking for strong warriors to be their hosts. And perhaps that's why they look at you and Jason. But they fail to realize that what makes a man strong isn't merely the intensity of their powers, but also their will." Thorne said, and I smiled."They won't be able to take advant
KYLIE's povI had no Idea why that name bothered me so.But what bothered me further was the fact that none of us had spoken to Thorn yet about the sea gods or monsters, but somehow, he was already bringing us information about them .

KYLIE's povI had never been more glad to see the pack land as I was right when we got home.By the time we reached home, Twilight had stretched long shadows across the pack land.

You're already so cold." He whispered gently and I nodded. It was really getting cold anyway.In spite of every restless thing that had drawn me out toward the cliffs earlier, I slept calmly , while being enveloped in Elijah's arms. I think I sometimes take for granted just how safe he actually is.

Elijah asked in a sleepy voice, after I'd stirred and turned for too long."I'm not sure. Must be the sound of the sea gulls crying. They are louder than usual, crying for longer than usual as well." I said softly and reached out to run a hand down my hair."Almost as though they are begging us not to leave."
