FAZER LOGINKIERAN As I walked into the council building flanked by two guards, the double oak doors of the high council chamber didn't just open, the force used to open them made them slam against the walls like a gunshot, echoing through the silence of the room.The scent of all the emotions of the room hit me as I marched into the heart of the chamber, my boots clicking against the stone.“ Welcome, Commander Vale,” Elder Auriel said, his voice smooth and polished like all the gold he likes wearing.He said at the middle of the crescent moon shaped table, his fingers gently tapping the table, flanked by the four silent other Elders of the high council.“We were just discussing the security breach, I'm sure you're aware of that, that's why you were invited today. He clears his throat and continues. “It seems your invincible barracks has turned into a graveyard, and your Ex - Luna who is supposed to be under trial amd your watch has vanished under your watch.” He flips the page of his book aga
RONAN The light humming of the equipment that kept Ethan alive woke me up.I shook my head trying to force my eyes to stay open, trying to clear sleep that wanted to pull me back.This new place felt smaller than the former one, the air smells new. “What are the symptoms of Ethan?” I murmured, the question slipped out of me again.My voice sounded small and sleep-deprived, and barely recognizable to myself. I could remember little pieces of Kieran bringing me up.Dax didn't look up from scrolling on his laptop, but he shifted his gaze to Kieran for a bit there,like a secret signal passed between them. “ Hyper-aggression, very vivid hallucinations, and a slight breakdown of the prefrontal cortex,” Dax replied, his voice flat and clinical like a judge delivering a death sentence.“In other words, Ronan, his wolf, is being forced to eat his humanity alive, that's what being Rogue entails. If the heart doesn’t give out from the chemical stress, the mind will.”I looked at Ethan’s pale,
KIERAN As the soldiers and I walked about the hospital, someone shouted from the supply room, “She’s in the air vents.” as the squad of soldiers rushed to the part of the hospital were it led out to.I walked there myself, having mapped out the whole hospital in my head. I stood beneath it, my claws extended with a rage like I've never felt before causing my chest to heave.She's gone.The woman who has just orchestrated three counts of attempted murder, my mate, her mate and me, vanished from my very own fortress.“ Search the outer perimeter!” I roared into the comms.“Check the security videos, now! I want to know who helped her out of here!”“Kieran,” Dax’s voice crackled through the static, sounding a little hesitant. “The CCTV camera for that area of the hospital went dark a few minutes ago, they were stoned from a distant.” My blood ran cold.Rhea had not met with anybody during her imprisonment, he did not have the claws to do that to the vent, someone was helping her right un
RHEA “ Get him laid down flat.” The doctors barked orders,boots scrambled across the ruins,through the chaos of it all, I watched as Ethan's breath came slower and slower.The pain in my heart was enough to bring me to my knees.“ he's stable now, let's move him to the hospital, gentle.” They shoved a cart of supplies past me. As if i wasn't even thereEthan just laid there, a pale, sweating shell of a man who had wanted to protect me with everything he had.I didn’t feel pity, i felt insulted he was supposed to be the weapon, meant to destroy Kieran and now he was nothing but a broken toy of no use to me.If he could'nt kill for me, he was as useless as the rest of the world.Time to escape, i has to vanish during this chaos or i wouldn't be able to, i dropped my head letting my hair fall over my face as i spied Kieran and Ronan together fawning over each other, disgusting.I croaked my throat as i pressed my fingers into my throat wanting to force a gag, as i began to retch forcing
ETHAN The world became fuzz, I was on a gurney, the ceiling lights passing over me like flashlights.Everything the wheels went over a bump my head felt like a crumbling mountain.The white walls were replaced by heavy shadows of Eldenridge. A few years back.“Open this door, Rhea, I know you're in there.” The voice in my head wasn't the rational wolf everyone knew me to be. I was furious.“Mr. Hale? Can you hear me? Press the oxygen! He's crashing!” A medic’s voice drifted in from the real.world, desperate and tiny but it was wavy like it was miles away.I was watching a memory I had been forced to bury under layers of forced suppression, surface the night i discovered who she was.Then I saw her. Rhea, she wasn't the victim I thought I was protecting.She was stepping oit the Guest house room of Eldenridge after Kieran took me back. I went back just to have some closure. But this time I climbed up the walls instead to walking into the establishment.I saw Magnus Vale, adjusting he
RONAN I couldn't stand to watch it while i wait for the man who shared my painful days in the neutral slums to tear out the heart of the man who had given me a home in his own heart.My body moved before my brain could even find a reason to stop, I didn't scream or even beg for mercy it was like a dead part of my brain suddenly woke up.I lunged, muscles tore through the invisible weight of Ethan’s Alpha bark as if it were nothing but thin air.As Ethan's claws pierced through Kieran's chest in a dangerous strike, I rushed forward with a speed I didn’t know i was capable of.The sound was a wet, sickening sound. “No!” Kieran's voice was a choked agonizing rasp as Ethan's claws pinned my palms against Kieran's chest, I didn't know how I got there that fast.Ethan froze, his entire frame vibrating with a toxic sound.On grabbing his hand I saw that my blood dripped , as it splashed on the side of my neck.The mark Kieran had given me when we mated, the mark that was still fresh. The ai
KIERAN The word LIAR is burnt into the back of my eyelids, when I see it.I didn't watch the workers erase it from Ronan's locker, I didn’t need to , the way they had written it was so thick I could smell it halfway from the hallway, the chemical, sharp , ugly smell.Someone wanted it to last, som
RONANThe Evaluation hall feels too crowded, I could see some lesser Alphas chewing their nails at the door , scared to enter, it feels like an execution chamber.Rows of students fill the bleachers, buzzing with nervous excitement and curiosity. The banner and decorations have been put up with a b
Ronan The tribunal doors slams closed behind me, a cold relief filling my bones, for a second the world feels too bright, too open and loud.As I walk into the school's main building,the whispers begin, starting first as a soft ripple then it's charged.“ That's him,”“ the violent one, never pegg
The chamber of trialsThe Tribunal chamber feels colder the moment we step inside.A high-celiinged stone hall. Blue flames licking the walls.The Eldenridge banner waving from side to side as a quiet breeze hummed through the halls.And at the centre, carved into the floor, the crescent moon, The
