"Everything is settled," Athalia said after hanging up the phone talking with her Dad. Foire looked at her then nodded. They already arranged a carriage for Solana as her transport for crossing the border.
"Illac wants her back after a while," Foire said looking away. Athalia's forehead scrunched, she does not get what runs through Illac's brain at all.
"Why does he want that?"
"Who knows, I do not understand him at all," Foire said sighing. As a matter of fact, Foire wants Solana to stay inside the border, he still has not forgiven her for defeating him two times in a row, but, he cannot go against Kala's request. He thought that an opportunity will kick in so he can have her revenge on her but not now. He can wait of course, given his strength, if he and Solana fight now, he is still nothing compared to her. He gets that now. He will need to be stronger than ever.
"Dad will come here personally," Athalia said that leave Foire
"Did you hear? Foire is going to announce something. Werewolves, especially beta presence are needed," "Really? What is it all about?" "Words are spreading that there was an Alpha hiding inside the border for years, she is the last of them all," "What a load of crap, that can't be true," "Who knows? Maybe it is," "Let's hear what Illac has to say, you know I do not like that Foire, he is not fit to be a leader," "Words are spreading fast," Lucas said while looking at the two werewolves talking. Blair nodded, of course, it is. Word had spread through Gehena as well, necromancers who live there are intrigued whether or not it is true. Ghouls in Imperial also has a share of their content saying that they have once seen a scarlet-eyes wolf running around. Things are being heated, now Foire, what kind of play are you going to do to make them believe you? Blair can't wait to find out what will happen later at dawn. "Let's
"They are not kidding," "How can this happen?" "It really is an Alpha," "Did Foire beat that Alpha? I heard that she is from the Velvela Clan..." "No way... their clan is insanely powerful," Foire was smirking. He cannot stop feeling so satisfied with what he is hearing right now. It has been so long since someone has praised his capabilities. He looked at Blair who is standing right in front of the crowd, she was smiling at him. Solana was still out, because of Blair's tele magic, they got to Satan in a matter of seconds. Blair said that Solana will be out for five minutes or less, so Foire just needs to wait before he starts his announcement. Solana's eyes gradually open up. The large crowd in front of her was filled with excitement and terror. An Alpha right before their eyes, it had been so long since they have seen one. Some are afraid but some seek her power. I order to do that, they should battle with her to de
"He still proceeded huh," Illac said humming as he sips champagne. Elliot nodded, for what reason, Illac, and Foire are competing against who should lead the border, and of course, it is necessary to pick sides, that is what this is all about when you are on the supernatural border. All that matters is whose side are you on. "I see you are not with your damsels," Illac shrugged. He does not have any lingering time to be flirtatious right now. His brother needs to be lectured, that is his priority. "I have some important matters to handle, Elliot," he answered. Elliot nodded pouring himself some champagne to drink with Illac. "If you say so," Elliot said them pursed his lips after sipping the champagne he poured for himself. "Why did you not stopped Foire?" Elliot asked. Illac turned his attention to him, there is no way he can be stopped. "Just because," "Are you not afraid that he would be the one t
When Blair and Foire came around, Solana was gone and the only thing that is left is a letter. "They took her," Foire said hissing. It is all Illac's fault that he did not get the chance to talk with Kala. He wonders what his brother came for snapping their necks like that. "Who?" Blair said holding her neck, she was shocked at what Illac did. What the hell is he thinking? "Kala, they already took her," Foire repeated. He stood up then looked at Blair with his lips pursed. "Fuck this," he muttered. Blair is not saying anything. Foire is a ticking time bomb right now. He is mad that his brother snapped their necks just to talk with Solana who knows the reason why and that he was not able to have a talk with Kala. "Stop being so fed up," Blair said. She stood up from lying on the ground then looked at Foire sharply. "You will get your chance," she added. Foire just looked at her and said nothing.
[flashback two years ago] "Alina!" Linda shouted. They were getting ready for a road trip since Alina's sister graduated junior high already. "Yes, mom! I am coming!" Alina responded. They plan on going to the biggest fest down Scorch Hills. Maeve thought that it would be a great way to celebrate that she is an upcoming senior like her sister. "Hey, mom, do you know where Mr. Dunckles is?" Maeve asked Linda. Linda's attention turned to her and pursed her lips. "Mr. Dunckles? No, honey, I am pretty sure it is just somewhere around your room," "But it is not there!" Maeve said then pouted. "Why don't you check it out again, huh?" "Are you not too old for Mr. Dunckles? You will be senior, Maeve," Alina said to her sister as she goes down the stairs. "Oh shut up, Alina," Maeve said chuckling. Alina laughed as well and went directly to Linda and gave her a kiss on the cheeks. "Everything
"Are we there yet?" Asked Maeve. She was sitting at the back of the truck while keeping Mr. Dunckles close to her chest. Denise has been driving for almost an hour now, their town is at least an hour and a half away from Scorch hills, the fest will not start until midnight so they have a lot of time to waste in their hands. "No, sweetie, why don't you sleep a little?" Linda said to Maeve. She pursed her lips then formed a smile, Mave nodded at her. She slowly closed her eyes holding Mr. Dunckles tightly. Alina was quiet, for some reason something about this trip does not sit right with her. At first, she thought that maybe this would be fun and keep them closer but that feeling she felt earlier was almost uncertain if there is anything good that would come out in this trip. She looked at Maeve who is fast asleep, this trip is for her. She worked so hard during junior high and managed to come on top, she deserves this. All of a sudden, Alina'
"I- I am going back at the truck. Excuse me," Alina said hastily and turned her back. Maeve and her parents looked at each other. They nodded and went after Alina. They know that something is up and she does not want to talk about it, however, they are worried that she may be suffering from a trauma or what psychiatrists call them. Alina was running, her hearing, she did not realize at first because the music was the only thing she is hearing but all of a sudden when she turned her back, she can hear everything even if it's miles away from her. Aline covered her ears while running. She wants it to stop. “Stop! Please!” She said crying. She heard the footsteps of at least two persons coming after her. She looked behind her and saw Maeve with her parents. They were running and catching their breath. Why did they come after her? She could be dangerous, so why did they come after her? "Do not come near me!" Alina shouted. Maeve was shock
[end of the flashback] "She is in shock," Blade said to Kala. He turned his attention back to Solana who is not moving an inch nor blinking. "She must have been overwhelmed with the memories," Kala said then smirked. They have reached humanity's border and are on their way to where Solana killed the Mcguire's. Eventually, Solana will give in to Kala's wishes. It would be a waste of talent if he kills Solana so he will put her up to a test to see whether or not she can be used, and used, Kala meant manipulated. The moment they entered Scorch Hills, Kala cannot help but smirk so widely. If he managed to manipulate Solana into his doings, then he will not just have fourteen supernatural under his bidding, he will have fifteen. "Are we there yet?" Kala asked. The chauffeur nodded. They parked at the same place where the incident happened, the incident where the Mcguire's were killed by none other than, Solana Velvela. Kala
