MasukSage."From here," Strahovsky said again, like the words tasted strange in her mouth.I stared at the open skull. At the wet gray tissue glistening under the fluorescent light. "From here meaning what? This world? This city?""I don't know yet." She picked up a long, thin probe and touched it to the tissue with the same care she'd give a sleeping child. "What I do know is that it's not indigenous to whatever biosphere he came from. This strain has markers I've seen before.""Where," Dominic said. Not a question. A demand dressed up as one.Strahovsky didn't look at him. "You know where, Alpha."The room went quiet in a way that had weight to it. I felt it press against my back teeth."Say it," Dominic said."The Void-Salt pathogen. The one in your pack's water supply." She finally lifted her eyes to him. "Same genetic backbone. Different payload, different delivery, but the same hand built both of them."My stomach dropped. I looked at Dominic and found nothing on his face. Nothing at
SAGE.My nerves were shot. Even after I had showered, I was still unable to relax. There was a form of nervous excitement coursing through me as Dominic drove.It was hard not to imagine what I would come across when I saw the anatomy of Saturn. I felt so guilty about how curious I was. "I can smell guilt from you," Dominic remarked as he pulled over in front of an old building that looked half like a warehouse and half like a library.It was not until we got inside that I realized that it was a large spacious morgue. I cringed by macabre it all looked.It was cold and reeked of chemicals that stung my nose."Lower your senses," Dominic offered kindly as he walked like he owned the place. I could tell that he had been here before countless times.A blond young woman with cold blue eyes was in a white lab coat on her shoulders was setting up silverwares that were meant to cut open the crimson corpse laid on the sturdy iron shiny dissecting table. I had seen her before but I could not
SAGE.It felt like I had betrayed him by doubting him. I had seen Saturn at his most powerful and it was a disturbing sight to behold.Now, at my feet, he laid dead and bleeding. What made the whole thing more shocking was that Dominic had killed him without changing into his wolf. It felt so exhilarating watching him fight. There was a beauty and grace to the way he danced with his twin curved swords. My Twilight Eyes detected no life in Saturn but I could still see the remnants of magic and strength in his dead body.He was going to remain like this forever. My Eyes revealed to me. Saturn was never going to decay.Argos materialized beside the two of us. "You two have made quite a mess." Dominic smiled."Apologies." He replied."I hope we are not getting anymore visitors." The hotel manager muttered as he inspected Saturn's body."Don't keep your hopes up." Dominic stated and handed his curved blade to Argos."The specialist will have a lot of bodies to dispose off today." Argos c
DOMINIC.I had watched him while as fought and took down my Betas and Deltas.He had a pattern of fighting that told me that he was desperate and running out of time. He needed to Sage for something and I truthfully did not care what it was. He was dying by my hands this day.I gripped my curved sabres tightly in my hands and looked up at him. He was a giant but what he had in sheer, brute strength, I made up for in speed.I watched the Silver Spear in his hand as it cackled with lightning. It was not as vibrant as before. He was using the lightning less and less as the fight went on."Whatever Sage is to you is of no concern to me." I told him."Your invasion ends here.""Arrogant words from a mere ant." Saturn replied, his voice filled to the brim with hate and venom.He charged, thrusting his spear at him with a blinding speed. I parried with my right Sabre, directing the force of his lethal jab away from my chest.He pulled back his spear and jabbed at me faster than the first ti
Sage.I got to the ground safely and opened up my senses to find Dominic. The smell of burning metal was thick in the air which meant that Saturn was close.I followed the smell with a anxious desperation. I came upon an open ground where I saw the corpses of fallen werewolves. My heart leaped to my chest as I watched. Holes were on the ground and smoke
Sage.The Centaur pivoted to hard to the right and turned his hind legs to me, kicking them out violently.I tensed up for the strike but felt nothing as his kick sent me flying on my back. I twisted in the air and landed softly on my feet.I lunged at him with a primal growl and the shock wave of my vocals hit him in the chest which sent him through four walls.I cringed inwardly at the damages that were piling up for Argos to clean up. This time, it took him a bit longer to get up. I ran to where he had fallen and found him staggering to his four hooves. He was covered in dust and debris.He turned to me and I could see the cold glare in his eyes. "I give you my most heartfelt apology." He said." I have disrespected you by underestimating just how powerful you are. It will not happen again." Kiron pulled out his bow and shoot arrows at me with lethal accuracy. Twelve arrows tore through the air at me.My instincts kicked in and went into over drive. The Source flowed through me.
