All Chapters of Second Chances: Chapter 21 - Chapter 25

I felt the sun wan slowly behind the fabric of the darkened curtains as I laid underneath the satin sheet on my bed. My head rested on the pillow while my arm rested under my neck. I rolled over and stared at the ceiling while my thoughts were at war with what to do about the plan to end this charade with Gabriel. I hated the idea of everyone that I was close to get hurt and being holed up like animals when the reality was that we had done nothing wrong. Sarene had been forced to make the decision that very day because Gabriel sought out revenge for what had happened at the labs. The truth was this, I was scared. Scared of going into that place where the scientists had created us. The first line of vampires that had existed. Me and Gabriel and possibly more who had died trying. It made me wonder if Sarene and her parents were apart of what they were doing. The urge to ask her was strong but the Remus pack had a close eye on us the whole time but we also had access to th

An hour had passed and we were already on our way to the road that we spoke of.

"Given his state of mind at this very moment," Marcus said in return to Blake's comment, "He isn't really the Flash. Moments before the explosion, Sarene had linked me stating that she had drugged him on order to get him in the dungeons. His speed isn't the greatest and what she had given him will last at least a few hours." A few hours isn't going to cut the deadline. Who knows what he has in mind after it wears off." Nora piped in. "We need to find him and end this before he exposes our race of extistence." "I'd rather die than let that ever occur," Marcus replied. "I understand from his perspective that Gabriel wants revenge over an incident that happened centuries ago." Marcus' gaze went to me as he spoke and I felt as though he was trying to tell somethig silently but I didn't know what. I gave him a small shrug and
