*ASA TRINE*Somehow there has been an increase in a tension in the air than what it had been before. It almost felt suffocating to stay in the same room as Cain and Devin.“What is wrong with your man this time?” Leia asked as she looked at me watching the two of them running around as if competing to see who could fill the trunk of the car first.“He is jealous,” I drily replied back as I massaged my back that had taken the brunt of this situation all night long last night.“Even after that session that you both had in the wee hours of morning?” Leia asked giggling as she sat down on the step beside me making my eyes widen in embarrassment. Did she hear us?Hiding my face I looked away as I asked, “Were we too loud?”“No you weren’t but I was crossing from in front of your door last night and then I could hear it,” she continued to laugh at my expense and finally sorting her smile she said, “But still is Devin really the reason why Cain seems so on edge?”“It seems so,” I sighed m

*ASA TRINE*A thrill such as this I had never experienced before.My nerves were still crawling all over my body from the excitement and a never wavering happiness that came with every acceleration of his motorcycle.“Are you enjoying yourself?” Devin shouted his voice muffling from the helmet and the wind but thanks to my wolf ears I was able to catch it. Smiling in agreement as we zoomed past some more vehicles skillfully scoring the road in a patterned manner making me sway my body one side to the other as the beautiful slender machine guided me.“Yes!” I shouted back to let him know of my over crazed mind and free spirits that hadn’t felt this liberated in a long while. I was sure that Devin had been driving more than a lot over the speed limit but I could care less about that in this moment.‘Do you trust him that much?’ Xara’s voice echoed in my head making me feel slightly disoriented and surprised having heard her voice after a long time. Her question made me wonder if I actua

*ASA TRINE* Alpha had been true in his words when he had said that he would send a troop of warriors that would be ready to help us but would stay hidden in the shadows until needed. That bit had scared me a little for their safety but on talking to them before I had left I realized that they didn’t really care whether anything happened to them as long they could somehow serve the pack and save it from the demon. They had been surprised and slightly unhinged at first but had taken an active support later on in doing anything to help their Alpha and pack loving and respecting them al equally. Such people were not many but a total of five. They were still reliable and the only source of any comfort to us then. “Are you sure we should take such a risk?” Cain asked frowning as he helped me set up our camp. We had come here a few hours early to the general preparations that Elder Morris had asked us to do so that the demon would get further weakened. This task was going to take some tim

*ASA TRINE* How did he know?Was he already aware of the weapon?‘He must have been, you can’t underestimate him,’ Xara muttered in my head, standing on alert ready to be of use whenever needed.Breaking through the surface of water the five again tried to swim to the shore but like every effort they had made before they were once again been sent into the depths of the water. At this rate they would soon get tired and then lose their strength to even try to come up automatically resulting in death.His knowledge of the dagger had shaken me a little and it had left me with no footing to base my next attack on him.“Ephialtes, this has always supposed to be a one on one fight,” I said staring at the mass of blackness that was gurgling and rising with the fear that the poor wolves emanated, “Let them go!”“You shouldn’t have brought them with you to begin with,” he said pausing a second to let them breathe as the huffed and coughed at the water that must have entered into their lungs.

*ASA TRINE* What? But how could that be possible? If he was the strongest today then how could I possibly defeat him? “But that isn’t possible,” I whispered making him laugh more in a sinister way. The fear was only now starting to grip me as I looked on ahead in the darkness of his body that was only growing and growing. “She lied to you,” he said making my heart freeze. He was lying, why would the goddess lie to me? Why would she push me into the death’s mouth? Something must be wrong here! But I didn’t have time to find out this time for now I knew that getting out of here would be more useful to me at this moment. Looking around I spotted something that gave me some hope. It was the same white powder that I had spilt before. I had then thought of it to be an unfortunate event but this would be my only last resort. I felt him come close to me when suddenly I heard Cain’s voice in my head, 'Asa, we need to get out of here.’ ‘I know.’ Formulating a plan in my head I said, ‘L
