*Asa Trine*“I hate sleeping with the lights on,” I said rubbing my eyes barely feeling like I had gotten any sleep at all. Last night had been more chaotic than I would like to admit as I kept feeling as if I had eye son me. The windows in the room had been shut close and yet they had been frosted over as if it had been snowing over. It was a relief that we hadn’t switched off the light and Elder Morris had sent me another Moonstone powder pendant to help keep me protected.I had felt bad to receive this particular pendant because Cain had later told me that this particular pendant had belonged to Elder Morris himself and he had given sent it to me as soon as he had heard about what had happened. He had wanted to come too but he knew that without the pendant it would be easy for Ephialtes to try and harm him and that would only lead to more hindrance and he didn’t want to become an obstacle to us and had therefore stayed back at home and had been praying for us along with the other E

*ASA TRINE* His raspy voice almost instantly made all the hair in my body stand up and looking at his soulless eyes I wondered if he could see through my façade. The air had significantly dropped down around me and if Ephialtes had not been present here I would have been much intrigued to observe such a sudden change in my surroundings “Why? Aren’t you going to say something to me this time?” he asked swishing slightly to the left and the right making me flit my eyes to make sure that he hadn’t been able to sneak up an attack on me. “I don’t want to waste my time talking to you, let’s get on with the fighting,” I said hoping that reverse psychology would work on him as well as I noticed him pause and stare at me while I forced my face to stay impassive. “I don’t like that look in your eyes,” he gnawed out his words narrowing his pathetic pearls to look at me as he continued, “I quite like it more when they had been shut closed scared to even face me.” I wanted to look up at the

*ASA TRINE*“No...”I said for the first time in a while as I felt my voice return to me. I knew that I wasn’t conscious and that part scared me more for if I wasn’t consciousness then I must be dead for the goddess to visit me.She didn’t look anything extraordinary as I stared at the bright mass of light that had been blinding to me before. This light unlike Ephialtes had taken a much proper shape like that of a human and had long wispy hair of light floating all round her being. Her yes had been white as well but again unlike Ephialtes they didn’t look soulless they looked full of life.I felt blessed to have seen her but just the thought of what would it mean to be to see her meant made tears spill out of my eyes as I fell to my knees in front of her. None of my wounds hurting anymore and I wished for them to pain and hurt me again, anything that would tell me that I had been alive.“Please Goddess, let me live, please id don’t want to die just yet,” I pleaded pathetically the fac

*ASA TRINE* Clay had disappeared away as mysteriously he had come and right now my brain had been combusting at the possibility of what was happening. Why did I feel those things that I would have only with a mate? What did it mean? “Asa? Are you alright?” Devin came in soon after Clay had dropped me off at the entrance of the pack house only to hide back into the crowds of people. Looking around for him I tried to see those same blue eyes that had once been the reason of my tears and later the cause of my determination to solve this mystery. I wonder what he must be thinking right now and whether he had been okay. ‘What is wrong with us Asa? I can feel a connection to Clay just as much as I can feel a connection to Cain but I feel as if my body is being torn apart in both directions,’ Xara panted in my head making me aware of my own body’s condition. Now that she said I had been feeling a slight pain in my chest since i got off the car and this must be the reason behind it. ‘Th

*ASA TRINE* “No, wait, did you bring the bag of chips that I had kept on the table?” I asked stopping Cain as he looked at me and shaking his head in negative, he said, “Just give me a minute, I’ll be right back!” It had been two days since we had gotten back and thankfully the crowd had started straying away from us a slight bit for us to decide on going on a picnic today. Another thing that had been something really good was Cain’s carefreeness. He had been smiling more and he didn’t look like he had to be on his toes every moment of his life. I think a huge credit goes to Clay and I rejecting each other. This weird phenomenon had also seemingly improved his outlook of his brother as he didn’t seem to be worried about his presence around us anymore though it didn’t mean that he became any less possessive. Looking back at our home I waited for him to come back but it was taking him longer than I had thought, and I wondered if I had actually brought the chips with me. Looking
